First, a powerful argument from @daisychristo.bsky.social for ditching over-prescriptive rubrics which don't actually help you judge student work effectively. (Also a counter-intuitive finding that essays with more factual errors are often better!). substack.com/inbox/post/1...

A very good read here.

As with everything in life, there is a correlation between number of attempts and number of failures, so the AI result isn’t surprising.

We need to think carefully about our marking rubrics so they don’t unintentionally discourage our students from making the attempts.
