In order to avoid students' negative learning mood, contemporary teachers are required to abandon the application of spoon-feeding teaching method in English classroom teaching, adopt micro-class teaching method, highlight the teaching characteristics of being close to the people, and create an efficient, short, and special teaching space to meet…

Background: Perceptual measures such as speech intelligibility are known to be biased, variant and subjective, to which an automatic approach has been seen as a more reliable alternative. On the other hand, automatic approaches tend to lack explainability, an aspect that can prevent the widespread usage of these technologies clinically. Aims: In…

Intelligent systems of essay grading constitute important tools for educational technologies. They can significantly replace the manual scoring efforts and provide instructional feedback as well. These systems typically include two main parts: a feature extractor and an automatic grading model. The latter is generally based on computational and…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the factors that influence behavioural intention (BI) to use the Online Summary-with Automated Feedback (OSAF) in a MOOCs platform. Task-Technology Fit (TTF) was the main framework used to analyse the match between task requirements and technology characteristics, predictng the utilisation of the…

Providing automated feedback that facilitates the practice and acquisition of oral presentation skills has been one of the notable applications of multimodal learning analytics (MmLA). However, the closedness and general unavailability of existing systems have reduced their potential impact and benefits. This work introduces OpenOPAF, an…

Learning engagement is an essential indication to define students' learning pacification in the class, and its automated identification technique is the foundation for exploring how to effectively explain the motive of learning impact modifications and making intelligent teaching choices. Current research have demonstrated that there is a direct…

Automated Essay Scoring (AES) is a well-studied problem in Natural Language Processing applied in education. Solutions vary from handcrafted linguistic features to large Transformer-based models, implying a significant effort in feature extraction and model implementation. We introduce a novel Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) pipeline…

Contribution: This research designs an experimental education project of an automatic material magnetism properties measurement system. It explores how the do-it-yourself (DIY), hands-on establishment, and hardware-software integration experiment system could be leveraged to enhance the understanding of the electromagnetism theory and…

Systematic reviews are vital instruments for researchers to understand broad trends in a field and synthesize evidence on the effectiveness of interventions in addressing specific issues. The quality of a systematic review depends critically on having comprehensively surveyed all relevant literature on the review topic. In addition to database…

Traditionally, researchers employ human raters for scoring responses to creative thinking tasks. Apart from the associated costs this approach entails two potential risks. First, human raters can be subjective in their scoring behavior (inter-rater-variance). Second, individual raters are prone to inconsistent scoring patterns…

Peer grading has diverse applications in many fields, including the peer grading of open assignments in online courses. The major challenge in peer grading is improving the seriousness (reviewing carefully) of reviewers. Previous studies have proposed several incentive reward mechanisms intended to reward or punish reviewers. Although these…

It's critical to foster artificial intelligence (AI) literacy for high school students, the first generation to grow up surrounded by AI, to understand working mechanism of data-driven AI technologies and critically evaluate automated decisions from predictive models. While efforts have been made to engage youth in understanding AI through…

This study aimed to develop an automated computer scoring system (ACSS) incorporating a Korean spell checker to assess students' constructed responses and to check the efficacy of this system. To accomplish this, we examined the performance of automatic spelling correction in reporting and correcting spelling errors, the interaction of gender and…

The influence of algorithms on society is increasing due to their growing presence in all areas of daily life. Although we are not always aware of it, they sometimes usurp the identity of other social actors. The main purpose of this article is to address the meta-research on the field of artificial intelligence and communication from a holistic…
