Each of these tasks can be facilitated or even automated with AI technologies.

AI Question Paper Generator

AI-Question-Paper-Generator

Creating or defining questions for online exams is a critical task that requires careful consideration of the exam syllabus, difficulty level, and objectives.

Evaluating specific students or subject-topic combinations also factors into this process. Traditionally, such tasks required the expertise of a subject matter expert.

However, AI technology now offers an efficient way to automate question generation. This system can take content from particular chapters or even entire PDFs to generate questions based on your specifications.

You’ll need to provide various inputs like subject topic hierarchy and difficulty levels. The system can also integrate with Bloom’s taxonomy if you want conceptually oriented questions.

If you’re looking to analyze problem-solving abilities or student knowability, simply provide these inputs and AI will produce unique questions at your chosen difficulty level.

Additionally, it allows customization in terms of question types – be they objective, descriptive, or coding related – depending on the examination schema.

The generated questions are not final; you have the ability to verify, update and alter them as needed before conducting the exam. Thus, AI simplifies and automates exam question paper generation saving countless man-hours tied up in manual creation processes while increasing examination frequency through its efficiency.

AI Descriptive Answer Evaluation

Revolutionizing-Education-Evaluation-AIs-Role-in-Assessing-Descriptive-Answers

Evaluating descriptive answers is typically a lengthy process for examiners, involving meticulous reading of extended student responses.

The task becomes even more daunting when faced with 5,000 to 10,000-plus answers. This not only calls for multiple examiners but also introduces bias and dependency issues. Moreover, the evaluation could take weeks or even months.

Now imagine using AI technology to automate this process. With AI’s ability to analyze model answers and previously evaluated responses by the examiners, it can intelligently identify patterns and conduct evaluations efficiently.

If you’re looking to save significant time on evaluating descriptive answers or want an automated solution that reduces cost and frees up examiner man-hours during the evaluation process – consider exploring AI-based answer evaluation.
