Computer grading of student essays ...
Envision this: A computer tells students that their latest literary concoction doesn't connect ideas logically. At Warren Central High School, in Indianapolis, English teacher Kathy Paris doesn't have to imagine. She uses Criterion, a Web service that scores essays and shoots feedback out to students within seconds.

Quote: "In one test, both the Intelligent Essay Assessor and faculty members graded essays from 500 psychology students at CU-Boulder. "The correlation between the two scores was very high -- it was the same correlation as if two humans were reading them," Landauer said."

Never send a machine to do a man's job !
I dont know how the computer can analyse and give marks without human intervention.
