Keyword(s): Web Scraping, Natural Language Processing, Question Generation, Distractor Generation.

Abstract: In this work, we introduce a novel pipeline that enables the generation of multiple-choice questions and exercises from as little as a topic keyword. Hence, providing users the possibility to start with a study objective in mind and then automatically generate personalized learning material. The main contributions of this project are a scraper that can extract relevant information from websites, a novel distractor generation method that can make use of context and a technique to automatically combine text and questions into interactive exercises. Our novel distractor generation method was tested in a human survey which showed that the distractor generation quality is comparable to hand crafted distractors. The pipeline is built into a web application that lets users refine the results for each step, openly accessible at https://adaptive-teaching.com.
