Abstract

In the two preceding chapters, we have described assessment procedures for uncovering the knowledge state of a student in a scholarly topic. Such a knowledge state is one among possibly many states forming a knowledge structure for the topic. We now turn to the problem of building a knowledge structure in practice. In this chapter, we deal with the case of knowledge spaces, that is, union-closed knowledge structures. Methods for building learning spaces are considered in Chapter 16. They are based in part on the techniques of this chapter, which is sensible because learning spaces are particular knowledge spaces (cf. Theorem 2.2.4).
