Automatic Item Text Generation in Educational Assessment
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an automatic text generation system (ATG) developed for the generation of natural language text for automatically produced test items. This ATG has been developed to work with an automatic item generation system for analytical reasoning items for use in tests with high-stakes outcomes (such as college admissions decisions). As such, the development and implementation of this ATG is couched in the context and goals of automated item generation for educational assessment.

Improvement of generative adversarial networks for automatic text-to-image generation
This research is related to the use of deep learning tools and image processing technology in the automatic generation of images from text. Previous researches have used one sentence to produce images. In this research, a memory-based hierarchical model is presented that uses three different descriptions that are presented in the form of sentences to produce and improve the image. The proposed ...

Objective The growing popularity of Automatic Item Generation (AIG) can be attributed to the increasing demand for the production of large pools of operational test items. AIG is an algorithmic way of generating assessment tasks which combines cognitive theories, psychometric practices and computer technologies. The outcome of this algorithmic transcriptions of assessment task is 1986). The ite...
متن کاملReusing Textual Resources in Educational Assessment: Adding Text Readability Metrics to Learning Metadata
Many digital libraries have identified learners as a core audience. Indeed, many of their resources can be reused in educational contexts. Nevertheless, the search criteria used for retrieving texts as a specific multimedia type are limited. They often do not include properties specific to educational contexts. Assigning LOM metadata to a theatre play or a painting is difficult, since it was no...
متن کاملAutomatic Factual Question Generation from Text
Texts with potential educational value are becoming available through the Internet (e.g., Wikipedia, news services). However, using these new texts in classrooms introduces many challenges, one of which is that they usually lack practice exercises and assessments. Here, we address part of this challenge by automating the creation of a specific type of assessment item. Specifically, we focus on ...
متن کاملMethods for Creating and Evaluating the Item Model Structure Used In Automatic Item Generation
represents a relatively new but rapidly evolving research area where cognitive theories, computer technologies, and psychometric practices are used to generate items. In its most ambitious form, AIG can be described as the process of using models to generate statistically calibrated items with the aid of computer technology. Significant developments in AIG research and practice have occurred in...
