Hybrid E-Assessment in Higher Education: Semi-Automated Grading of Paper-Based Written Examinations

Researchers propose a hybrid e-assessment system for higher education that combines paper-based examinations with semi-automated grading using vision-capable large language models. The approach addresses limitations of fully digital assessment while maintaining pedagogical integrity and scalability through handwritten character recognition and validation protocols.

Designing Reliable LLM-Assisted Rubric Scoring for Constructed Responses: Evidence from Physics Exams

Researchers evaluated GPT-4o's ability to score physics exam responses using rubric-assisted scoring, finding that AI reliability matches human inter-rater consistency when rubrics are well-structured and granular. The study reveals that clear rubric design matters far more than LLM configuration choices, with performance declining on ambiguous mid-range responses.

Explainability and Certification of AI-Generated Educational Assessments

Researchers propose a comprehensive framework for making AI-generated educational assessments transparent, explainable, and certifiable through self-rationalization, attribution analysis, and post-hoc verification. The framework introduces a metadata schema and traffic-light certification workflow designed to meet institutional accreditation standards, with proof-of-concept testing on 500 computer science questions demonstrating improved transparency and reduced instructor workload.
