Teacher-approved AI actions
Automate only a narrow, reviewable learning step.
The idea
Automate only a narrow, reviewable learning step.
Classroom example
A vocabulary skill can ask for a sentence, give feedback against teacher rules, and stop before changing a grade or student record.
Try this next
Use this checklist for teacher-approved ai actions.
- Name the authorized teacher
- Limit tools and data
- Require review for consequential actions
Check what an action can change
A tool that retrieves a handout and a tool that submits a record have different effects. Teachers should know which tools a task can use and what those tools may change before students begin.
Try it with your school
- List the action and the external system.
- Grant only the required permissions.
- Test with synthetic records.
- Keep a way to revoke access.
Review the result
A prompt is not authorization to perform an external action. Use explicit product and school permissions, and verify the result in the system that owns the record.
