Artificial Intelligence Methods in Early Childhood Education

Educational technology constitutes an important aspect in modern education providing unique learning experiences to students and improving their learning. Technological resources (especially computers) have been integrated in education for decades. However, integration of educational technology in early childhood education is a more recent trend compared to the other levels of education. This f...

Web Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence in Education

This paper surveys important aspects of Web Intelligence (WI) in the context of Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED) research. WI explores the fundamental roles as well as practical impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced Information Technology (IT) on the next generation of Web-related products, systems, services, and activities. As a direction for scientific research and d...

Artificial Intelligence and Education

Governments and institutions are facing the new demands of a rapidly changing society. Among many significant trends, some facts should be considered (Silverstein, 2006): (1) the increment of number and type of students; and (2) the limitations imposed by educational costs and course schedules. About the former, the need of a continuous update of knowledge and competences in an evolving work en...

Bayesian Methods in Artificial Intelligence

In many problems in the area of artificial intelligence, it is necessary to deal with uncertainty. Using probabilistic models can also improve efficiency of standard AI-based techniques. Commonly used methods for dealing with uncertainty include Bayesian models, which can be used to describe and work with probabilistic systems effectively. This article reviews several models based on the Bayesi...
