This edited volume provides a platform for experts from various fields to introduce and discuss their different perspectives on the topic of teamwork and collaborative problem solving. It brings together researchers in organizational teaming, educational collaboration, tutoring, simulation, and gaming as well as those involved in statistical and psychometric process modelling. This book seeks to channel this expertise towards advances in the measurement and assessment of cognitive and non-cognitive skills of individuals and teams. “ The ability to understand the states, traits, and habits of individual learners, collaborative groups, or team is a necessary prerequisite to guiding, adapting, and optimizing instructional experiences. The modeling and assessment of learners interacting with peers, human instructors, or computer-based tutors provides a window into the effectiveness of instructional tools and methods that is needed to continuously improve their learning experiences. Any action taken by the tutor/teacher/instructor without knowledge of those being taught is a shot in the dark. We applaud those who dedicate their lives to helping us solve the hard problems that will turn on the light and allow us to easily tailor learning experiences for every person.” (Robert Sottilare, Ph.D., US Army Research Laboratory, Adaptive Training Scientist).
