Automated Scoring
Our Automated Scoring system eliminates the possibility of human fatigue impacting scoring reliability and consistency. The system can easily integrate with testing platforms and can be configured to score the wide variety of test items used in state-level and classroom assessments. Setting up the system requires a pre-scored sample of student responses. The system then emulates human scoring and scores more consistently than human raters. It can also be combined with human scoring to monitor scores and produce more accurate results. Our Automated Scoring system will detect rater drift very quickly in the scoring process, and helps to ensure drifting raters are identified early and re-trained.
The system offers:
- Quick turn-around time
- Scoring reliability and consistency
- Scoring accuracy
- Elimination of re-scoring
- Reduction of scoring costs (personnel, facilities, and training)
- Ability to retain constructed responses in state-level tests
- Elimination of teacher scoring, bringing change in instructional dynamics
