Documentation and coordination support

AI can assist without owning the physical outcome

These support steps are shown separately. They do not count as agentic workflows and do not increase this occupation's score.

Review course evidence and revise materials

Use an agent to gather peer comments, student feedback, and recent course results, then draft a revision note for your syllabus, assignments, or teaching materials. The result is a clear record of what changed and why, ready for you to post in the course folder or share with colleagues.

O*NET 31.0 · methodology 3.3.0. Every workflow passes an action-level physical-execution and protected human-and-veterinary clinical-action gate. Documentation workflows must own a complete digital loop and use digital task evidence only; support-only workflows are disclosed separately and excluded from scoring. Artistic, editorial, normative, and policy-dependent work receives a transparent human-judgment constraint. National ranking within 923 scored O*NET occupations under methodology 3.3.0.
