I have completed my Ph.D under the supervision of Dr.E.Foxley and Dr.C.Higgins. My thesis has the title ” A Framework for the Computer Based Assessment (CBA) of Diagram Based Coursework“. It asserts that developing free-response CBA for coursework that is solved by students drawing diagrams, is both feasible and useful. To substantiate these claims, in the almost seven years period of my phd, I’ve designed, implemented and tested DATsys, a system which significantly eases the development of automatically assessed coursework that requires diagram-based solution.
