TOOLS / FOR CHATGPT & CLAUDE

A little help
with the practical bit.

Start with your marks, assignment plan or evidence notes. Then take the result into ChatGPT or Claude for help with the part you need to understand or work through.

What mark
do you need?

Add every assessment and its weight. Enter the marks you have, leave the rest blank, then try a target. Calculate the remaining average, then ask AI to help you choose and practise what to work on next.

01 / GRADE CALCULATOR

YOUR CALCULATION

Add your assessments, then calculate.

How the calculation works

Each completed assessment contributes mark × weight ÷ 100 percentage points. The required remaining average is (target − points earned) ÷ remaining weight × 100. For a mark out of 20, convert it to a percentage first: 16 ÷ 20 × 100 = 80%.

All weights must total 100%. This assumes ordinary percentage-weighted assessment. It doesn’t account for hurdle requirements, penalties, scaling, dropped tasks, extra credit or university rounding rules. Check your course outline; a numerical target here doesn’t mean you’ve passed. This is a course-assessment calculation, not a WAM or GPA calculator. Example university guidance on grades.

Does the work
fit?

List what’s left, estimate the hours and put the tasks in the order you need to do them. We’ll distribute the work across your available time. Then you can ask AI to coach you through the next task.

02 / ASSIGNMENT PLANNER

Both dates are included. Choose a finish day before your actual submission deadline so you have time to submit.

Spare time is held at the end of the window. Enter realistic availability after classes, work, breaks and other commitments.

YOUR WORKING PLAN

Add your dates, available hours and tasks, then build a plan.

How the planner works

Tasks are scheduled in the order you list them, filling the earliest available time first. Use the up and down buttons to put prerequisites first. Time is rounded to the nearest minute. Weekdays and weekends use the hours you specify; the planner doesn’t know about holidays, individual busy days, group availability or your calendar.

It’s a working estimate, not a promise that you’ll finish. Adjust it as you learn more about the task. The approach follows the idea of breaking work into smaller tasks and budgeting real time, described in University of Melbourne’s time-management guidance. This tool is our implementation and isn’t endorsed by the university.

What supports
the claim?

Put a claim next to the evidence you’re using. Explain the link, note the limits and see which parts still need attention. Then take your notes into a chat for a critical review of the reasoning. You still check the evidence and make the judgement.

03 / EVIDENCE MAP

WHAT STILL NEEDS ATTENTION

Add a claim and its evidence, then review your notes.

What this checks, and what it doesn’t

This is a structured worksheet. It checks whether you’ve filled in a claim, source, locator, evidence, reasoning, limitations and your judgement of the relationship. Filled fields don’t establish accuracy, source quality or a sound argument. It doesn’t fetch websites, verify quotations, check citations or assess your reasoning automatically.

Read the original source and check its method, context and relevance. For more on evaluating what you find, see University of Sydney Library’s guidance. Our tool is independent of the university.

Keep the
thinking yours.

These are tools for working things out. Check the inputs, look at the assumptions and take anything uncertain back to your course material or tutor.
