ABSTRACT
In this paper, we report on a model that uses a mathematically and cognitively augmented Latent Semantic Analysis method to automatically assess aspects of written argumentation, produced by students in a science communication course.

Feedback on Student Programming Assignments: Teaching Assistants vs Automated Assessment Tool
Koli Calling '23: Proceedings of the 23rd Koli Calling International Conference on Computing Education ResearchExisting research does not quantify and compare the differences between automated and manual assessment in the context of feedback on programming assignments. This makes it hard to reason about the effects of adopting automated assessment at the expense ...
