IEyeGASE: An Intelligent Eye Gaze-Based Assessment System for Deeper Insights into Learner Performance

Abstract

In the current education environment, learning takes place outside the physical classroom, and tutors need to determine whether learners are absorbing the content delivered to them. Online assessment has become a viable option for tutors to establish the achievement of course learning outcomes by learners. It provides real-time progress and immediate results; however, it has challenges in quantifying learner aspects like wavering behavior, confidence level, knowledge acquired, quickness in completing the task, task engagement, inattentional blindness to critical information, etc. An intelligent eye gaze-based assessment system called IEyeGASE is developed to measure insights into these behavioral aspects of learners. The system can be integrated into the existing online assessment system and help tutors re-calibrate learning goals and provide necessary corrective actions.

Implementation of Eye-Tracking Recording Tool into Narupa iMD VR Environment for Application in Chemistry Education

“…With this technology implemented in educational practice a noninvasive assessment of student’s characteristics will be possible in real time, and will not require them to fill in tedious questionnaires and complete cognitive tests. In the case of online testing, this has recently been implemented with the “Intelligent Gaze Based Assessment System” . Another possible application of the eye-movement patterns identified is the creation of training videos in which the examiner’s visual attention can be analyzed, annotated, and presented to students along with the examiner’s instructions, comments, and advice.…”

“…In the case of online testing, this has recently been implemented with the "Intelligent Gaze Based Assessment System". 83 Another possible application of the eye-movement patterns identified is the creation of training videos in which the examiner's visual attention can be analyzed, annotated, and presented to students along with the examiner's instructions, comments, and advice. Similar eye movement modeling examples (EMMEs) visualizing human (expert) eye movements have already been tried for IT training.…”

Eye movements dataset for objective-based assessment of object-oriented programming knowledge

“…The objective assessment was based on the lower level of Bloom's Taxonomy [1] called Remembrance on topics like keywords, operators, decision-making, loops, constructors, object creation, and initialization of object-oriented programming paradigm. The dataset was analyzed to get insights into cognitive traits like confidence level, quickness in task completion, task engagement, inattentional blindness to critical information, and wavering behavior [2] . The dataset is available for researchers to analyze various aspects of learners in an objective-based assessment.…”

Experimental Evaluation of EMKEY: An Assistive Technology for People with Upper Limb Disabilities

“…However, they cannot be used by people with partial or no mobility in their upper limbs. To overcome these problems, several systems have been developed with the aim of enabling people to access and to use a computer independently without needing assistance from others [10][11][12][13][14][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38].…”

“…Computer vision has been used to interact with a personal computer (PC) in many ways, with the common goal of simulating the functionality of a mouse, since it is the main tool used for controlling the computer. The authors in [11,12,[29][30][31] accomplished this task through eye tracking using sophisticated devices with which the user can interact. However, the use of external devices on the body can be intrusive and uncomfortable for the user.…”
