Knowledge tracing is a well-known problem in AI for education, consisting of monitoring how the knowledge state of students changes during the learning process and accurately predicting their performance in future exercises. In recent years, many advances have been made thanks to various machine learning and deep learning techniques. Despite their…

Automatic grading of short answers is an important task in computer-assisted assessment (CAA). Recently, embeddings, as semantic-rich textual representations, have been increasingly used to represent short answers and predict the grade. Despite the recent trend of applying embeddings in automatic short answer grading (ASAG), there are no…

Learning paths are curated sequences of resources organized in a way that a learner has all the prerequisite knowledge needed to achieve their learning goals. In this article, we systematically map the techniques and algorithms that are needed to create such learning paths automatically. We focus on open educational resources (OER), though a…

Properly predicting students' academic performance is crucial for elevating educational outcomes in various disciplines. Through precise performance prediction, schools can quickly pinpoint students facing challenges and provide customized educational materials suited to their specific learning needs. The reliance on teachers' experience to…

Entrepreneurship education is critical in encouraging students' innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit. It provides essential skills and knowledge, enabling them to open their creative potential and apply innovative thinking across diverse professional fields. With the widespread application of large language models in education,…

The application of the collective intelligence (CI) concept has yielded significant results in many knowledge areas and it has substantial potential to yield results in the educational context. In view of distance education and online educational technologies, the use of CI has enormous potential to improve collaboration, social learning, and…
