Leveraging CPTs in a Bayesian Approach to Grade Open Ended Answers

Here we discuss a framework (OpenAnswer) providing support to the teacher's activity of grading answers to open ended questions. OpenAnswer implements a teacher mediated peer-evaluation approach: the marking results obtained from peer assessments are tuned by the grades explicitly assigned by the teacher, the teacher grades only a subset of the answers, suggested by the system. When a termination criterion is met, for the process managing the amount of teacher grading work, the remaining answers are automatically graded.

The Assessment of Real Estate Initiatives to Be Included in the Socially-Responsible Funds

The acknowledgment of the ongoing economic and financial crisis involving real estate, creates the need to formulate proposals and scenarios (in real estate) with the characteristics of socially responsible investments. These kind of investments aim towards “sustainable” development both environmentally (safeguarding the shortage of resources such as land, energy, and natural elements), and socially (protecting the population and raising its level of well-being) according to so-called “ethical finance”, instead of a mere “speculative” investment.
