In this article, we describe a software system for assessment development in online learning environments in contexts where there are robust links to cognitive modelling including domain and student modelling. BEAR Assessment System Software (BASS) establishes both a theoretical basis for the domain modelling logic, and offers tools for delivery,…

Authoring tools have been broadly used to design Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). However, ITS community still lacks a current understanding of how authoring tools are used by non-programmer authors to design ITS. Hence, the objective of this work is to review how authoring tools have been supporting ITS design for non-programmer authors. In…

In this exploratory case study, the researchers conducted a descriptive, qualitative microanalysis of the tutoring of two eighth grade students with learning disabilities while solving algebra problems. The researchers analyzed the participants' problem solving tendencies and interventions that helped the students succeed. One of the students,…

The production of knowledge is an essential element in graduate schools and it is considered that this process is very advanced when the student completes and defends his research thesis. However, a number of students fails to develop research skills and complete their thesis. The objective of this proposal is to specify the roles and competencies…

Knowledge work has become a major component of value creation, especially in industrialized countries. Processing knowledge in virtual ways becomes increasingly possible with emerging technological innovations. This leads to the important question, how to transmit elusive tacit knowledge in a virtual setting. Education at universities benefits…

Students in one-on-one tutoring learn best when tutors elicit their constructive responses to scaffold them. Tutors' non-eliciting explanations, in contrast, seem to be less beneficial for learning. Usually, tutors use less eliciting strategies than would be optimal. They, however, seem to use more eliciting in procedural domains (e.g.,…

Little studies have been conducted on the question of the use of augmented reality technology in the education field. The effects of augmented reality technology on the educational environment of tertiary students need to be further explored. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of augmented reality technology in…

We used the Hierarchical Linear Bernoulli Model based on China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) 2016 data and provincial high school acceptance rate data. We explored the relationship between provincial high school entrance examination competition and students' extracurricular tutoring participation during compulsory education. The study found that the…

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a peer tutoring system shown to increase course grades and reduce dropout, particularly for courses with significant failure/dropout rates. Unfortunately, such systems can place significant time and resource demands on faculty, SI personnel, and higher education institutions, all of which pose impediments to their…

Smart learning environments (SLE) provide students with opportunities to interact with learning resources and activities in ways that are customised to their particular learning goals and approaches. A challenge in developing SLEs is providing resources and tasks within a single system that can seamlessly tailor learning experience in terms of…

This article aims to interrogate the Cartesian rationality determining current early childhood mathematics by highlighting the irrational aspect of mathematics learning, which is usually underemphasized and even devalued by the dominant discourse. Using Deleuze and Guattari's concept of refrain as the method, the article explores the unfolding…

The assessment of program functionality can generally be accomplished with straight-forward unit tests. However, assessing the design quality of a program is a much more difficult and nuanced problem. Design quality is an important consideration since it affects the readability and maintainability of programs. Assessing design quality and giving…

Achieving the Dream (ATD) is one of 12 higher education and digital learning organizations that make up the Every Learner Everywhere (Every Learner) Network, whose mission is to help higher education institutions improve and ensure more equitable student outcomes through advances in digital learning, particularly among poverty-impacted, racially…

These polls were conducted between May 9-11, 2025, June 5-7, 2025, and July 10-13, 2025, among a sample of 2,257, 2,251, and 2,251 adults, respectively. The interviews were conducted online and the data were weighted to approximate a target sample of Adults based on gender, educational attainment, age, race, and region. Results based on the full…

Artificial intelligence is the driving force of change focusing on the needs and demands of the student. The research explores Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIEd) for building personalised learning systems for students. The research investigates and proposes a framework for AIEd: social networking sites and chatbots, expert systems for…
