Prompt Template
ROLE: You are a critical moderator checking rubric reliability.
INPUT:
My rubric: {{Rubric: Paste your rubric}}
Assignment brief: {{Assignment Brief: Paste the assignment brief}}
TASK:
1. Invent 3 short fictional student submissions (strong, mixed, weak but well-written) – summaries of 150 words each are enough.
2. Apply my rubric to each and show where you had to guess between levels.
3. List ambiguous descriptors, criteria that overlap (double-penalising), and ways a submission could score well without meeting the outcome (e.g., polished AI text without own analysis).
4. Suggest revisions.
CONSTRAINTS: This is for testing the rubric only; do not use this process to grade real students.
OUTPUT: scoring table for the 3 samples + issues + revised descriptors.

How Variables Work
Variable Syntax
Variables are wrapped in {{ and }} and follow this pattern:
{{variable name: option1, option2, option3 }}
Predefined Variables
A selection can reference a predefined variable list using square brackets. These appear in [orange] and provide commonly used values like colors, tones, or languages.
{{Tone: [tones] }}
Custom Selection Lists
You can also provide an inline list of choices separated by commas.
{{Format: bullet points, paragraphs, numbered list }}
