Papasalouros, Andreas; Chatzigiannakou, Maria – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
Automating the production of questions for assessment and self-assessment has become recently an active field of study. The use of Semantic Web technologies has certain advantages over other methods for question generation and thus is one of the most important lines of research for this problem. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of…

Zesch, Torsten; Horbach, Andrea; Melanie Goggin, Melanie; Wrede-Jackes, Jennifer – Research-publishing.net, 2018
We present a tool for the creation and curation of C-tests. C-tests are an established tool in language proficiency testing and language learning. They require examinees to complete a text in which the second half of every second word is replaced by a gap. We support teachers and test designers in creating such tests through a web-based system…

MacArthur, Charles A.; Jennings, Amanda; Philippakos, Zoi A. – Grantee Submission, 2018
The study developed a model of linguistic constructs to predict writing quality for college basic writers and analyzed how those constructs changed following instruction. Analysis used a corpus of argumentative essays from a quasi-experimental, instructional study with 252 students (MacArthur, Philippakos, & Ianetta, 2015) that found large…

Chen, Zhaorui; Demmans, Carrie – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
Discussion forums are used to support socio-collaborative learning processes among students in online courses. However, complex forum structures and lengthy discourse require that students spend their limited time searching and filtering through posts to find those that are relevant to them rather than spending that time engaged in other…

Machado, Crystiano José Richard; Maciel, Alexandre Magno Andrade; Rodrigues, Rodrigo Lins – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2019
Discussion forums in learning management systems (LMS) have been shown to promote student interaction and contribute to the collaborative practice in the teaching-learning process. By evaluating the postings, teachers can identify students with learning difficulties. However, due to the large volume of posts that are generated on a daily basis in…

Afzal, Shazia; Dempsey, Bryan; D'Helon, Cassius; Mukhi, Nirmal; Pribic, Milena; Sickler, Aaron; Strong, Peggy; Vanchiswar, Mira; Wilde, Lorin – Childhood Education, 2019
As artificially intelligent systems make their foray into the day-to-day educational experiences of students, we need to pay careful attention to the relationship between the system and the student. In this article, the authors discuss designing the personality of a virtual tutoring system called IBM Watson Tutor. The AI personality is key to the…

Ní Chiaráin, Neasa; Ní Chasaide, Ailbhe – Research-publishing.net, 2019
A key benefit in intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (iCALL) is that it allows complex linguistic phenomena to be incorporated into digital learning platforms, either for the autonomous learner or to complement classroom teaching. The present paper describes (1) complex phonological/ morphophonemic alternations of Irish, which are…

Feng, Shihui; Law, Nancy – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2021
In this study, we review 1830 research articles on artificial intelligence in education (AIED), with the aim of providing a holistic picture of the knowledge evolution in this interdisciplinary research field from 2010 to 2019. A novel three-step approach in the analysis of the keyword co-occurrence networks (KCN) is proposed to identify the…
