natural language processing the text to identify dependencies between text elements in the input text;
with a computer processor, applying grammar rules to generate questions and associated answers from the processed text, at least some of the questions each being based on at least one of the identified dependencies;
automatically posing questions from the generated questions to a reader of the input text;
evaluating comprehension of the reader based on received responses of the reader to the questions posed.
