About this ebook

This book systematically reviews a broad range of cases in education that utilize cutting-edge AI technologies. Furthermore, it introduces readers to the latest findings on the scope of AI in education, so as to inspire researchers from non-technological fields (e.g. education, psychology and neuroscience) to solve education problems using the latest AI techniques. It also showcases a number of established AI systems and products that have been employed for education. Lastly, the book discusses how AI can offer an enabling technology for critical aspects of education, typically including the learner, content, strategy, tools and environment, and what breakthroughs and advances the future holds.
The book provides an essential resource for researchers, students and industrial practitioners interested and engaged in the fields of AI and education. It also offers a convenient handbook for non-professional readers who need a primer on AI in education, and who want to gain a deeper understanding of emerging trends in this domain.
