Hardcover. Advancing Natural Language Processing in Educational Assessment examines the use of natural language technology in educational testing, measurement, and assessment.

This first-of-its-kind book provides evidence-based practices for the use of NLP-based approaches to automated text and speech scoring, language proficiency assessment, technology-assisted item generation, gamification, learner feedback, and beyond. Spanning historical context, validity and fairness issues, emerging technologies, and implications for feedback and personalization, these chapters represent the most robust treatment yet about NLP for education measurement researchers, psychometricians, testing professionals, and policymakers.The Open Access version of this book, available at , has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.
