Description
Culminating Assessment for Lesson 3 of the AI Programming & Ethics Unit
In this final project, students demonstrate their understanding of programming logic and AI‑generated code by analyzing, explaining, and improving a simple program created with an AI tool. This assessment reinforces key lesson concepts, including the Input–Process–Output (IPO) model, debugging, and responsible AI use.
The project emphasizes conceptual understanding and reasoning, not advanced coding skills, making it accessible for beginners while still academically rigorous.
This Lesson 3 Final Project serves as a performance‑based assessment that asks students to think like programmers rather than simply run code. Students evaluate what AI produces, identify limitations, and apply programming logic to improve results.
The assessment is designed to measure:
- Understanding of how programs function
- Ability to reason about AI‑generated outputs
- Awareness of AI strengths and limitations
- Clear explanation and reflection skills
No prep required
Flexible programming language choice
Aligns directly with Lesson 3 instruction
Skills Assessed
- Programming logic comprehension
- Computational thinking
- Debugging and error identification
- AI literacy and critical evaluation
- Written explanation and reflection
What’s Included (Assessment‑Level)
- Performance‑based final project prompt
- Clear student directions
- AI‑aware task structure
- Rubric (20 points total)
- Aligned with Lesson 3 objectives
Suggested Timing
- Duration: 1 class period
- Can be extended for deeper revision or reflection
How This Fits into Lesson 3: This final project is intended to be used after:
- Direct instruction on programming logic
- IPO model exploration
- Syntax vs. logic error discussions
- Guided worksheet practice
- It serves as the formal assessment for Lesson 3 before students move on to later topics in the unit.
Grade Levels
- Middle School (Grades 6–8)
- High School (Grades 9–12)
- Intro College / CTE
This assessment is included as part of a larger lesson and unit bundle and is intended for classroom use only. Redistribution is not permitted.
