Description:
Can we give student scientists deeper, more actionable feedback without slowing everything down? Middle school science teacher, Valerie Pumala, will show how she uses AI to generate strengths plus guiding questions grounded in student writing—fueling quick revision cycles and improving personalization for students.

* See before/after examples from a real assessment.

* Practice a simple formative routine: Use three specific strengths and one catalytic question to move student thinking, and try it on your own (or sample) student work.

* Take-home: a ready-to-use 3S+Q prompt set and a short coaching checklist.
