Shi, Yang; Chi, Min; Barnes, Tiffany; Price, Thomas W. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Knowledge tracing (KT) models are a popular approach for predicting students' future performance at practice problems using their prior attempts. Though many innovations have been made in KT, most models including the state-of-the-art Deep KT (DKT) mainly leverage each student's response either as correct or incorrect, ignoring its content. In…

Zhi Liu; Huimin Duan; Shiqi Liu; Rui Mu; Sannyuya Liu; Zongkai Yang – Educational Technology & Society, 2024
Conversational agents (CAs) primarily adopt knowledge scaffolding (KS) or emotional scaffolding (ES) to intervene in learners' knowledge gain and emotional experience in online learning. However, the ill-defined design for KS and ES, as well as insufficient understanding of their interactive effects on learning outcomes, have hindered the…

Shmallo, Ronit; Ragonis, Noa – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
The paper presents research that aims to expose students' understanding of the "this" reference in object-oriented programming. The study was conducted with high school students (N = 86) and college engineering students (N = 77). Conceptualization of "this" reflects an understanding of objects in general and involves aspects of…

AERA Online Paper Repository, 2020
Debugging is the most difficult part of programming for novices. Through comparative experiments, this paper compares the differences between novices and the experts in the debugging process from the perspective of the frequency of each debugging skill behavior and the connection of each behavior. The study find that there is a difference in the…

Gwo-Haur Hwang; Beyin Chen; Shih-Pei Chen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
This study proposed a game-based flipped teaching approach and applied it to a HTML (HyperText Markup Language) course. We developed two versions of the pre-class content testing, one of which was game-based, using a "looking-through" game, and the other which was traditional, using a multiple-choice test. We conducted a teaching…

Pakpour, Nazzy; Nouredini, Sahar; Tandon, James – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: Although engineering hackathon events are common, this is one of the first reports of such an event used for the purpose of teaching engineering students about public health concepts. Results from this study suggest that hackathons are an effective format for teaching topics that are not core to the engineering discipline in a short…
