LLM pipeline enables scalable conversational exams with two-agent system

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a novel two-agent LLM pipeline for scalable conversational assessment, designed to conduct interactive text-based exams. This system separates the interviewer from a hidden evaluator, with the interviewer engaging the student and the evaluator guiding the process and tracking progress. The system was tested with simulated students and deployed in an AI literacy course, with ongoing efforts to refine question generation and grading accuracy. AI

IMPACT This system could enable more scalable and interactive educational assessments, particularly for complex subjects like AI literacy.

    Scalable Conversational Assessment: Chat-Based Exams with a Two-Agent LLM Pipeline

    arXiv:2611.17220v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Oral exams are compelling because (1) students can be asked to provide their reasoning for an answer and (2) their interactive nature permits follow-up questions to resolve ambiguous answers. But oral exams scale poorly. In this p…
