AI 301 Assessment
Show that you can decide how multiple agents divide work, communicate, delegate, coordinate and resolve conflicts
What is assessed
The assessment checks judgment, not vocabulary. It has five parts with the weights below.
| Part | Weight |
|---|---|
| Knowledge Check (12 questions on single vs. multi-agent, roles and boundaries, delegation and handoff, communication contracts, shared context, orchestration patterns, conflict resolution and evaluation) | 15% |
| Role & Task Allocation Scenarios (one agent or many, which role owns what, how a task is delegated) | 20% |
| Communication & Orchestration Exercises (message contracts, shared or private context, choosing the orchestration pattern) | 20% |
| Conflict & Evaluation Exercise (rule, evidence, evaluator, human escalation, and judging whether collaboration helped) | 15% |
| Final Application (Multi-Agent Architecture Canvas) | 30% |
Scoring and passing
Quiz scoring happens on the server. Correct answers and explanations never appear on public pages or in downloadable files. The passing threshold is 80%.
Info
Questions appear once you start the assessment.
Canvas rubric
| Criterion | Weight |
|---|---|
| Shared goal and why multi-agent | 10% |
| Agent roles and responsibility boundaries | 20% |
| Task allocation and delegation rules | 15% |
| Communication protocol and shared context | 15% |
| Orchestration pattern and handoff points | 15% |
| Conflict resolution, human oversight and evaluation | 15% |
| Risks, final output and reflection question | 10% |
Info
Reviewers use these weights when they read a Canvas. The automatic advisory score shown after you submit and in My Learning is separate: it counts each of the fifteen Canvas sections and the reflection question equally (up to 3 points each), is advisory only and does not replace human review.
- 1Excellent
The goal is clear and each extra agent has a stated value. Roles have purpose, capabilities, permissions, inputs and outputs, and their boundaries do not overlap. Tasks are allocated and delegated with clear context, constraints and completion criteria. Messages have required fields and evidence, shared and private context are separated, the orchestration pattern is justified, handoffs are explicit, conflicts have an ordered resolution path, humans oversee the high-impact points, and evaluation and risks address coordination overhead. - 2Competent
The main roles, delegation and communication are designed, some boundaries overlap or some rules are vague, and the human controls are broadly sensible. - 3Needs improvement
The reason for several agents is missing, roles overlap or are vague, handoffs and messages are informal, all context is shared with everyone, conflicts are left unresolved, or high-impact decisions have no human approval.
Reflection
Write 100 to 200 words in response to this question:
Info
What clear value does each additional Agent provide, and how will the system prevent coordination overhead from becoming greater than that value?
