Teaching is hard, but grading can be easy
How Avalon's Self-Grading Works
This collaborative approach transforms grading from evaluation into a learning opportunity.
Step 1: AI Grades
Step 2: Self-Assessment
Before seeing the AI grades, students independently evaluate their own work using the same rubric, fostering metacognition and deeper understanding.
Step 3: Grade Comparison
Step 4: Discrepancy Reports
Students submit discrepancy reports for score mismatches. Instructors review only disputed cases. 99%+ rubric item agreement with AI scores.
Our "Symphony Model" for image & handwriting understanding
Avalon leverages an advanced, custom-built AI engine designed to decipher and grade handwritten submissions, complex diagrams, and diverse visual content with exceptional accuracy.
Real-World Example: AP Biology - CFTR Protein Pathway
Avalon's AI accurately assesses complex biological concepts, providing detailed feedback on multi-part questions, even with visual components.
Perfect understanding of protein synthesis pathway and cellular trafficking. All three parts answered with accurate identification of rough ER and mutant protein location.
3/3 points
Strong grasp of the secretory pathway and ribosome location. Part (c) about mutant protein location was not addressed.
2/3 points
Only identified the correct ribosome location. The pathway drawing and mutant protein analysis need to be completed for full credit.
1/3 points
Real-World Example: Logarithms Problem
Avalon's AI excels at assessing mathematical work, identifying correct applications of properties, and pinpointing exact errors in handwritten solutions to provide targeted feedback.
Excellent application of logarithm properties. All steps are clearly shown and the final answer is correct. The conversion to exponential form and isolation of 'x' demonstrate a strong grasp of the concept.
5/5 points
Good understanding of logarithm concepts and initial setup. However, you forgot to check for extraneous solutions! Always remember to validate all of your solutions.
4/5 points
The problem requires demonstrating your understanding of logarithm properties to solve for 'x'. It seems base 4 was swapped for base 10, and logs were combined with the incorrect addition rule. That being said, you still correctly converted a log equation to an exponential one!

AI-Agent Assisted Rubric Design
Avalon's intelligent AI agent revolutionizes rubric creation. Teachers simply input assignment details, and in seconds, the AI generates customized, standards-aligned rubrics, complete with suggestions for criteria, performance levels, and point distributions. Teachers can then refine and adjust every aspect of the rubric in real-time, leveraging AI assistance to ensure precision and fairness in grading.
