Successful computer-based assessments for learning greatly rely on an effective learner modeling approach to analyze learner data and evaluate learner behaviors. In addition to explicit learning performance (i.e., product data), the process data logged by computer-based assessments provide a treasure trove of information about how learners solve…

Algorithmic decision-making systems such as Learning Analytics (LA) are widely used in an educational setting ranging from kindergarten to university. Most research focuses on how LA is used and adopted by teachers. However, the perspective of students and parents who experience the (in)direct consequences of these systems is underexplored. This…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of predictive video analytics in online courses in the literature. A systematic literature review was performed based on a hybrid search strategy that included both database searching and backward snowballing. In total, 77 related publications published between 2011 and April 2023 were…

Background: University students need to self-regulate but are sometimes incapable of doing so. Learning Analytics Dashboards (LADs) can support students' appraisal of study behaviour, from which goals can be set and performed. However, it is unclear how goal-setting and self-motivation within self-regulated learning elicits behaviour when using an…

The growing use of analytics has increased the demand for more highly data literate graduates. Awareness of ambiguity in data has been suggested as a new data literacy skill. Here, we describe a student-centered semester-long project that can be used to teach this skill in an introductory analytics or database course. The project requires students…

Game-based learning (GBL) is increasingly recognized as an effective tool for teaching diverse skills, particularly in science education, due to its interactive, engaging, and motivational qualities, along with timely assessments and intelligent feedback. However, more empirical studies are needed to facilitate its wider application in school…

In online education, it is widely recognized that interaction and engagement have an impact on students' academic performance. While previous research has extensively explored interactions between students, instructors, and content, there has been limited exploration of course design elements that promote the fourth type of interaction:…

Predicting academic performance for students majoring in computer science has long been a significant field of research in computing education. Previous studies described that accurate prediction of students' early-stage performance could identify low-performing students and take corrective action to improve performance. Besides, adopting machine…

This study investigated the effectiveness of blended instruction in enhancing student success in an advanced undergraduate engineering course. The research used learning analytics captured from pre-recorded lecture videos, course grade data, and student surveys. Results revealed positive correlations between lecture video viewership and course…

Developing tools to support students, educators, intuitions, and government in the educational environment has become an important task to improve the quality of education and learning outcomes. Information and communication technology (ICT) is adopted by educational institutions; one such instance is video interaction in flipped teaching.…

Word frequency has a long history of being considered the most important predictor of word difficulty and has served as a guideline for several aspects of second language vocabulary teaching, learning, and assessment. However, recent empirical research has challenged the supremacy of frequency as a predictor of word difficulty. Accordingly,…
