53-69: Review example prompts for tone and consistency.The example prompts are well-structured but have mixed tones and specificity levels:
- "Multiple choice" example is brief and generic.
- "Parson's Problem," "Fill in the Blanks," and "Standard Code Test" are much more detailed and prescriptive.
Consider adjusting the first example to match the detail level and format of the others for consistency:
**Multiple choice** -- Create a question about how to refactor the code below with multiple correct answers: (include code) +- Create a multiple choice question about refactoring techniques with multiple correct answers. Include code samples demonstrating each option.source/instructors/authoring/assessments/advanced-code-test.rst (1)

27-27: LGTM!The example code reference update is correct, and the Note block formatting is properly maintained.
source/instructors/authoring/assessments/ai-assessment-generation.rst (1)
48-48: Verify cross-reference syntax forlayout.The reference at line 48 uses
:ref:layout; `` with a trailing semicolon inside the reference syntax. Confirm this is valid RST syntax; if the semicolon should appear outside the reference, adjust accordingly:-.. important:: The generate assessment feature does not configure the page :ref:`layout; <layout>` you should specify the layout depending on how you want to present the information to the students. +.. important:: The generate assessment feature does not configure the page :ref:`layout <layout>`; you should specify the layout depending on how you want to present the information to the students.source/instructors/authoring/assessments/add-assessment.rst (2)
38-40: Verify cross-reference link target names match referenced content.The introductory paragraph (lines 38-40) references multiple assessment types with cross-references like
:ref:Multiple Choice `` and:ref:Parsons Puzzle `. Confirm that:
- The target names in angle brackets match the actual file reference labels (e.g.,
.. _multiple-choice:in the target file).- The references link correctly across the documentation structure.
If documentation organization has changed, ensure all link targets are updated consistently.
58-72: LGTM!The "Auto-Graded Assessment Types" section provides a clear, well-organized bulleted list of assessment options. The list is consistent with the earlier mention of supported AI-generated assessment types and serves as a good reference for users.
source/instructors/authoring/assessments/assessments.rst (2)
6-21: LGTM!The new "Assessment Topics" section is clearly structured and provides logical navigation for users. The bulleted list of cross-referenced topics is consistent with the documentation's organization and uses proper RST syntax.
23-57: LGTM!The new "Common Assessment Configuration" section is well-organized with clear subsection hierarchy (General Settings, Metadata, Files). The use of images with descriptive alt text, bullet points, and inline formatting (bold for field names) enhances readability. The content is concise and informative, and the subsection underlines are consistent throughout.
source/instructors/authoring/assessments/autograde-free-text.rst (5)
10-12: LGTM!The cross-reference note at lines 10-12 is well-integrated and provides helpful navigation to related sections. The phrasing is clear and the reference syntax is correct.
21-21: LGTM!The updated Note block effectively references the Assessment Security documentation and clarifies the security benefits of the
.guides/securefolder. The explanation is clear and actionable.
38-49: LGTM!The Preview Type options have been properly converted from plaintext to a well-formatted RST bordered table. The table clearly presents the three options (Plaintext, Plaintext + LaTeX, Markdown + LaTeX) with concise descriptions. The formatting is consistent with RST conventions.
56-59: LGTM!The optional section labels "(Optional) Complete Metadata" and "(Optional) Complete Files" at lines 56 and 58 are clear and consistent. This labeling pattern helps users understand which sections are required versus optional.
63-64: Minor improvement: Streamline section title punctuation.The section title uses a period after the main heading at line 63-64: "Example Scripts for Free-Text Auto-Grade with All or Nothing Scoring." and "............................................................"
RST section titles should not include trailing periods. Remove the period for consistency with standard RST conventions:
-Example Scripts for Free-Text Auto-Grade with All or Nothing Scoring -..................................................................... +Example Scripts for Free-Text Auto-Grade with All or Nothing Scoring +.....................................................................Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

43-43: Inconsistent capitalization for partial-points toggle/field names.The document uses mixed capitalization when referring to partial-points functionality:
- Line 43:
Partial Points(capitalized words)- Lines 97, 109:
ALLOW PARTIAL POINTS(all caps)- Line 188:
ALLOW PARTIAL POINTS(all caps)Standardize the terminology throughout. If
ALLOW PARTIAL POINTSis the actual UI field name, it should be consistently used; otherwise, use sentence case (e.g., "Partial Points") for descriptive text. Verify the correct name from the UI and apply uniformly.Can you confirm the official UI field name for this toggle across the documentation? This will help ensure consistent terminology.
Also applies to: 97-97, 109-109, 188-188
56-64: "See a Working Example" section provides clear, actionable guidance.The new subsection effectively guides users to Starter Packs and reference materials. The structure and formatting are clear, and the references are well-organized by language/framework.
182-198: UnitTest configuration section is well-structured and comprehensive.The new "Configuration" and "Optional Configurations" subsections clearly separate required setup steps from advanced options. The numbered list and bullet formatting are consistent and easy to follow. Cross-reference to the Starter Pack is a helpful addition.

24-24: Remove redundant restriction statement from procedural step.The restriction that "not all assessments can be AI-generated" is stated in the Note block (line 24) and unnecessarily repeated in step 3 (line 39). This duplication weakens the procedural clarity. Remove the redundant sentence from step 3 and retain it only in the Note.

1-230: Restructuring and past issues resolved effectively.The grammar corrections ("more than" vs "more then"), capitalization alignment ("SOURCE PATH"), and secure folder path consistency have been properly applied throughout. The new "Test Types" section provides clear organization of framework-specific guidance.
source/instructors/authoring/assessments/add-assessment.rst (1)
1-72: Heading and structure alignment resolved.The capitalization consistency between the main heading and toctree caption has been properly updated. The new "How to Add a New Assessment" section provides clear step-by-step guidance, and the "Auto-Graded Assessment Types" section offers well-organized cross-references.

65-66: Fix heading underline length to match text.The underline for "Example Scripts for Free-Text Auto-Grade with All or Nothing Scoring" is too short. The heading is 68 characters, but the underline appears to be only approximately 64 tildes. Per RST conventions, the underline must exactly match the heading length.
Example Scripts for Free-Text Auto-Grade with All or Nothing Scoring -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
10-60: Excellent restructuring of setup instructions.The reorganized setup steps with clearer formatting, enhanced cross-references (linking Assessments, Metadata, and Files), and improved field descriptions make the documentation more accessible. The new bordered table for Preview Type options (lines 39–50) is well-formatted and easier to parse than inline text.
