The Role of AI in Assessment: Revolutionizing Education examines how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the evaluation of learning and addresses the urgent need for innovative assessment methodologies. It analyzes both the opportunities and the constraints of AI-driven assessment, responding to the growing demand for approaches that harness AI capabilities rigorously and responsibly.
Adopting an interdisciplinary perspective, this book introduces foundational AI concepts, including reinforcement learning, neural networks, deep learning, and large language models, and makes these complex topics accessible to educators, researchers, and policymakers. Chapters on ethics, equity, and personalized learning provide a systematic treatment of AI’s implications for educational measurement and accountability.
With a practical and forward-looking orientation, this volume explores applications such as automatic item generation, automated essay scoring, game-based assessment, and test security. Case studies illustrate implementation strategies and provide guidance for integrating AI into contemporary assessment systems.
This resource is designed for educators, researchers, psychometricians, administrators, and policymakers seeking to design, evaluate, and govern AI-enabled assessment frameworks. It is also well suited for graduate courses in educational technology, assessment, data science in education, and AI ethics.
‘This volume offers a strong and diverse collection of chapters on the possibilities of AI in educational assessment. Its impressive breadth addresses many critical issues in this emerging field and highlights promising directions for leveraging AI to advance personalized, adaptive, and scalable assessment.’
Jeff Douglas, University of Illinois
‘This is an exciting and timely book that summarizes contemporary perspectives on the use of AI in assessment. It is safe to say it is a “revolution” – it remains to be seen if AI is an angel of salvation or a temptress and deluder. This book contributes in a meaningful way to discussions of the application of AI in educational assessment.’
George Engelhard, Jr., The University of Georgia
‘Speaking as a psychometrician, this is the book I’ve been waiting for! AI is clearly a critical part of the future of educational assessment. Many important issues are addressed in the book’s chapters, including equity, validity and test security, making it a comprehensive resource for many audiences in the field.’
Charles Lewis, Fordham University
‘Rarely is a book more perfectly timed for publication than this one. The winds of change stirred by developments in AI bring great opportunities to educational assessment but also potential risks. Readers of this volume will be better equipped to navigate the challenges posed by AI and make the most of its possibilities.’
