PEG™ Automated Scoring Writing Assessment
Use PEG automated scoring as a summative or formative writing assessment tool for your school. PEG can be administered for your students as many times as needed and results will be available immediately for review.
PEG system from Dr. Ellis Batten Page and his associates has been an active force in AI scoring, also known as automated essay scoring. PEG is the industry's most researched AI system and has been used to provide over two million scores to students over the past five years. PEG is currently being used by one state as the sole scoring method on the state summative writing assessment, and has been conducted as pilot studies with three other states. In addition, PEG is currently being used in 1,000 schools and 3,000 public libraries as a formative assessment tool. Using advanced, proven statistical techniques, PEG analyzes written prose, calculates more than 300 measures that reflect the intrinsic characteristics of writing (fluency, diction, grammar, construction, etc.), and achieves results that are comparable to the human scorers in terms of reliability and validity.
