Computer-based Diagnostics and Systematic Analysis of Knowledge: Critical Reflections and Advancements (Advances in Analytics for Learning and Teaching)

Product description From the Back Cover This volume explores the rapidly advancing field of technology-supported knowledge assessment. Across academia, research on learning and instruction, AI-based analysis, psychology, and education, there is a pressing need for a comprehensive collection of foundations and methodologies related to knowledge. While the market offers books on individual and locally developed methods, a holistic overview is currently lacking. It aims to fill that gap, inspiring projects globally and benefiting knowledge-intensive developments in both digital and traditional learning environments. Understanding the state and processes of knowledge often poses a bottleneck in the quality of designs and implementations. This book addresses this challenge by focusing on mostly automated, easy-to-implement strategies, supporting the crucial task of understanding knowledge. About the Author Pablo Pirnay-Dummer is Professor of Educational Psychology at Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg, Germany. His research interests are the processes of language in learning, computer-linguistic methods for the psychological identification of knowledge in text, modelling and comparison of knowledge domains, expertise and complex problem-solving in processes of learning and instruction.Dirk Ifenthaler is Professor and Chair of Learning, Design and Technology at the University of Mannheim, Germany and UNESCO Co-Chair on Data Science in Higher Education Learning and Teaching at Curtin University, Australia. Dirk’s research focuses on the intersection of cognitive psychology, educational technology, data analytics, and organizational learning.
