Module 4, Lesson 6
This is the third and final interim assessment. It combines data sensitivity classification with tool selection — the two judgment skills from Module 4.
Part A: Data Sensitivity Scenarios (4 scenarios)
For each scenario, classify every data item by sensitivity level (Public, Internal, Confidential, Restricted), map it to the appropriate service tier (Free chat, Paid with data controls, Enterprise with BAA, Do not use), and document mitigation for any Confidential or Restricted items.
Scenario 1: You're a recruiter and want to use AI to help write outreach messages to passive candidates. You have: the job description (posted publicly), the candidate's LinkedIn profile (public), their current salary from a confidential reference check, and internal notes about why the role is open (executive departure not yet announced).
Scenario 2: You're a project manager and want AI to help prepare a client quarterly business review. You have: the project timeline (shared with the client), feature usage analytics (client-specific, under NDA), a competitor analysis your team prepared (internal strategy document), and the client's CSAT survey results (contains individual respondent names and ratings).
Scenario 3: You're a small business owner and want AI to help draft your tax preparer a summary of business expenses. You have: categorized expense totals from QuickBooks (internal financial data), receipts from vendor purchases (some contain vendor bank account info), your business EIN, and a list of employee reimbursement amounts with names.
Scenario 4: You're a teacher who wants to use AI to create differentiated reading materials. You have: the grade-level curriculum standards (public), student reading assessment scores with names (FERPA-protected), a list of book titles your school library owns (internal), and parent email addresses from your class roster.
Part B: Tool Selection Scenarios (3 scenarios)
For each scenario, select the best tool category (general chatbot, research engine, document-grounded, specialist) and justify your choice with at least 1 named trade-off versus an alternative category.
Scenario 5: You need to verify whether a specific FDA regulation applies to your company's new product packaging. You need the current regulation text with a citation you can reference in a compliance report.
Scenario 6: Your IT department has mandated Microsoft Copilot for all AI use. You need to analyze a 45-page vendor evaluation document that contains sensitive pricing information and produce a comparison summary.
Scenario 7: You have audio recordings of 6 customer interviews and need to turn them into a structured findings document with quotes and themes.
Part C: Self-Assessment
Before reviewing the answer key, predict your score: how many scenarios (out of 7) do you think you answered correctly?
Part D: Elaborative Interrogation
For Scenario 6 (the IT-mandated tool): "If the mandated tool isn't the best fit for the task, what trade-offs are you accepting? What would you do differently if you could choose your own tool?"
You've now been assessed on all six core skills across three interim assessments. Module 5 puts them all together — a full rehearsal of the capstone workflow.
