[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't these test usually take almost a year to get results.  How are they going to incorporate in the grade with that timeline?[/quote]
Artificial Intelligence. Testing companies have had two years of pilot test data to train AI on after real graders did scoring. They probably did 1st year real scoring and then trained the AI, and then 2nd year validate the AI scoring and adjust.[/quote]
This actually happened in UK

That's not the same thing. In the UK, students didn't actually take A-level exams in 2020. Instead, the teachers "estimated" how they thought their students would have performed on the exams, and then the algorithm weighted the scores based on previous school average performance (assuming the teachers would inflate the grades.)

Take 60k writing samples from the 2021 LMISA scored normally by human readers and train an AI on that data. In 2022 have the AI score the written answers and double check it's accuracy against human scoring. In 2023, don't use any questions the AI didn't score accurately in 2022, and then you can turn around results in the 9 days promised.[/quote]
