Fridge, Evorell; Bagui, Sikha – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2016
The goal of this research was to investigate the effects of automated testing software on levels of student reflection and student performance. This was a self-selecting, between subjects design that examined the performance of students in introductory computer programming classes. Participants were given the option of using the Web-CAT…

Alsubait, Tahani; Parsia, Bijan; Sattler, Uli – Research in Learning Technology, 2012
Different computational models for generating analogies of the form "A is to B as C is to D" have been proposed over the past 35 years. However, analogy generation is a challenging problem that requires further research. In this article, we present a new approach for generating analogies in Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) format that can be used…

Llamas-Nistal, Martin; Fernandez-Iglesias, Manuel J.; Gonzalez-Tato, Juan; Mikic-Fonte, Fernando A. – Computers & Education, 2013
Existing e-assessment tools may not be a panacea to address all assessment situations, as students might find the traditional pen-and-paper approach to provide their answers more convenient than typing them online. For example, constructed response or essay-based assessments will require the active participation of students and lecturers to…

Lazarinis, Fotis; Green, Steve; Pearson, Elaine – Interactive Learning Environments, 2011
In this article, we present the characteristics and the design of a modular personalized multimedia testing tool based fully on XML learning specifications. Personalization is based on the characteristics of the individual learners, thus the testing paths are tailored to their needs and goals. The system maintains learner profiles rich in content…

Sanna, A.; Lamberti, F.; Paravati, G.; Demartini, C. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2012
Computer-based assessment of exams provides teachers and students with two main benefits: fairness and effectiveness in the evaluation process. This paper proposes a fully automatic evaluation tool for the Graphic and Virtual Design (GVD) curriculum at the First School of Architecture of the Politecnico di Torino, Italy. In particular, the tool is…

McCurry, Doug – Assessing Writing, 2010
This article considers the claim that machine scoring of writing test responses agrees with human readers as much as humans agree with other humans. These claims about the reliability of machine scoring of writing are usually based on specific and constrained writing tasks, and there is reason for asking whether machine scoring of writing requires…

Usener, Claus A.; Majchrzak, Tim A.; Kuchen, Herbert – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2012
Purpose: To overcome the high manual effort of assessments for teaching personnel, e-assessment systems are used to assess students using information systems (IS). The purpose of this paper is to propose an extension of EASy, a system for e-assessment of exercises that require higher-order cognitive skills. The latest module allows assessing…

Christ, Oliver; Weber, Christoph; Sato, Toshihiko – Behaviour & Information Technology, 2012
In this study, the electronic revision and recapitulation tools 2.0 (EREP 2.0) were used to foster creative moments while creating aided recalls (ARs) (pictures electronic notes etc.). Creative and critical thinking is associated with vital skills which enable students to deal with often complex knowledge domains through an informal way of…

Naude, Kevin A.; Greyling, Jean H.; Vogts, Dieter – Computers & Education, 2010
We present a novel approach to the automated marking of student programming assignments. Our technique quantifies the structural similarity between unmarked student submissions and marked solutions, and is the basis by which we assign marks. This is accomplished through an efficient novel graph similarity measure ("AssignSim"). Our experiments…

Yang, Juan; Han, Xibin; Zhou, Qian – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2011
With the rapidly increasing entrance examinations for the School of Continuing education of CUGB, there is an urgent need of the examination papers that have the parallel testing ability for the same academic program. Based on the analysis of parallel factors and the comparison of the manual generated mode and the computer generated mode, the most…

Ferster, Bill; Hammond, Thomas C.; Alexander, R. Curby; Lyman, Hunt – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2012
The hurried pace of the modern classroom does not permit formative feedback on writing assignments at the frequency or quality recommended by the research literature. One solution for increasing individual feedback to students is to incorporate some form of computer-generated assessment. This study explores the use of automated assessment of…

Triantafyllakos, George; Palaigeorgiou, George; Tsoukalas, Ioannis A. – Computers & Education, 2011
In this paper, we present a framework for the development of collaborative design games that can be employed in participatory design sessions with students for the design of educational applications. The framework is inspired by idea generation theory and the design games literature, and guides the development of board games which, through the use…

Cox, Troy L.; Davies, Randall S. – CALICO Journal, 2012
This study examined the use of automatic speech recognition (ASR) scored elicited oral response (EOR) tests to assess the speaking ability of English language learners. It also examined the relationship between ASR-scored EOR and other language proficiency measures and the ability of the ASR to rate speakers without bias to gender or native…
