Computer-Based Diagnostics and Systematic Analysis of Knowledge: Critical Reflections and Advancements (Advances in Analytics for Learning and Teaching)
by Dirk Ifenthaler Pablo Pirnay-DummerThis volume explores the rapidly advancing field of technology-supported knowledge assessment. Across academia, research on learning and instruction, AI-based analysis, psychology, and education, there is a pressing need for a comprehensive collection of foundations and methodologies related to knowledge. While the market offers books on individual and locally developed methods, a holistic overview is currently lacking. It aims to fill that gap, inspiring projects globally and benefiting knowledge-intensive developments in both digital and traditional learning environments. Understanding the state and processes of knowledge often poses a bottleneck in the quality of designs and implementations. This book addresses this challenge by focusing on mostly automated, easy-to-implement strategies, supporting the crucial task of understanding knowledge.

Confrontation in Academic Communication
by Irena VassilevaThis book examines the argumentation strategies employed by linguists in voicing criticism, looks for explanations for confrontation in academic discourse, and evaluates the positive and/or negative effects it has on international academic communication. Issues such as the role of intertextuality, cross-cultural variations, and the notion of “academic discourse community” are also touched upon. Special attention is paid to the modern developments in contrastive rhetoric studies, as well as to the controversial issue of the use of context-based versus corpus-based methods. The corpus under investigation consists of academic book reviews in English and German with a clearly stated negative character, as well as a series of publications in English interrelated by the fact that they discuss a common group of problems but from two fully confrontative points of view. They illustrate what has been called an “academic war”. Some related theoretical issues are also discussed, including the role of evaluation in academic communication, the relationship between criticism, critique, negative evaluation, and confrontation in academic communication, as well as the importance of culture, discipline culture, and communities of practice. The contrastive discourse analysis demonstrates differences between English and German in terms of the rhetorical strategies employed by review writers to express criticism. The book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of academic communication and rhetorics, as well as teachers in English/German for academic purposes.
Connected Learning: A Machine-Generated Literature Overview
by Henning SchoenenbergerThis book offers a unique, machine-generated overview of the current state of research in Connected Learning, Networked Learning, Digital Badges, Micro-Credentials, and Lifelong Learning. The concept of Connected Learning picks up learners where they are, and that is no longer just the classroom or seminar room. Connected Learning seeks to understand the context of learning and the motivation of learners in order to design a more contemporary and effective learning experience. Central to this is the understanding that Connected Learning is collaborative and takes place in peer-to-peer networks, that it is based on participation, problem orientation and application, and that the more personalised the learning, the more interested learners are.This volume condenses and synthesizes research from a large variety of English-language articles into a concise yet comprehensive overview. Readers will benefit from the selection and synthesis of articles that allow them to get a quick understanding of the research area, while also being able to click through to the original sources to dive deeper into any particular topic. This volume is a key source of information and insight for those interested in the current research, as well as serving as an inspiring starting point for their own research.
