Artificial Intelligence and Assessment in Early Mathematics

Abstract

This paper delves into the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in assessing early math skills, showcasing how AI technology is reshaping educational assessment practices. AI provides dynamic tools for individualized learning experiences, offering real-time feedback and adaptive assessments that uncover learning gaps more precisely than traditional methods. We will explore how AI-powered assessments assist educators by providing detailed insights into student progress, pinpointing areas for targeted intervention, and enhancing the development of foundational math competencies in young learners. Additionally, we present case studies and real-world examples that demonstrate how AI is currently being utilized in early math education, emphasizing its capacity to revolutionize the evaluation and support of early mathematical learning. By integrating AI, we can create more responsive, data-driven approaches that foster both student engagement and academic growth in early childhood education. The study offers a forward-looking perspective on how AI could shape the future of math assessments, helping to better address individual learning needs and improve educational outcomes.
