Liu, Ming; Rus, Vasile; Liu, Li – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2017
Question generation is an emerging research area of artificial intelligence in education. Question authoring tools are important in educational technologies, e.g., intelligent tutoring systems, as well as in dialogue systems. Approaches to generate factual questions, i.e., questions that have concrete answers, mainly make use of the syntactical…

Allen, Laura K.; Snow, Erica L.; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2016
A commonly held belief among educators, researchers, and students is that high-quality texts are easier to read than low-quality texts, as they contain more engaging narrative and story-like elements. Interestingly, these assumptions have typically failed to be supported by the literature on writing. Previous research suggests that higher quality…

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…

Valdés Aguirre, Benjamín; Ramírez Uresti, Jorge A.; du Boulay, Benedict – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2016
Sharing user information between systems is an area of interest for every field involving personalization. Recommender Systems are more advanced in this aspect than Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) and Intelligent Learning Environments (ILEs). A reason for this is that the user models of Intelligent Tutoring Systems and Intelligent Learning…
