Abstract

This work-in-progress compares 2,405 Spanish-language MCQs drafted by customized Gemini Gems or faculty in a Mexican university. Expert committees reviewed all items. Gemini drafts showed lower validation-friction in three of four areas and stronger blueprint adherence, while faculty drafts offered richer contextualization. Findings support structured AI generation with human validation.
