The In‑Chat Uploads feature lets you send assignments — essays, lab worksheets, slide decks, problem sets, and more — directly to mentorAI inside the chat. The mentor analyzes the file, provides a grade plus detailed feedback, and (when configured) forwards the score to your instructor’s gradebook. No extra portals or email attachments needed.
Student
Use the paper‑clip icon to attach documents, spreadsheets, images, or PDFs right in the chat window.
mentorAI evaluates your submission against the instructor’s rubric and returns a score with actionable comments.
When enabled, the score is automatically recorded in your course gradebook, saving everyone time.
Re‑upload revised drafts to receive updated scores and guidance before final submission.
Works for essays, coding notebooks, lab sheets, slide presentations, and other file types your course accepts.
Navigate to the mentorAI chat for your course.
Click the paper‑clip icon and select your document (e.g., Finance assignment on evaluating risk and returns).
After the upload completes, type a prompt such as:
Please provide me with a score for my assignment.
Press Send (or hit Enter).
mentorAI analyzes your work and replies with:
- Score / grade (rubric‑based)
- Strengths and areas for improvement
- Tips for boosting your score on the next draft
Make improvements, upload the new version, and ask mentorAI for an updated evaluation.
Confirm your assignment meets each rubric criterion before final submission.
Upload essays to get pointers on citation style (APA, MLA) and structural coherence.
Submit completed lab sheets to validate calculations and receive suggestions for clearer explanations.
Send Jupyter or Colab notebooks for code correctness, style guidance, and performance notes.
Repeatedly upload drafts to refine arguments, visuals, or data analysis based on AI feedback.
With In‑Chat Uploads, you receive immediate grading and advice, helping you spot improvements and keep your learning progress on track — all without leaving the mentorAI conversation.
