How to audit lesson plan alignment with your AI

Connect your lesson files to your agent to find gaps between what you want students to learn and how you're actually testing them.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I check if my lesson plans are actually aligned?

Your AI compares your objectives against your assessments and scaffolding using established cognitive frameworks. You'll get a breakdown of where your teaching steps fail to meet the required cognitive depth.

Where every issue lands.

The audit outcomes

The AI categorizes every misalignment it finds into these specific buckets.

GAP

Missing cognitive depth

The AI identifies where your assessments are too easy or too hard compared to your stated objectives. You get a list of specific objectives that lack proper testing.

MISMATCH

Scaffolding failures

This shows where your instructional steps don't actually build the skills needed for the final task. It highlights jumps in logic that will confuse students.

VALID

Confirmed alignment

The AI flags the parts of your plan that work perfectly. This tells you which sections are pedagogically sound and don't need changes.

HUMAN

Required instructor edits

The AI flags complex pedagogical contradictions that require your professional judgment. These are the areas where you need to rewrite the actual content.

The workflow

What your AI does when the lesson arrives.

The agent processes your documents through a structured pedagogical check.

  1. Map objectives

    The AI extracts every learning goal from your uploaded documents to create a baseline for the audit.

  2. Check scaffolding

    It looks at your instructional steps to see if they logically lead to the target cognitive level.

  3. Verify assessments

    The agent compares your test questions against the objectives to ensure they measure the right skills.

  4. Flag taxonomies

    It identifies if your tasks align with specific levels of Bloom's or other cognitive frameworks.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI rewrite my lesson plans for me?

    No. The AI identifies alignment gaps and suggests where changes are needed, but you must perform the actual writing.

  • 02

    Does it work with any cognitive taxonomy?

    It is designed to validate against established frameworks like Bloom's, but you can specify a different taxonomy in your prompt.

  • 03

    Will it delete my original files?

    No. The AI only reads your files to perform the audit. It has no permission to modify or delete your documents.

  • 04

    Can it grade student work?

    No. This tool is for auditing the design of the lesson and its assessments, not for grading individual student submissions.

  • 05

    How does it know if a question is too hard?

    It compares the cognitive verb in the question to the cognitive level defined in your learning objectives.
