Zebo Xu; Prerit S. Mittal; Mohd. Mohsin Ahmed; Chandranath Adak; Zhenguang G. Cai – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
The rise of the digital era has led to a decline in handwriting as the primary mode of communication, resulting in negative effects on handwriting literacy, particularly in complex writing systems such as Chinese. The marginalization of handwriting has contributed to the deterioration of penmanship, defined as the ability to write aesthetically…

A Hybrid Approach for Automatic Generation of Named Entity Distractors for Multiple Choice Questions
Patra, Rakesh; Saha, Sujan Kumar – Education and Information Technologies, 2019
Assessment plays an important role in learning and Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) are quite popular in large-scale evaluations. Technology-enabled learning necessitates a smart assessment. Therefore, automatic MCQ generation became increasingly popular in the last two decades. Despite a large amount of research effort, system generated MCQs are…

Dalton, Sarah Grace; Stark, Brielle C.; Fromm, Davida; Apple, Kristen; MacWhinney, Brian; Rensch, Amanda; Rowedder, Madyson – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The aim of this study was to advance the use of structured, monologic discourse analysis by validating an automated scoring procedure for core lexicon (CoreLex) using transcripts. Method: Forty-nine transcripts from persons with aphasia and 48 transcripts from persons with no brain injury were retrieved from the AphasiaBank database. Five…

Amrane-Cooper, Linda; Hatzipanagos, Stylianos; Tait, Alan – European Journal of Open, Distance and E-Learning, 2023
In 2020, because of the COVID-19 pandemic the higher education sector, in the United Kingdom and internationally, transitioned to online assessment, at a speed and scale which might have been unimaginable under normal circumstances. The priority in the sector was to ensure that fundamental principles of assessment, including integrity, were…

Han, Chao; Xiao, Xiaoyan – Language Testing, 2022
The quality of sign language interpreting (SLI) is a gripping construct among practitioners, educators and researchers, calling for reliable and valid assessment. There has been a diverse array of methods in the extant literature to measure SLI quality, ranging from traditional error analysis to recent rubric scoring. In this study, we want to…

Linlin, Cao – English Language Teaching, 2020
Through Many-Facet Rasch analysis, this study explores the rating differences between 1 computer automatic rater and 5 expert teacher raters on scoring 119 students in a computerized English listening-speaking test. Results indicate that both automatic and the teacher raters demonstrate good inter-rater reliability, though the automatic rater…

Ramineni, Chaitanya; Trapani, Catherine S.; Williamson, David M.; Davey, Tim; Bridgeman, Brent – ETS Research Report Series, 2012
Scoring models for the "e-rater"® system were built and evaluated for the "TOEFL"® exam's independent and integrated writing prompts. Prompt-specific and generic scoring models were built, and evaluation statistics, such as weighted kappas, Pearson correlations, standardized differences in mean scores, and correlations with…

Wang, Jinhao; Brown, Michelle Stallone – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2008
The purpose of the current study was to analyze the relationship between automated essay scoring (AES) and human scoring in order to determine the validity and usefulness of AES for large-scale placement tests. Specifically, a correlational research design was used to examine the correlations between AES performance and human raters' performance.…

Karras, Bryant T.; Tufano, James T. – Evaluation and Program Planning, 2006
This paper describes the development process of an evaluation framework for describing and comparing web survey tools. We believe that this approach will help shape the design, development, deployment, and evaluation of population-based health interventions. A conceptual framework for describing and evaluating web survey systems will enable the…

Zechner, Klaus; Bejar, Isaac I.; Hemat, Ramin – ETS Research Report Series, 2007
The increasing availability and performance of computer-based testing has prompted more research on the automatic assessment of language and speaking proficiency. In this investigation, we evaluated the feasibility of using an off-the-shelf speech-recognition system for scoring speaking prompts from the LanguEdge field test of 2002. We first…

Flores, Kathryn Younger – 1995
This paper presents preliminary, but statistically significant, findings from a study that compares two methods of measuring instructional effectiveness: global evaluation by experts and systematic observation using the SCRIBE Ob.2 software developed at the University of Texas at Austin. Hierarchical instruction of a performance skill…
