arXiv:2606. 20264v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Student-generated drawings are widely used in science education to assess learners' conceptual understanding in modeling-based tasks aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
arXiv:2607. 18767v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The deployment of Small Language Models (SLMs) in educational settings offers significant advantages in terms of privacy, cost, and scalability.
arXiv:2608. 19355v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Educational visual question answering, or VQA, requires models to solve curriculum-oriented multiple-choice questions using both language and visual evidence.
arXiv:2609.14284v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Criterion-level grading connects examination performance to learning outcomes, but manual marking introduces workload and variation between markers. Th...
arXiv:2609.26733v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapidly advancing capabilities of vision-language models (VLMs) present a systemic challenge to academic integrity. VLMs now allow students to bypa...
arXiv:2606. 11477v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Correcting handwritten exams by hand is time-consuming and error-prone, particularly for large cohorts, while fully digital exams tend to force a didactic narrowing towards closed question formats.
arXiv:2609.33399v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In realistic education, a solution is often expressed not only in words but in a drawing--a circuit, a geometric construction, a function plot--and...
arXiv:2608. 01664v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present our ImageCLEF 2026 Multimodal Reasoning system for the Visual Multiple Choice Question Answering (Visual MCQ) and Visual Open Question Answering (Visual OpenQA) subtasks.
Automated classroom engagement recognition holds substantial promise for scalable learning analytics, yet the suitability of modern Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for this task under zero-shot conditions remains largely unexplored. We present a systematic benchmark that evaluates five widely-used VLMs: CLIP, BLIP-VQA, GPT-4o, LLaVA-1.
arXiv:2606. 12422v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The integration of large language models (LLMs) into educational assessment represents a transformative shift in classroom grading practices.
arXiv:2504.02323v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have created new opportunities to assist teachers and support student learning. While researchers have explored variou...
arXiv:2607. 08317v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern AI models achieve strong performance on many established benchmarks, yet they still fail on tasks that humans find almost trivial, such as manipulating a string or drawing a dog with five legs.
arXiv:2603. 00056v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: STEM Mental models can play a critical role in assessing students' conceptual understanding of a topic.
