Ulrike Padó; Yunus Eryilmaz; Larissa Kirschner – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2024
Short-Answer Grading (SAG) is a time-consuming task for teachers that automated SAG models have long promised to make easier. However, there are three challenges for their broad-scale adoption: A technical challenge regarding the need for high-quality models, which is exacerbated for languages with fewer resources than English; a usability…

Stefan Ruseti; Ionut Paraschiv; Mihai Dascalu; Danielle S. McNamara – Grantee Submission, 2024
Automated Essay Scoring (AES) is a well-studied problem in Natural Language Processing applied in education. Solutions vary from handcrafted linguistic features to large Transformer-based models, implying a significant effort in feature extraction and model implementation. We introduce a novel Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) pipeline…

Yildirim-Erbasli, Seyma N.; Bulut, Okan; Demmans Epp, Carrie; Cui, Ying – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2023
Conversational agents have been widely used in education to support student learning. There have been recent attempts to design and use conversational agents to conduct assessments (i.e., conversation-based assessments: CBA). In this study, we developed CBA with constructed and selected-response tests using Rasa--an artificial intelligence-based…

Ponce, Héctor R.; Mayer, Richard E.; Sitthiworachart, Jirarat; López, Mario J. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
The transition from paper-based tests to corresponding computer-administered tests allows for the incorporation of improved interfaces that support response making. The main research question is whether innovative interfaces affect test response time and/or response accuracy. This study compared performance on banked cloze tests using a…

Sabjan, Aniza; Wahab, Alawiyah Abd; Ahmad, Azizah; Ahmad, Rahayu; Hassan, Syahida; Wahid, Juliana – Asian Journal of University Education, 2020
The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality design criteria for developing a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC). Currently, there are limited studies that highlight the required design criteria for the MOOC programming courses. A descriptive analysis was conducted to examine the characteristics of the three important quality design…

Veerbeek, Jochanan; Vogelaar, Bart; Verhaegh, Janneke; Resing, Wilma C. M. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
Task solving processes and changes in these processes have long been expected to provide valuable information about children's performance in school. This article used electronic tangibles (concrete materials that can be physically manipulated) and a dynamic testing format (pretest, training, and posttest) to investigate children's task solving…

Nakamura, Yasuyuki; Nakahara, Takahiro – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2016
Developing online test environments for e-learning for mobile devices will be useful to increase drill practice opportunities. In order to provide a drill practice environment for calculus using an online math test system, such as STACK, we develop a flickable math input interface that can be easily used on mobile devices. The number of taps…

Mavletova, Aigul; Couper, Mick P. – Field Methods, 2016
There is some evidence that a scrolling design may reduce breakoffs in mobile web surveys compared to a paging design, but there is little empirical evidence to guide the choice of the optimal number of items per page. We investigate the effect of the number of items presented on a page on data quality in two types of questionnaires: with or…
