This timely and thought-provoking book explores how artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technologies more generally are reshaping educational assessment in the field of mathematics. It brings together a rich collection of international perspectives that offer a diverse and critical examination of the opportunities and challenges that digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, play in assessment.The chapters span a broad range of topics including the transition to a digital assessment format, designing multiple-choice items, and the use of AI for automated diagnosis, example generation, and feedback provision. The book includes a framing chapter that critically examines current trends in the field and offers key recommendations for rethinking assessment. It calls for more empirical research and a fundamental rethink of assessment practices in light of digital technologies and AI. The volume as a whole also invites readers to engage in a broader conversation about the future of educational assessment and the role of digital technologies in transforming assessment in mathematics education.This essential resource for educators, researchers, curriculum developers, policymakers, and assessment stakeholders offers a comprehensive look at the evolving international landscape of assessment in mathematics education in the digital era. It also highlights directions for future research and encourages readers to shaping the future of digital technology and artificial intelligence in formative and summative assessment in mathematics education.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

This book focuses on the potential interplay between two distinct, yet related paradigm shifts in mathematics education, drawing on the notion of “networking of theories” through illustrative case studies from the Danish educational system and beyond. The first paradigm shift is the massive introduction of digital technology in the teaching and learning of the subject; the second is a shift from the traditional focusing on mastering of skills and knowledge to being concerned with the possession and development of mathematical competencies.This book builds on the Danish KOM (Competencies and the Learning of Mathematics) project, which sources its description of mathematical mastery primarily on the notion of a “mathematical competency” rather than on lists of topics, concepts, and results. This allows for an overarching framework, which captures the perspectives of mathematics teaching and learning at whichever educational level. While the KOM framework does not in detail address the role of digital technologies in relation to its description of different types of mathematical competencies, etc., the chapters of this book set out to do exactly this, while in the process also drawing on a selection of other theoretical constructs and frameworks from mathematics education research.Starting with introductory chapters by key researchers in the area, the book brings forth chapters for each of the KOM framework’s eight mathematical competencies, authored by Nordic researchers in combination with international scholars. The KOM framework also operates with three types of overview and judgement, which are specifically addressed in relation to the role of digital technologies in the third part of the book. The fourth and final part of the book broadens the scene and provides chapters of a more perspective nature in relation to mathematical competencies in the digital era. The book’s preface is by Susanne Prediger.
