Donnelly, Dermot F.; Vitale, Jonathan M.; Linn, Marcia C. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2015
Middle school students struggle to explain thermodynamics concepts. In this study, to help students succeed, we use a natural language processing program to analyze their essays explaining the aspects of thermodynamics and provide guidance based on the automated score. The 346 sixth-grade students were assigned to either the critique condition…
