A Knowledge Map-Centric Feedback-Based Approach to Information Modeling and Academic Assessment
The structure of education has changed dramatically in the last few decades. Despite major changes in how students are learning, there has not been as dramatic of a shift in how student learning is assessed. Standard letter grades are still the paradigm for evaluating a student's mastery of course …
