Development of a Computerized Adaptive Assessment and Learning System for Mathematical Ability Based on Cognitive...

With the rapid evolution of technology and the continuous deepening of digital transformation in education, personalized and adaptive learning have emerged as inevitable trends in the educational landscape. This study focuses on a Computerized Adaptive Learning System Based on Cognitive Diagnosis (CAL-CDS)-an integrated platform that incorporates multiple technologies for assessment and learning. The study is organized around two dimensions: (1) constructing a foundational cognitive diagnostic assessment framework, and (2) investigating the operational mechanisms of the cognitive diagnosis-based computerized adaptive system. It comprehensively incorporates core components including cognitive modeling, Q-matrix generation, and diagnostic test development. On this basis, this study dissects the system's operational logic from four aspects: the adaptive testing system, diagnostic system, recommendation system, and empirical case studies. This study effectively addresses two core questions: how to construct a cognitive diagnostic assessment framework that alignes with China's mathematics knowledge structure, and how to facilitate personalized student learning via cognitive diagnosis. Overall, this study offers a systematic solution for developing mathematics-specific cognitive diagnosis-driven adaptive learning systems.
