Artificial Intelligence in Measurement and Education Conference (AIME–Con) 

Innovation and Evidence: Shaping the Future of AI in Educational Measurement

Quick Information 

Conference Purpose and Description 

The Artificial Intelligence in Measurement and Education Conference (AIME–Con) is a premier gathering designed to bring together an interdisciplinary community of experts working at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), educational measurement, assessment, natural language processing, learning analytics, and technological development. As AI continues to transform education and assessment practices, this conference will provide a critical platform for fostering cross-disciplinary dialogue, sharing cutting-edge research, and exploring the technical, ethical, and practical implications of AI-driven innovations in measurement and education.

A key objective of the AIME–Con is to facilitate learning and collaboration across diverse fields. The rapid integration of AI in educational tools has created a pressing need for experts across a wide range of fields to engage in meaningful discussions about best practices, challenges, and opportunities in AI-enhanced assessment and instruction. Attendees will gain insights into the application of AI in such areas as:

• Formative feedback and personalized learning
• AI-driven scoring and item generation
• Explainability and transparency in AI-based measurement
• Ethical considerations such as data privacy and bias mitigation
• The role of AI in shaping educational policies and best practices

By bringing together experts from these varied domains, the conference will foster a rich exchange of knowledge that enhances the collective understanding of AI’s impact on educational measurement and evaluation.

The AIME–Con offers educational measurement professionals and researchers an opportunity to deepen their knowledge of AI applications and stay at the forefront of emerging methodologies in education, assessment, and measurement. Data scientists, NLP and AI researchers and developers will gain valuable insights into creating responsible and effective AI-driven tools that support teaching and learning. State and local education policymakers will gain knowledge to make informed decisions about AI adoption in schools and assessment programs. Educators and instructional designers will discover how AI can enhance personalized learning and formative assessment practices while maintaining ethical and pedagogical integrity.

In addition to an engaging lineup of keynote speakers, paper and poster presentations, coordinated sessions and panels, and hands-on training sessions, the conference will offer both formal and informal networking opportunities. Attendees can connect and collaborate during interdisciplinary sessions and an evening poster session with food and drinks to provide a relaxed environment for discussion and idea exchange. Additionally, the exhibitor hall will feature industry leaders showcasing the latest AI-driven educational technologies. These opportunities will enable participants to build meaningful professional relationships and explore new collaborations that extend beyond the conference. 
By creating a dynamic space for knowledge sharing and networking, the AIME–Con aims to drive innovation and shape the future of AI in educational measurement and assessment.

Conference Theme

Innovation and Evidence: Shaping the Future of AI in Educational Measurement

The AIME–Con will focus on how rigorous measurement standards and innovative AI applications can work together to transform education. With sessions spanning summative large-scale assessment, formative classroom assessment, automated feedback, and informal learning tools, this conference is dedicated to fostering both the advancement and responsible evaluation of AI in education. By gathering a diverse community of experts in AI, measurement, and education research and policy, we aim to encourage forward-thinking development of AI technologies that are effective, reliable, and fair. Together, we are building a collaborative space where innovation and evidence meet to enhance educational outcomes and shape the future of both educational measurement and measurement- and assessment-focused AI.

Call for Papers and Posters

The AIME–Con invites submissions for papers and posters that advance the understanding, application, and ethical considerations of AI in educational measurement and assessment. Papers will be presented on October 28 and 29; posters will be presented in the evening of October 28. We seek contributions from researchers, practitioners, and policymakers across disciplines—including AI and machine learning, psychometrics, natural language processing, educational technology, and learning analytics—to foster a truly interdisciplinary dialogue. Submissions should align with the conference theme and address relevant topics such as:

• AI-based tools for educational decision-making and policymaking
• Advancements in AI methodologies 
• AI-driven scoring systems and their validity
• AI for formative feedback and personalized learning
• AI-generated assessment items and explainability in automated measurement
• Ethical considerations, including data privacy, bias mitigation, and fairness in AI-driven assessment
• AI’s role in large-scale assessment, classroom-based measurement, and instructional support
• Transparency and accountability in AI-powered assessment solutions

We welcome empirical research, explanations of methodological innovations, theoretical explorations, and case studies that provide actionable insights and innovative approaches to AI in measurement and education. Papers and posters should contribute to the growing body of evidence that informs the responsible development and implementation of AI-driven educational tools.

Accepted papers will be presented in thematic sessions, allowing for in-depth discussion and cross-disciplinary engagement. Poster presentations will offer an interactive setting for networking and idea exchange, with an evening session designed to facilitate discussion over food and drinks.

Call for Training Sessions

The AIME–Con invites proposals for half-day, hands-on training sessions to be held in the afternoon on October 27. These training sessions should align with the conference’s theme and focus on equipping participants with the tools and frameworks necessary to navigate the evolving AI landscape.
We welcome training proposals on topics such as:

• Fundamentals of AI and machine learning for education professionals
• A Developer’s Guide to Learning and Assessment
• AI-driven assessment design and evaluation techniques
• Bias mitigation, fairness, and ethical considerations in AI applications
• Natural language processing and AI-based feedback systems
• Data privacy, security, and transparency in AI-driven educational tools
• AI applications for formative and large-scale assessment
• Best practices for integrating AI into educational policy and decision-making

Training sessions should be interactive and designed for varying levels of expertise, from introductory overviews to advanced technical workshops. Proposals should clearly outline learning objectives, intended audience, instructional approach, and any required materials or software.
Accepted training sessions will provide valuable hands-on learning experiences, ensuring that participants leave with actionable skills and deeper insights into AI-driven educational measurement.
