SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Calibrates grading rubrics by iteratively grading reference students and refining the rubric based on results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Iterative reference calibration loop that grades reference students against the current grading guide, analyzes gaps, and refines the rubric.
  • Generates key artifacts: reference_scores.json, reference_calibration.md, per_level_analysis.md, rubric_gaps.md, rubric_refinements.md, and updated grading_guide.md as refinements are incorporated.
  • Supports resume-safe operation with atomic writes and round-based calibration directories to recover from failures.

Quick Start

Run the grading-reference-calibration workflow to calibrate your rubric using reference data.

Frequently Asked Questions about grading-reference-calibration

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I calibrate a grading rubric using reference student data?â–¼

Iterative rubric calibration grades reference students, analyzes score gaps, and refines criteria across multiple rounds. It generates reference scores, gap analyses, and an updated grading guide to ensure accurate and consistent assessment outcomes.

What files do I need to start reference-based rubric calibration?â–¼

Rubric calibration requires reference mapping files, reference student PDFs, and a rubric draft. The workflow reads these inputs to generate reference scores, per-level analysis, gap documents, and an updated grading guide.

What output documents are generated during rubric calibration?â–¼

Rubric calibration generates reference_scores.json, reference_calibration.md, per_level_analysis.md, rubric_gaps.md, rubric_refinements.md, and an updated grading_guide.md. These artifacts document scores, gaps, and refinements.

Can I resume rubric calibration if the process stops midway?â–¼

Yes, rubric calibration supports resume-safe operation using atomic writes and round-based calibration directories. This allows the process to recover from interruptions and continue from the last completed round.

How does iterative rubric refinement handle discrimination checks?â–¼

Discrimination checks in rubric refinement analyze per-level performance and identify rubric gaps. The process refines criteria based on reference scores to ensure the rubric accurately distinguishes between different performance levels.
