Using AI for report writing

Access our Advanced Features within Connecting Steps to summarise key assessments that have been achieved, summarise key next steps and write reports.

The summaries are created using Artificial Intelligence (AI), based on criteria selected by the teacher, the report is then created about the student for parents to read. They can be specifically written for the student to help them understand the progress they are making. They can also be translated into 40 other languages!

Using Generative AI to Reduce Teacher Workload

Managing Director, Dale Pickles, has written a short guide on using Generative AI to reduce teacher workload. It explains how within Connecting Steps, we are using Microsoft’s private ChatGPT through Azure OpenAI services for privacy and security. It also gives step by step instructions on how to summarise key achievements, summarise next steps and create a lesson plan using our new Advanced Features.

What do progress summaries look like?

Here is an example we created for Edward – a student working on our Primary Curriculum framework:

About Edward – summarised for his parents

“Edward has made good progress in mastering writing numbers to 10, matching numerals to 20, and comparing two groups using counting. He is gaining skills and understanding in identifying and representing numbers using objects, pictorial representations, and the number line, as well as consistently comparing numbers to 20. However, he has not started describing the position of objects using ordinal numbers or matching ordinal numbers to cardinal numbers. He also needs to work on naming a digit as the ‘tens’ or ‘units’ in a number to 20, estimating where to place a number on a number line to 20, and making sensible estimates using non-standard measures.”

About Edward – summarised for Edward

“Good job, Edward! You’re getting really good at writing numbers up to 10, matching numbers up to 20, and counting to compare groups of things. You can now tell how many things there are by looking at pictures and you’re really good at comparing things that have numbers up to 20. We can keep working on using words like ‘first’ or ‘second’ to talk about where things are and matching those words with the right numbers. It would also be helpful to practice saying which number is in the ‘tens’ or ‘ones’ place in numbers up to 20, guessing where a number goes on a number line up to 20, and making good guesses using things like blocks or other objects. Keep up the good work, Edward!”

What our customers think of AI within Connecting Steps…

“The AI feature was used by our staff and the feedback has been that it speeded up their work flows when report writing. The AI was used as a quick starting point that was then edited and personalised specifically for each learner.”

“Massively sped up the process of writing our end of year reports!”

“In essence this system now makes everyone’s lives easier and has enhanced the outcomes for the young people we work with.”
