AI Tools for Faculty
WOU Assignment Design Assistant Gem
This AI-powered consultant guides you through the TiLT (Transparency in Learning and Teaching) framework to eliminate academic jargon and clarify expectations. Whether you are polishing an old prompt or brainstorming a new idea from scratch, the assistant helps ensure every student has a clear path to success.
How the Process Works:
- Step 1: Choose Your Mode – Select a Quick Polish, a Deep Dive, or Brainstorm a new idea based on your learning objectives.
- Step 2: Pick a Student Mirror – See your assignment through the eyes of a first-gen freshman, a senior, or a custom student group you describe.
- Step 3: Guided Thinking – Answer a few targeted, one-at-a-time questions to bridge gaps between your purpose, task, and criteria.
- Step 4: Get Your Prompt – Receive a polished, TiLTed assignment—complete with an AI policy and accessibility check—ready for Canvas.
