Shabrina, Preya; Mostafavi, Behrooz; Tithi, Sutapa Dey; Chi, Min; Barnes, Tiffany – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
Problem decomposition into sub-problems or subgoals and recomposition of the solutions to the subgoals into one complete solution is a common strategy to reduce difficulties in structured problem solving. In this study, we use a datadriven graph-mining-based method to decompose historical student solutions of logic-proof problems into Chunks. We…

Zhi, Rui; Marwan, Samiha; Dong, Yihuan; Lytle, Nicholas; Price, Thomas W.; Barnes, Tiffany – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Viewing worked examples before problem solving has been shown to improve learning efficiency in novice programming. Example-based feedback seeks to present smaller, adaptive worked example steps during problem solving. We present a method for automatically generating and selecting adaptive, example-based programming feedback using historical…

Mostafavi, Behrooz; Barnes, Tiffany – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2017
Deductive logic is essential to a complete understanding of computer science concepts, and is thus fundamental to computer science education. Intelligent tutoring systems with individualized instruction have been shown to increase learning gains. We seek to improve the way deductive logic is taught in computer science by developing an intelligent,…
