Current Trends in AI-Based Educational Processes—An Overview

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing research area, with immense influence on different areas of modern society and with numerous applications in real-life systems and environments. In this chapter we provide a brief overview of current state-of-the-art of developing intelligent educational systems. Particular attention is paid on the application of artificial intelligence methods in teaching and learning processes. Accordingly, we consider recent works that put light on different roles of AI in developing educational systems. Also, an overview of key educational domains that AI techniques influence, i.e.: adaptive personalization systems and intelligent tutoring systems, assessment and evaluation of students’ outcomes and learning performances, and benefits and challenges of educational data mining and learning analytics in educational processes is presented.
