Artificial Intelligence based assessment and development of student’s Non-cognitive skills in Professional Education through an online Learning Management System

Abstract

Professional education programs like Engineering, Medical, Legal, Management basically process to transform the raw student into a polished professional of the respective domain. Hence the holistic development of students in both the cognitive and non-cognitive aspects is the aim of the processes. The educational objective is very well defined in such programs which are mapped to students outcome at a graduating level. There are various assessment tools to capture student’s development in terms of skills and knowledge which covers the cognitive aspect but these tools miss out on the non-cognitive part of total assessment and development too. Most of the professional institutes have their online Learning management system (LMS) to harness various teachinglearning-assessment activities of the education process. LMS provides a common platform for various stockholders like faculty, student, parents, and policymakers. The paper focused on artificial intelligence based on various approaches for LMS so that it can be effective and efficient for the holistic development of the students. In this paper section 1: give detail background about non-cognitive skill requirements in the professional education program as per literature review by researchers. Section 2: take through various outcomes that get affected due to Non-cognitive skill as per international studies. Section 3: discuss various techniques or instruments which are used to measure Non-cognitive skills. Section 4: it is about the role of the Artificial Intelligence system in the Learning Management aspect. Finally in section 5: researchers propose three different approaches using AI to enhance LMS for holistic assessment and development of students.
