Our grading system supports both numerical and competency-based scoring, depending on the course settings.
🧑🏫 For Facilitators
Facilitators see both:
A numerical score (e.g., 7/10)
A competency label such as:
Competency Met
Competency Met: Exceptional
Competency Unmet
These scores are determined by how learners respond to prompts during the experience. All scoring is grounded in rubrics created by real subject matter experts—not AI. Our rubric creators are professionals in counseling, psychology, and social work, with experience in teaching and clinical supervision. They determine what “strong,” “weak,” or “exceptional” responses look like, and design grading criteria accordingly.
🧭 To explore how each prompt is graded, facilitators can reference the "For Your Review" or "The Rubric" sections within the course content.
📘 For Learners
You’ll only see one type of score: either a number (e.g., 8/10) or a competency label, depending on what your facilitator has chosen.
If your score is numeric, we’ll show you what it’s out of—like /10 or /7, depending on the simulation.
You won’t be able to see both scoring types. This is intentional—your facilitator has selected the format they feel is most appropriate.
Curious about your grade? Check your course page or ask your facilitator for insight into how they’re using scores.
🎓 Who designs the scoring?
Not AI—humans do.
Every evaluation is based on a structured, research-informed rubric developed by real humans—subject matter experts in mental health education and practice. Genius Proctor uses these human-designed standards to analyze your response and provide a score. The rubrics guide how responses are evaluated, but your score is just one data point. You get to decide what it means for you:
Does your score match how you felt about your response?
Are there areas where you’d like to grow?
Would you approach the question differently next time?
We encourage you to treat feedback from Genius Proctor as part of your learning journey—not a final verdict.
