In the manual process of evaluation and result compilation, errors in marking, tabulation, recording, calculation coupled with the impact of Examiner subjectivity or Examiner variability, are very common. Most of the currently used methods partially address these problems by employing additional human resources and time. There is a need to adopt a unified approach that would ensure uniformity within and across examiners and deal with errors associated with evaluation and result compilation more effectively. This paper presents a pragmatic and experientially developed computer assisted evaluation of subjective answer scripts using rubrics. The proposed approach focuses on improving the evaluation and result compilation tasks by reducing/eliminating the errors and examiner variability to re-align the examination system from highly error prone to extremely robust and reliable stream.","PeriodicalId":151911,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Sixth International Conference on Technology for Education","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127006194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Questions required vary widely along many dimensions such as cognitive level, difficulty level content and question type depending upon the context in which it is used. This paper proposes a software system that semi-automatically generates metadata for items in a question repository. The metadata in this paper corresponds to \"cognitive level\", \"question type\", \"content\" and \"difficulty level\". The developed system was tested for its usability and accuracy and the results are promising. The accuracy with respect to automatic generation of cognitive level tags was 78% and other tags were generated with more than 90% accuracy. Usability testing has shown that the system is user friendly and useful in multiple ways.","PeriodicalId":151911,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Sixth International Conference on Technology for Education","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116557938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Virtual labs are a set of web applications containing learning materials that compliment the various courses in an Engineering curriculum.

In this paper, we propose a method for providing access to virtual labs for all those lack internet access. Our aim is to facilitate availability and usage of Virtual Labs without network connectivity. We preinstall the virtual labs with full environment on an Operating System and also use Debian packages for easy installation of the labs on existing Operating System.","PeriodicalId":151911,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Sixth International Conference on Technology for Education","volume":"83 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113933336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The questions pertain to the use, quality and relevance of e-content, such as NPTEL, used by students. Questions related to faculty quality, need for online educational services, content, technologies, pedagogies, research and extension are also posed to the sample. The responses of 5161 respondents are compared and analyzed across their current profile and opinion statements on NPTEL regarding whether NPTEL leads to enrichment, whether NPTEL can supplement classroom teaching and their preferred language for lecture content.

Such problems involve the building of physical and mathematical models of real-world scenarios, identifying correct parameters of the model, devising numerical solution methods, and optimizing the solution. In typical engineering courses, solution methods are demonstrated in problem-solving tutorials while programming is relegated to homework or lab, wherein students may not get ample feedback on their choices of optimization or solution evaluation. In this paper, we propose a strategy, Guided Problem Solving and Group Programming (GPGP) to overcome this gap. Students work in peer groups within class, to build and implement their mathematical models and solutions, then write programs to do optimization and evaluation. We implemented this strategy in a 4th year electrical engineering course in which GPGP was done four times over the semester. We assessed students' performance on dimensions of problem solving such as representing the problem, developing solution, making justification for proposed solution and monitoring and evaluating problem space and solutions across the semester and found a statistically significant improvement. Further students perceived that they had learned engineering problem solving via GPGP and reported enjoying the strategy in class.","PeriodicalId":151911,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Sixth International Conference on Technology for Education","volume":"58 22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121990029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
