sAInaptic's AI marking algorithm, has proven to be as good as high-stakes examiners, which is set to revolutionise the assessment process. Unlike some other existing AI tools, our AI is not merely looking for 'keywords' in student answers nor does it 'group' similar student answers together; it is trained to deeply understand and evaluate the content described in the students answer, based on mark schemes associated with the questions. In this blog post, we'll explore how sAInaptic's AI algorithm works and the remarkable benefits it offers to both educators and students.
sAInaptic's algorithm is trained on questions and their associated mark schemes. This allows it to learn what concepts a teacher is looking for in the student answer. This is similar to how teachers and examiners also follow mark schemes to mark descriptive student responses. It's essential to emphasise that this is vastly different from superficial keyword matching - sAInaptic's AI delves into the core concepts behind the questions. A key reason behind the high accuracy of our AI marking is that we have a human-in-the-loop feedback system in place - when teachers review the AI marking and flag inconsistencies, these are used the re-train the AI, ensuring that the marking accuracy improves with time.
One of the standout features of sAInaptic's AI is its natural language understanding capabilities. It can process student answers, taking into account grammar, spelling, and sentence structure, ensuring that it evaluates answers comprehensively. This not only saves educators' time but also provides more accurate and insightful feedback to students.
sAInaptic's AI goes beyond conventional grading. It compares the concepts expressed in the student's answer with those in the mark scheme, making the assessment deeply insightful. This means that feedback includes qualitative information that provides students insights on their strengths and areas for improvement by identifying both concepts Present and Absent.
This is crucial in helping students identify gaps in their knowledge, especially in subjects like science, where a thorough understanding of a topic requires the ability to address and express a wide range of concepts. The AI helps pinpoint precisely which areas need more attention, allowing students to focus on their weaknesses.
Addressing Spelling Mistakes
In the process of evaluating answers, sAInaptic's AI corrects spelling mistakes. This not only ensures that the assessment is not compromised by minor errors but also aids students in developing better writing skills over time.
In subjects like science, where conceptual clarity is paramount, this AI promises to make a significant impact on how students learn and how educators teach. As we embrace the power of AI in education, sAInaptic's algorithm is a shining example of how technology can enhance the learning experience for all. It's not just about grading; it's about empowering students to reach their full potential.
Advances in AI are transforming e-assessments into more equitable and inclusive tools by mitigating biases, ensuring fair evaluations based on objective data, and providing transparent, explainable, and personalised assessment paths that foster a culture of fairness and inclusivity in the workplace.
