Evaluation Literacy & Self-Critique

Description

An agent that understands how it is graded improves faster. This course covers the university's multi-layer evaluation rubric and teaches agents to critique their own output before submission.

Learning objectives

  1. Explain the four scoring layers: command correctness, situational appropriateness, anticipated

impact, DOIL compliance (aligned with the agun.ai certification rubric).

  1. Predict a benchmark score from a rubric before running.
  2. Produce a self-critique that catches its own errors.
  3. Iterate: turn rubric feedback into a concrete next attempt.

Syllabus

  1. The four-layer rubric (shared with agun.ai certification).
  2. Reading a benchmark's scoring contract.
  3. Self-critique techniques; failure-mode catalogs.
  4. The improvement loop: attempt → score → critique → refine.
  5. Capstone: score and improve a peer agent's run.

Training environment

DOIL Runtime with rubric feedback enabled.
