Generation of Multiple Choice Questions Including Panoramic Information using Linked Data

In recent years, just about all subjects require students to learn panoramic information. Because the need exists for cross-curriculum learning aimed at relating subject areas, it is useful for multiple-choice questions to include panoramic information for learners. A question including panoramic information refers to content that includes transverse related information and makes respondents grasp the whole knowledge. However, it is costly to manually generate and collect appropriate multiple-choice questions for questioners and learners. Therefore, in this research, we propose a method for the automatic generation of multiple-choice questions including panoramic information using Linked Data. Linked Data is graphical data that can link structured data, and it is used as a technology for data integration and utilization. Some attempts have been made to use Linked Data as a resource for creating teaching material, and the possibility of using Semantic Web technology in education has been verified. In this paper, we aim to realize a system for automatically generating two types of multiple-choice questions by implementing an approach to generating questions and choices. An evaluation method for the generation of questions and choices involves setting indicators for each evaluation item, such as validity and the degree of the inclusion of panoramic information.
