Rex Tech Talk: AI and Student Assessment
Everyone loves assessments! Teachers love giving assessments! Students love taking assessments! Teachers love grading assessments! Just kidding! We know that assessments are just a necessary evil.
That being said, assessments don’t have to be as painful as they used to be. With AI tools available now, teachers can use these tools to reduce the pain in making, grading, and more!
1. Automated Grading
- Multiple-Choice & Short-Answer: AI-powered tools like Gradescope, Google Forms, or LMS-integrated AI graders can quickly assess and provide feedback.
- Essays & Written Responses: AI tools like Turnitin, Grammarly, or OpenAI-powered writing assistants can evaluate grammar, coherence, plagiarism, and even offer rubric-based grading.
2. AI-Powered Formative Assessment
- AI-driven quizzes (Kahoot, Quizizz with AI insights, and TLP 2.0 by Rex) analyze student responses and suggest areas for improvement.
- Tools like Carnegie Learning’s MATHia adapt to student weaknesses and provide personalized instruction.
3. Learning Analytics & Performance Prediction
- AI can analyze patterns in student data (engagement, past performance) to predict learning gaps and suggest interventions.
- Examples: IBM Watson, Google’s AutoML, and LMS AI dashboards (Canvas, Blackboard).
4. AI for Personalized Feedback
- AI-generated feedback provides immediate, detailed, and constructive insights based on rubrics.
- Example: Turnitin Revision Assistant suggests real-time improvements..
5. Plagiarism & Originality Detection
