MootDACH25: AI Assisted Rubric creation

I propose a plugin to use AI to Generate a rubric based on an assignment description. It could take the form of a new Advanced Grading method which pulls in the assignment description and uses it to manipulate the rubric levels and criteria. Ideally this would be a dialoge, i.e. it would suggest a rubric and the user could then tweak the description that would then be written back to the public description. I have done several Advanced grading methods in the past and the API is horrible but the benefits to teachers and users is significant. What do people think?

I used an AI to generate ideas for a rubric recently and it seems it is a task that AI is suited to.

I think this would make sense and it would be useful. The default prompt should be teacher-editable (or admin?), so that it can be adjusted to the pedagogical tastest of the teacher (constructivist/pragmatist/etc rubric creation).

Hi Marcus and Heikki,
this idea would help to use the rubrics.
It should be teacher-editable and how is it possible to make sure, that the rubric is following the "constructive alignement"? The idea of a dialogue with the teacher makes sense. Students should be graded by rubrics which fit to the goal of the assignement and what they learned.
