Qiao, Chen; Hu, Xiao – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Free text answers to short questions can reflect students' mastery of concepts and their relationships relevant to learning objectives. However, automating the assessment of free text answers has been challenging due to the complexity of natural language. Existing studies often predict the scores of free text answers in a "black box"…

C. H., Dhawaleswar Rao; Saha, Sujan Kumar – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Multiple-choice question (MCQ) plays a significant role in educational assessment. Automatic MCQ generation has been an active research area for years, and many systems have been developed for MCQ generation. Still, we could not find any system that generates accurate MCQs from school-level textbook contents that are useful in real examinations.…

Alammary, Ali – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
Developing effective assessments is a critical component of quality instruction. Assessments are effective when they are well-aligned with the learning outcomes, can confirm that all intended learning outcomes are attained, and their obtained grades are accurately reflecting the level of student achievement. Developing effective assessments is not…

Sun, Bo; Zhu, Yunzong; Xiao, Yongkang; Xiao, Rong; Wei, Yungang – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2019
In recent years, computerized adaptive testing (CAT) has gained popularity as an important means to evaluate students' ability. Assigning tags to test questions is crucial in CAT. Manual tagging is widely used for constructing question banks; however, this approach is time-consuming and might lead to consistency issues. Automatic question tagging,…

Nguyen, M. L.; Hui, Siu Cheung; Fong, A. C. M. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2013
Web-based testing has become a ubiquitous self-assessment method for online learning. One useful feature that is missing from today's web-based testing systems is the reliable capability to fulfill different assessment requirements of students based on a large-scale question data set. A promising approach for supporting large-scale web-based…
