Synopsis

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.
