- 1 Where does the toggle live — student-side, teacher-side, both? Probably teacher controls the default per-assignment, student can choose what they see while reviewing.
- 2 Visual treatment: green for positive, red for critical? Color-blind considerations.
Spec body
# GA positive vs critical highlights toggle Today the GA highlights what students should fix. Add a toggle to highlight what students did well — strengths, not just issues. Either mode can be on; or both. ## Problem Students experiencing only negative highlights miss the motivation signal of "this part is working — keep doing this." Skilled human teachers balance both. The GA can do the same; it just isn't doing it today. ## Goals (rough) - Toggle on/off for positive highlights and critical highlights independently. - Default: critical on, positive off (matches today's behavior — preserve current expectations). - Both signals share the highlight model, just differently colored. ## Non-goals - Replacing the comments panel. Highlights complement comments; this isn't a redesign. ## Open questions - [ ] Where does the toggle live — student-side, teacher-side, both?
