Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for automatic evaluation of argument critique essays written by young students in response to prompts. A transformer pre-trained for natural language processing is employed as a machine learning model, which is fine-tune with a first training dataset comprising unannotated argument critique essays written by college students, and then fine-tuned with a second training dataset comprising annotated argument critique essays written by middle school students, where each sentence in the second training dataset is annotated for the presence of valid critiques to prompts. The fine-tuned machine learning model is used to classify each sentence in an essay to be evaluated as either containing a valid critique or not.
