Higgins, Colin A.; Bligh, Brett; Symeonidis, Pavlos; Tsintsifas, Athanasios – Computers & Education, 2009
The CourseMarker system has been used to assess free-response computer based assessment (CBA) exercises since 1998. The aim of the studies reported here was to evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of developing and deploying diagram-based exercises using DATsys, an authoring environment for diagram-based CBA, together with CourseMarker.…

Isotani, Seiji; Mizoguchi, Riichiro; Inaba, Akiko; Ikeda, Mitsuru – Computers & Education, 2010
One of the most useful ways to enhance collaboration is to create scenarios where learners are able to interact more effectively. Nevertheless, the design of pedagogically sound and well-thought-out collaborative learning scenarios is a complex issue. This is due to the context of group learning where the synergy among learners' interactions…

Hauptman, Hanoch – Computers & Education, 2010
Developing a software environment to enhance 3D geometric proficiency demands the consideration of theoretical views of the learning process. Simultaneously, this effort requires taking into account the range of tools that technology offers, as well as their limitations. In this paper, we report on the design of Virtual Spaces 1.0 software, a…
