Li, Xu; Ouyang, Fan; Liu, Jianwen; Wei, Chengkun; Chen, Wenzhi – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
The computer-supported writing assessment (CSWA) has been widely used to reduce instructor workload and provide real-time feedback. Interpretability of CSWA draws extensive attention because it can benefit the validity, transparency, and knowledge-aware feedback of academic writing assessments. This study proposes a novel assessment tool,…

Assessment is a key component of education. Routine grading of students' work, however, is time consuming. Automating the grading process allows instructors to spend more of their time helping their students learn and engaging their students with more open-ended, creative activities. One way to automate grading is through computer-based…

Automated essay scoring (AES) has become a valuable tool in educational settings, providing efficient and objective evaluations of student essays. However, the majority of AES systems have primarily focused on native English speakers, leaving a critical gap in the evaluation of non-native speakers' writing skills. This research addresses this gap…

Messina, Cara Marta; Jones, Cherice Escobar; Poe, Mya – Written Communication, 2023
We report on a college-level study of student reflection and instructor prompts using scoring and corpus analysis methods. We collected 340 student reflections and 24 faculty prompts. Reflections were scored using trait and holistic scoring and then reflections and faculty prompts were analyzed using Natural Language Processing to identify…

Guerrero, Tricia A.; Wiley, Jennifer – Grantee Submission, 2019
Teachers may wish to use open-ended learning activities and tests, but they are burdensome to assess compared to forced-choice instruments. At the same time, forced-choice assessments suffer from issues of guessing (when used as tests) and may not encourage valuable behaviors of construction and generation of understanding (when used as learning…

Biju Theruvil Sayed; Zein Bassam Bani Younes; Ahmad Alkhayyat; Iroda Adhamova; Habesha Teferi – Language Testing in Asia, 2024
There has been a surge in employing artificial intelligence (AI) in all areas of language pedagogy, not the least among them language testing and assessment. This study investigated the effects of AI-powered tools on English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' speaking skills, psychological well-being, autonomy, and academic buoyancy. Using a…

Ziwei Zhou – ProQuest LLC, 2020
In light of the ever-increasing capability of computer technology and advancement in speech and natural language processing techniques, automated speech scoring of constructed responses is gaining popularity in many high-stakes assessment and low-stakes educational settings. Automated scoring is a highly interdisciplinary and complex subject, and…

Magliano, Joseph P.; Lampi, Jodi P.; Ray, Melissa; Chan, Greta – Grantee Submission, 2020
Coherent mental models for successful comprehension require inferences that establish semantic "bridges" between discourse constituents and "elaborations" that incorporate relevant background knowledge. While it is established that individual differences in the extent to which postsecondary students engage in these processes…

Allen, Laura K.; Likens, Aaron D.; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2017
The current study examined the degree to which the quality and characteristics of students' essays could be modeled through dynamic natural language processing analyses. Undergraduate students (n = 131) wrote timed, persuasive essays in response to an argumentative writing prompt. Recurrent patterns of the words in the essays were then analyzed…

Allen, Laura K.; Jacovina, Matthew E.; Dascalu, Mihai; Roscoe, Rod D.; Kent, Kevin M.; Likens, Aaron D.; McNamara, Danielle S. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
This study investigates how and whether information about students' writing can be recovered from basic behavioral data extracted during their sessions in an intelligent tutoring system for writing. We calculate basic and time-sensitive keystroke indices based on log files of keys pressed during students' writing sessions. A corpus of prompt-based…

Bejar, Isaac I.; VanWinkle, Waverely; Madnani, Nitin; Lewis, William; Steier, Michael – ETS Research Report Series, 2013
The paper applies a natural language computational tool to study a potential construct-irrelevant response strategy, namely the use of "shell language." Although the study is motivated by the impending increase in the volume of scoring of students responses from assessments to be developed in response to the Race to the Top initiative,…

McNamara, Danielle S.; Crossley, Scott A.; Roscoe, Rod – Grantee Submission, 2013
The Writing Pal is an intelligent tutoring system that provides writing strategy training. A large part of its artificial intelligence resides in the natural language processing algorithms to assess essay quality and guide feedback to students. Because writing is often highly nuanced and subjective, the development of these algorithms must…

Rafferty, Anna N., Ed.; Whitehill, Jacob, Ed.; Romero, Cristobal, Ed.; Cavalli-Sforza, Violetta, Ed. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
The 13th iteration of the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM 2020) was originally arranged to take place in Ifrane, Morocco. Due to the SARS-CoV-2 (coronavirus) epidemic, EDM 2020, as well as most other academic conferences in 2020, had to be changed to a purely online format. To facilitate efficient transmission of…
