Computer-based Knowledge and Skill Assessment

Hasselt (BE), June 2010 - This special track will take place during the thirteenth International Conference on Interactive Computer-aided Learning (ICL 2010), being held in Hasselt, Belgium from 15 - 17 September. It provides an interdisciplinary forum for international scientists and practitioners to discuss various aspects of computer-based knowledge and skill assessment in learning settings.




ICL 2010 is an interdisciplinary conference focusing on the exchange of relevant trends and research results, as well as the presentation of practical experience in interactive computer-aided learning.

Modern life at the beginning of the 21st century is strongly influenced by rapidly changing and developing information, technology-enhanced communication and information access, and new forms of production and services in a globalized world. This situation requires individuals to adapt their skills and competencies.

The special track brings together international researchers with practitioners from various organisations who will have plenty of time for networking and real-world knowledge sharing.

  • Web 2.0 and assessment and feedback for individual and group learning
  • Automated essay grading
