The…

A critical limiting factor for adaptive teaching is the availability of diagnostic tools that allow reliable and valid assessments of students' domain-specific skills in a way that produces detailed information for planning subsequent instructional strategies. The present study demonstrates how Cognitive Diagnosis Models (CDM) can deliver…
