Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide a semi-automated system and method for assessment of student work product. The method may comprise obtaining a plurality of student work product from a plurality of students, identifying motifs present in the student work product, forming a subset of motifs, clustering the work product into clusters based on the subset of motifs, receiving an assessment from a teacher relevant to clusters and providing assessment for a work product based on the cluster assessment. Methods according to embodiments of the invention may reduce teachers' review and feedback time and increase consistency and quality of feedback given to students.
Claims1
A method for assessment of student work product comprising:
- receiving, via a computing device, a plurality of student work products from a plurality of students;
- identifying motifs present in the student work product using a computing device;
- generating, by the computing device, a motif bank based on the motifs present in the student work products;
- processing, by the computing device, the motif bank using a sequence alignment algorithm to provide an optimum of maximum coverage with minimum overlap of student work products based on motifs;
- clustering the work product into clusters using a computing device based on motifs present in the student work product;
- receiving an assessment from a teacher, the assessment based on the clusters;
- and
- generating a student assessment for at least one of the plurality of student work products, the student assessment based on the assessment of the clusters.
