# Assignment Design Worksheet

## 1. Learning Purpose

- Course or seminar:
- Learning objective:
- Strategic judgment students should practice:
- Why this task matters for future AI-enabled leadership:

## 2. Problem Frame Students Must Own

- Strategic problem:
- AI-shaped inputs students inherit before direct AI use:
- Purpose of the work:
- Key actors:
- Assumptions:
- Evidence standard:
- Success standard:
- Risks or tradeoffs:

## 3. Developmental Friction

- Work students should do without AI:
- First-frame activity:
- Ambiguity or uncertainty students should face:
- Seminar challenge or peer critique:
- What failure should teach:

## 4. Wasteful Friction

- Formatting or synthesis work:
- Search or retrieval work:
- Alternative framing:
- Counterargument generation:
- Red-team questions:

## 5. AI-Free And AI-Mediated Sequence

| Phase | Student action | AI role | Faculty observation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| AI-free first frame |  | None |  |
| AI-mediated challenge |  | Challenge, critique, expand, or compare |  |
| Human revision |  | Optional support |  |
| Oral defense or seminar challenge |  | None or limited |  |
| Trace artifact |  | Formatting support only, if allowed |  |

## 6. Reliance Decisions Students Must Make

- AI output they may accept:
- AI output they must verify:
- AI output they should reject or challenge:
- Part of the task where AI should be withheld:
- Evidence required before reliance is justified:

## 7. Assessment Evidence

- Purpose through frame:
- Inherited AI-shaped inputs:
- Assumptions:
- Evidence standard:
- Accepted AI contributions:
- Rejected or revised AI contributions:
- Final human judgment:
- Transfer check:
