Evaluation of learning and assessment content has always been a crucial task in the educational domain, but traditional approaches based on human feedback are not always usable in modern educational settings. Indeed, the advent of machine learning models, in particular Large Language Models (LLMs), enabled to quickly and automatically generate large quantities of data, making human evaluation unfeasible. Similarly, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have numbers of attending students so large that it is unsustainable to manually provide feedback to all of them. Thus, the need for accurate and automated techniques for evaluating educational content – e.g., questions, hints, and feedback – became pressing. Building on the success of the First Workshop on the Automatic Evaluation of Learning and Assessment Content, which was held at AIED 2024, this workshop aims to attract professionals from both academia and industry, and to to offer an opportunity to discuss common challenges, share best practices, and promising new research directions.
Topics of interests include but are not limited to:
Human-in-the-loop approaches are welcome, provided that there is also an automated component in the evaluation and there is a focus on the scalability of the proposed approach. Papers on generation are also very welcome, as long as there is an extensive focus on the evaluation step.
Full and short papers: We are accepting short papers (5 pages, excluding references) and long papers (10 pages, excluding references), formatted according to the workshop style (using either the LaTeX template or the DOCX template). Extended abstracts: We also accept extended abstracts (max 2 pages), to showcase work in progress and preliminary results. Papers should be formatted according to the workshop style (using either the LaTeX template or the DOCX template).
Submissions should contain mostly novel work, but there can be some overlap between the submission and work submitted elsewhere (e.g., summaries, focus on the evaluation phase of a broader work). Each of the submissions will be reviewed by the members of the Program Committee, and the proceedings volume will be submitted for publication to CEUR Workshop Proceedings. Due to CEUR-WS.org policies, only full and short papers will be submitted for publication, not the extended abstracts.
