We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for experienced education professionals with strong expertise in educational materials, visual document interpretation, assessment design, and structured evaluation.

This role supports a research project focused on complex visual and document-based tasks within the education domain. Selected experts will create realistic, evidence-grounded assignments, establish clear reference answers, and develop objective scoring criteria for evaluating the quality and accuracy of responses.

Key Responsibilities

Education Task Design

• Create complex, realistic tasks grounded in educational materials and professional education workflows
• Develop assignments requiring careful interpretation of documents, charts, tables, diagrams, presentations, and other visual resources
• Design tasks that require meaningful subject-matter judgement rather than simple information retrieval
• Ensure each task has a clear and objectively verifiable expected output
• Develop scenarios appropriate to authentic educational contexts

Visual Document Interpretation

• Analyse educational documents containing text, graphics, tables, diagrams, and structured information
• Create questions requiring information to be synthesised across multiple visual or textual elements
• Identify relevant details, relationships, and contextual information within source materials

• Ensure conclusions remain grounded in the supplied materials

Assessment & Instruction-Following

• Create tasks involving multi-step instructions and clearly defined deliverables
• Evaluate whether responses fully satisfy stated requirements
• Identify missing information, instruction-following errors, and unsupported conclusions
• Develop assessment criteria that distinguish complete responses from partially correct ones
• Apply consistent standards across different task types

Reference Answer Development

• Produce authoritative reference outputs for assigned tasks
• Establish clear ground truth based on provided educational materials
• Verify that reference answers are accurate, complete, and reproducible
• Document the reasoning and evidence supporting expected outcomes
• Resolve ambiguity before tasks progress to evaluation

Rubric & Quality Development

• Write objective rubrics defining the requirements for successful responses
• Identify essential elements that must be present in a correct answer
• Distinguish substantive errors from minor presentation differences
• Refine tasks and rubrics for clarity, difficulty, and evaluation reliability
• Maintain consistent quality standards across the project

Ideal Profile

• Professional or academic background in Education, Curriculum, Instructional Design, Educational Assessment, or a closely related field
• Strong ability to interpret educational documents and visually structured information
• Experience working with instructional materials, assessments, curricula, or educational content
• Strong analytical judgement and attention to detail
• Ability to create clearly defined tasks with objective expected outcomes
• Excellent written English and ability to explain reasoning precisely
• Comfortable working independently within structured project guidelines
• Experience developing assessments, rubrics, instructional materials, or educational evaluation criteria is advantageous
• Based in the United States or Canada

Engagement Details

• Part-time independent contractor engagement
• Fully remote
• Expected commitment of approximately 15–20 hours per week
• Flexible scheduling based on project requirements
• Compensation: Up to $50/hour
• Work focuses on education task authoring, reference-answer development, and evaluation criteria
