This paper introduces AMMORE, a new dataset of 53,000 math open-response question-answer pairs from Rori, a mathematics learning platform used by middle and high school students in several African countries. Using this dataset, we conducted two experiments to evaluate the use of large language models (LLM) for grading particularly challenging…

We report on an innovative design of algorithmic analysis that supports automatic online assessment of students' exploration of geometry propositions in a dynamic geometry environment. We hypothesized that difficulties with and misuse of terms or logic in conjectures are rooted in the early exploration stages of inquiry. We developed a generic…

The increased reliance on Big Data Analytics (BDA) in society, politics, policy, and industry has catalyzed conversations related to the need for promoting ethical reasoning and decision-making in the mathematical sciences. While the majority of professional data scientists today come from privileged positions in society, those processed by the…

New educational technologies present an opportunity to help teachers monitor and support their students remotely in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). However, most technologies do not have the capacity to comprehensively assess and report on students' critical 21st century practice competencies (such as those described in…

The proceedings of the 18th edition of Latin American Conference on Learning Technologies (LACLO) demonstrates the developments in the research of learning science, learning resources, challenges and solutions. This Proceedings book showcases a collection of quality articles that explores and discusses trending topics in education in the upcoming…

This report examines the placement of Teacher for America (TFA) teachers and examines their impact on the learning gains of their students during the 2013-14 school year. Sets of eligible TFA teachers were identified in 2013-14 from which the subset of teachers assigned to teach language arts and/or mathematics to students in grades 3 through 10…
