Abstract

Measuring the effects of teaching on a larger scale is a promising approach in educational research. However, the costs for manual or semi-manual methods are prohibitively large when dealing with larger groups of students. Automated system are needed therefore, to assist in the process of collecting and evaluating the data. To this end, we propose a system of 3 components that allow the large scale assessment of concept-maps in order to detect the development of knowledge and misconceptions of larger groups of students.
