AI for Learning

AI for Learners examines how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can, and should, impact positively on human learning, whether it be in formal or informal educational and training contexts. The book considers the different supporting roles that can help a learner - from AI as a peer to AI as a tutor and AI as an assessor, among other things.
