Summary
Cord Hockemeyer is a researcher and project manager with deep expertise in Knowledge Space Theory and its competence-oriented extension, applying psychological models to personalised, web-based and game/simulation-enhanced learning since the early 1990s. Based at the University of Graz, he combines long-standing academic research on adaptive assessment algorithms with hands-on management of EC-funded TEL projects and related ICT infrastructure, including server and student administration. He has a rare blend of computer science training (Dipl.-Inform.) and cognitive psychology insight, enabling practical deployments of complex assessment models in real educational technologies. Known for shepherding multi-partner EU projects like 80Days and GRAPPLE, he excels at turning theoretical advances into usable learning systems and scalable project outcomes. An often-overlooked strength is his continuous involvement across research, admin and ops, which keeps experimental systems sustainable beyond prototyping.
