AI Assessment System

Auto-generates question banks and evaluates open responses in real-time, with gamification that increased post-exam engagement by 20%.

01 — Problem

Manual, Slow, and Limited

The existing evaluation system depended entirely on manual work, supporting only closed-ended questions.

Time-Intensive Creation

Creating quality question banks required extensive manual effort, delaying course launches.

Limited Question Types

Only multiple-choice questions were supported, preventing deeper evaluation of student understanding.

Poor Engagement

Static exam experiences led to high abandonment rates and low motivation to complete assessments.

02 — Solution

AI-Powered Assessment Creation & Grading

An intelligent system that automatically generates comprehensive question banks and evaluates both closed and open-ended responses with gamification elements.

Question Bank Generation

When a course is created, the system automatically generates a comprehensive question bank by analyzing lesson content.

Questions are stored in a database, tagged by lesson and type (multiple choice, open-ended, fill-in-blank), ready to be served when students take exams.

Random Question Selection

Each time a student starts an exam, the system randomly selects one question per lesson. The algorithm ensures variety while maintaining a minimum threshold of open-ended questions to assess deeper comprehension.

Exam Assembly - One question per lesson, 25% open-ended minimum

Real-Time Open-Ended Grading

For open-ended questions, AI evaluates responses instantly by comparing student answers against expected responses and lesson context. The system doesn't just look for keywords—it assesses conceptual understanding and accuracy.

Gamified Experience

Students see immediate feedback with animations for correct/incorrect answers, building answer streaks that add competitive motivation. If they fail, they can retry incorrect questions within the allowed timeframe rather than retaking the entire exam.

04 — Key Learnings

What I Learned Building This

Gamification Drives Completion

Adding streaks, animations, and retry mechanics transformed exams from intimidating barriers into engaging experiences. Small UX details had outsized impact on motivation.

AI Enables Deeper Assessment

Open-ended evaluation was previously impossible at scale. AI grading unlocked richer assessment types without requiring manual instructor review for every response.

Instant Feedback Matters

Real-time grading and immediate certificate sharing created positive reinforcement loops. Students appreciated knowing results instantly rather than waiting for manual review.
