Intelligent and Adaptive Educational-Learning Systems: Achievements and Trends

by Alejandro Peña-Ayala (Editor)

Overview

The Smart Innovation, Systems and Technologies book series encompasses the topics of knowledge, intelligence, innovation and sustainability. The aim of the series is to make available a platform for the publication of books on all aspects of single and multi-disciplinary research on these themes in order to make the latest results available in a readily-accessible form.

This book is devoted to the “Intelligent and Adaptive Educational-Learning Systems”. It privileges works that highlight key achievements and outline trends to inspire future research. After a rigorous revision process twenty manuscripts were accepted and organized into four parts: Modeling, Content, Virtuality and Applications.

This volume is of interest to researchers, practitioners, professors and postgraduate students aimed to update their knowledge and find out targets for future work in the field of artificial intelligence on education.

Editorial Reviews

From the reviews:

“This book is a collection of 20 papers on intelligent and adaptive educational learning systems (ELSs) research, defined here as educational services for learning and teaching using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. … The book can be seen as a snapshot of recent work in this area; this is its main merit.” (Rosa Michaelson, ACM Computing Reviews, December, 2012)
