Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for scoring a constructed response generated by a user and providing information on the user's writing behavior. A constructed response and associated electronic process log are received. The constructed response is processed to generate first feature values representative of aspects of the constructed response. The electronic process log is processed to generate second feature values related to the user's actions in generating the constructed response. A score for the constructed response is generated using the processing system by applying a computer scoring model to the first and second feature values. A rule of a rule engine that is satisfied is identified, the rule being satisfied when one or more feature values of the second feature values meet a condition associated with the rule. Information on the user's actions in generating the constructed response is provided based on the satisfied rule.
Systems And Methods For Automated Scoring Of A User's Performance
Systems and methods are provided for evaluating a user's performance. A first mobile communications device is configured to capture first audio and visual data of a user's performance. The first audio and video data are analyzed by the first device during the user's performance to determine if audio and video quality requirements are met. A second mobile communications device is configured to capture second audio and visual data of the user's performance, the second visual data capturing a different field of view than the first visual data. The second audio and visual data are transmitted by the second device to a remote computing system. The transmitted data is analyzed at the remote computing system to determine if the user is receiving utilizing unauthorized material in the performance. A computer-based scoring system is configured to determine a score for the user's performance based on the first audio and visual data.
