Abstract
X5GON is an industry-leading Open Education Resource Provider. This project aims to help both students and teachers that may not have the resources to create questions for certain educational material. For teachers, it can be difficult to invent questions from scratch on new educational material. Also for students, it can be hard to assess and test themselves without the supervision of a teacher if they don't have the resources. Our software solves both of these problems.
In this project, we worked on developing a system that can generate questions from educational material by applying Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and used a database to keep track of the user's performance. We chose to generate multiple-choice (MC) and true or false questions since it is one of the fastest methods to check users' understanding and it is easy to keep track of performance. Our system can be used by anyone and it aims to be accessible to everyone.
We achieved the generation of multiple MC and true or false questions out of general educational material successfully. All the generated questions were up to very high standards and there were no non-sensical questions that might confuse the users.
