Why is AI used?
To automatically extract and score student responses from photographed answer sheets (OCR/computer vision) and generate competency reports.
Description
Automated marking at scale accelerates feedback cycles and surfaces student learning gaps. AI-generated insights help target daily tasks to those in need. Ongoing validation supports grading fairness and teacher confidence.
Impact
Large-scale automated evaluation of answer sheets and generation of competency report cards/insights for teachers.
Development Challenge
Persistent low foundational literacy and numeracy due to limited individualized instruction and feedback
Technical information
