Fair Rewrite Challenge

This worksheet helps students in Grades 6, 7, and 8 strengthen ethical reasoning, reading comprehension, and narrative revision skills by examining bias in an AI-driven hiring scenario. Students read a short story that includes unfair assumptions or biased decision-making, then analyze where and how the bias appears before rewriting the narrative to make it fair, balanced, and inclusive.

Learning Goals

• Narrative Analysis and Revision (Grades 6-8) – Students identify problematic elements in a story and revise plot, characters, or outcomes to improve fairness.
• Identifying and Correcting Bias – Learners recognize biased reasoning patterns and replace them with equitable alternatives.
• Ethical Decision-Making – Students examine how values, assumptions, and data influence AI-driven choices.
• Reflective Writing – Students explain what bias they found and how their revisions improved the story.

Instructional Benefits

• Teacher-Created Resource – Designed by educators with age-appropriate scenarios and clear guidance.
• Low-Prep and Discussion-Friendly – Works well for independent writing, group discussion, or ethics lessons.
• Integrates Reading and Writing – Combines comprehension, analysis, and narrative editing in one activity.
• Supports Diverse Learners – Structured prompts guide students through both analysis and revision.
• Cross-Curricular Alignment – Connects English Language Arts skills with social studies ethics and technology literacy.

This printable worksheet helps students understand how bias can appear in stories and AI-driven decisions-and how thoughtful revision can correct it. Through analysis, rewriting, and reflection, learners build strong ethical awareness, critical thinking, and narrative-writing skills. Suitable for classroom or homeschool use, this activity supports responsible thinking about technology, fairness, and decision-making.
