Generalised Diagramming Tools with Automatic Marking
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe an approach to the generalisation of tools for teaching and learning the skills associated with modelling with diagrams. The paper briefly describes the existing revision tools and our approach to automatic marking of diagrams. We report on our work to generalise both the marking algorithm and the drawing editor in such a way that revision tools can be easily generated for new domains. We also report how we have incorporated our tools into our institution’s Moodle-based Virtual Learning Environment (VLE).

An approach to the automatic grading of imprecise diagrams
In this paper we describe our approach to the grading (marking) of graph-based diagrams for instance those produced by students in the area of Entity-Relationship (E-R) diagrams. This is an application of a more general problem and is based on our framework for diagram understanding. We believe that techniques of NLP commonly used in understanding text have equivalents in the understanding of d...
متن کاملAutomated Tool Support for a Large Scale Diagramming Tool
GRACE is a large-scale diagramming tool constructed with the aid of automated tools from the Design Maintenance System (DMS ). Diagramming tools as a component of meta-case tools are common in the development of new software engineering projects. The design and development of GRACE addresses the development of a large-scale diagramming tool for the software maintenance area. The nature of legac...
متن کاملWorkshop on Sketch tools for diagramming
Diagrams are widely used as abstract models of systems. The act of creating the initial diagram is a common problem solving strategy. Most diagrams are conceived and created with an old-fashioned pen on a piece of blank paper or a whiteboard. Current widget based tools, in contrast, are unsuitable for early design support because of the constraints they place on the user. Sketch diagramming too...
متن کاملStudying Group Decision Making in Affinity Diagramming
Affinity diagramming is a commonly used contextual design practice for which many tools have been developed. However, experts and novices alike eschew tool use, instead using traditional paper and whiteboard methods. This paper presents observations of traditional affinity diagramming sessions, focusing on three areas of consideration—shared awareness, cognitive offloading, and understanding, o...
متن کاملPersonalised Feedback with Semi-automatic Assessment Tool for Conceptual Database Model
The increased presence of diagram-type student work in higher education has recently attracted researchers to look into the automation of diagram marking. This paper intro duces web-based diagram drawing and marking tools for a new (semi-automatic) assessment approach. The approach reduces the number of diagram components marked by the human marker and provides individualised and detailed feedb...
