Abstract

One of the main goals of the artificial intelligence and education fields as they continue to produce innovative instructional tools is to teach computers to understand and simulate the “reasoning of teachers and the learning of students” and provide a “teacher or community of teachers for every student” (Woolf, 2009). In order to effectively conduct summative, impact evaluations that measure how innovative instructional tools are meeting this goal as well and specific goals associated with tools in an implementation contexts, a field testing evaluation logic and framework has been constructed and used to define the criteria and standards for creating an optimal environment for implementing and measuring student-centered learning and achievement using innovative instructional strategies and tools. The purpose of this session is to provide attendees with this impact evaluation framework using a successful, sample field evaluation as a reference and allow them to create an outline for their own impact evaluation project as they follow along with the presentation.
