🥣 Preparation – Before Implementation
- Prepare the adaptive prompt given in References & Resources by adjusting language levels to the specific students.
- Test that the AI responds correctly.
- Adjust the prompt to the class’s current level.
🔥 Implementation Steps
- The teacher introduces the purpose of the adaptive quiz and explains how the AI will adjust difficulty based on learner performance.
- The learner begins the quiz by responding to an initial grammar prompt.
- The AI provides feedback and adjusts the complexity of the next task according to the learner’s accuracy.
- The teacher monitors the interaction, ensuring clarity and supporting the learner when needed.
- The learner repeats adaptive rounds until a stable difficulty level is reached or time runs out.
- The session ends with a brief review of key errors and corrected structures.
🧂 Differentiation & Inclusion
The activity is inherently inclusive because the adaptive quiz adjusts to each learner’s linguistic profile, digital confidence, and cognitive load. Learners with lower proficiency receive simpler explanations, scaffolded hints, and reduced linguistic complexity, while higher-level learners encounter more complex structures and open-ended grammar tasks.
🍴 Assessment & Feedback
| Criterion | Excellent | Good | Needs Work |
| Use of Feedback | The learner consistently integrates AI-generated feedback into revised answers, demonstrates clear improvement within the session, and actively requests clarification when needed. | The learner applies most feedback correctly but may require occasional prompting. | The learner shows limited use of feedback, repeats similar mistakes, or does not revise answers. |
| Language Awareness | The learner recognises grammar patterns, explains why errors occur, and independently applies rules in new sentences. | The learner identifies common structures and corrects most errors with minimal support. | The learner struggles to detect grammar patterns and depends entirely on correction. |
| Progress | The learner shows clear improvement, moves to higher difficulty levels, and increases accuracy. | The learner shows moderate progress and maintains a stable level. | The learner shows minimal progress or becomes overwhelmed by adaptive adjustments. |
⚠️ Ethics, Privacy & Safeguarding
- The activity uses AI tools without requiring learners to provide personal data beyond what is necessary for the task.
- Learners are advised not to input sensitive or identifying information.
🍱 Extensions / Follow‑Ups
- Learners can repeat the adaptive quiz independently to reinforce grammar areas.
- Homework may include short writing tasks applying corrected structures.
- The activity can extend to reading or vocabulary tasks.
