A Practical Guide for Supporting Formative Assessment and Feedback Using Generative AI
Formative assessment is a cornerstone of effective teaching and learning, providing students with feedback to guide their learning. While there has been an exponential growth in the application of generative AI in scaling various aspects of formative assessment, ranging from automatic question generation to intelligent tutoring systems and personalized feedback, few have directly addressed the core pedagogical principles of formative assessment. Here, we critically examined how generative AI, e…

Has anyone tried to advance the idea of GLOP-like #IPv6 prefix assignments?
There are probably at least as many arguments against such a proposal than there would be to advance it, but is often useful to say we asked that question and came to a consensus in why or why not.
The reasons for might include using it for private address space or just to have globally autonomous assignments o…

Human Empathy as Encoder: AI-Assisted Depression Assessment in Special Education
Assessing student depression in sensitive environments like special education is challenging. Standardized questionnaires may not fully reflect students' true situations. Furthermore, automated methods often falter with rich student narratives, lacking the crucial, individualized insights stemming from teachers' empathetic connections with students. Existing methods often fail to address this ambiguity or effectively integrate educator understanding. To address these limitations by fostering a …

Impact of Pre-Assessment and Post-Assessment in an Introductory Real Analysis Course
This study explores how pre- and post-assessments shape learning outcomes in an Introductory Real Analysis course. Pre-assessments act as learning roadmaps, highlighting prior knowledge and guiding student focus, while post-assessments measure growth and conceptual mastery. By analyzing student performance and feedback, we assess their impact on engagement, self-efficacy, and deeper mathematical understanding. The findings offer valuable insights for enhancing instructional strategies and foste…

Optimizing Perishable and Non-Perishable Product Assignment to Packaging Lines in a Sustainable Manufacturing System: An AUGMECON2VIKOR Algorithm
Identifying appropriate manufacturing systems for products can be considered a pivotal manufacturing task contributing to the optimization of operational and planning activities. It has gained importance in the food industry due to the distinct constraints and considerations posed by perishable and non-perishable items in this problem. Hence, this study proposes a new mathematical model according to knowledge discovery as well as an assignment model to optimize manufacturing systems for perisha…
