AI and Formative Assessment: The Train Has Left the Station

Abstract

The keynote of this structured poster session is to examine the current state of artificial intelligence (AI)-based formative assessment tools and identify future directions for research and practice to support STEM education. This structured poster session assembled ten cutting-edge research reports conducted at twelve institutions across the globe. The papers present how AI-based formative assessment is being realized for open-ended questions, scaffolding, analogy generation, multi-modal assessment, social justice science issues, etc. Researchers will present empirical studies, which are supported by various theoretical perspectives. The session extends our understanding of the interdisciplinary initiative on AI-based formative assessment practices led by global scholars.
