Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid evolution of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) has opened up transformative possibilities in the field of educational assessment and this Special Issue focuses on the innovative applications of GAI across the three critical dimensions of assessment: assessment of learning, assessment for learning, and assessment as learning. By bridging technology and pedagogy, this Special Issue aims to explore how GAI can enhance assessment practices, empower learners, and redefine educational standards.
Contributions to this Special Issue will examine the role of GAI in creating adaptive and personalized assessment tools, enabling real-time feedback mechanisms, and fostering self-regulated learning. Topics may include, but are not limited to, AI-driven rubrics for evaluating student work, the role of AI in formative assessments, AI-powered simulations for experiential learning, and ethical considerations in deploying such technologies. The Special Issue will also investigate the potential of GAI to promote equity and inclusivity in education by addressing diverse learner needs.
Through empirical studies, theoretical explorations, and case studies, this Special Issue seeks to engage educators, researchers, and technologists in a dialogue about how GAI can shape the future of assessment. In so doing, it aims to contribute to the development of equitable, innovative, and impactful educational practices in the age of AI.
