Modelling learners' understanding through node-link analysis and scoring

Assessment is an important component of learning and it also noted that many examinations make heavily used of short answers. This assessment can be a tedious task. This research work proposed a technique that models the teacher's and learner's knowledge to evaluate short free text answer....

This assessment can be a tedious task. This research work proposed a technique that models the teacher's and learner's knowledge to evaluate short free text answer. It is based on a hybrid approach that combines natural language processing, a node-link as a representation technique and the application of information theory in the measurement of learners' understanding. Pearson correlation and exact-and-adjacent agreement have been used as a measurement instrument. Results show that the proposed technique can be applied for the assessment of learners' understanding in tertiary and school level for computer science and science domain. 2010 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://irep.iium.edu.my/38032/1/Modelling_Learners%27_Understanding_through_Node-link_Analysis_and_Scoring.pdf Lajis, Adidah and Abdul Aziz, Normaziah (2010) Modelling learners' understanding through node-link analysis and scoring.
