AI-EXCAfL is developing new AI technology for automatic feedback on student writing, with the aim of strengthening assessment for learning (AfL) and students' ability to learn how to learn in English, Norwegian, Science, and Social Studies.

AI-EXCAfL is an interdisciplinary research project that develops AI-based assessment technology (FAS) to support formative and summative assessment of student writing. The project explores how the technology can contribute to students' writing development and their ability to learn how to learn, as well as how teachers organise assessment for learning (AfL) with and without the use of AI.

FAS provides automatic, individually tailored feedback across four subjects: English, Norwegian, Science, and Social Studies. The aim is to enhance the quality of education, develop AI competence among both teachers and students, and strengthen the research-based use of digital assessment methods in secondary schools. The project combines insights from pedagogy and technology and involves researchers, developers, teachers, and students in design-based interventions.
