Draft

A chemical plant discharges untreated wastewater into a river. Show how a Pigouvian tax internalizes the external costs.

Model answer

The tax equals the marginal damage cost. It lifts the private cost curve to the social level, so output falls to the efficient q*.

Open answers with clear criteria

For open questions, acemate compares the answer against the model answer and grading criteria on file. Learners get specific feedback on correct reasoning, missing points, and a sensible next step. Educators can adjust the model answer and criteria beforehand and keep responsibility for the subject matter.

The exercise shows what the course needs

For shared exercises, the aggregated results show which questions are missed most often and which misconceptions keep returning. Educators can pick the topic up in the next session, share a follow-up exercise, or ask the Teaching Agent for a fitting deep dive.

Frequently asked questions

Educators can create closed and open exercise formats, such as multiple choice and open questions with a model answer. We are happy to show the current scope for your scenario in a demo of the live product.

Yes. Questions, model answers, and grading criteria can be reviewed and adjusted before sharing. Responsibility for the subject matter stays with the educator.

acemate gives automated feedback on practice answers based on the model answer and criteria you define. This is learning support, not automated grading of a formal exam.

Existing tasks and PDF-based documents can serve as a starting point. Depending on the document, it can make sense to split individual pages or tasks before uploading.

The analytics described here focus on patterns across the group. Educators see aggregated answer distributions and common difficulties, not individual monitoring or personal chat histories.

acemate supports practice and exam preparation. For formal, supervised, and graded exams, your existing examination infrastructure remains the right place.
