ElAtia, Samira; Ipperciel, Donald; Zaiane, Osmar; Bakhshinategh, Behdad; Thibaudeau, Patrick – International Journal of Information and Learning Technology, 2021
Purpose: In this paper, the challenging and thorny issue of assessing graduate attributes (GAs) is addressed. An interdisciplinary team at The University of Alberta -- developed a formative model of assessment centered on students and instructor interaction with course content. Design/methodology/approach: The paper starts by laying the…

Sabitha, A. Sai; Mehrotra, Deepti; Bansal, Abhay – Education and Information Technologies, 2017
Currently the challenges in e-Learning are converging the learning content from various sources and managing them within e-learning practices. Data mining learning algorithms can be used and the contents can be converged based on the Metadata of the objects. Ensemble methods use multiple learning algorithms and it can be used to converge the…

Conrad, Colin; Bliemel, Michael; Ali-Hassan, Hossam – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2019
The expansion of technical concepts into everyday business practices suggests a need for effectively teaching difficult subjects to non-technical users. This paper describes hands-on analogy, an innovative method for teaching technically difficult concepts using interactive, experiential learning activities and a gamified exercise. We demonstrate…

Conijn, Rianne; Snijders, Chris; Kleingeld, Ad; Matzat, Uwe – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2017
With the adoption of Learning Management Systems (LMSs) in educational institutions, a lot of data has become available describing students' online behavior. Many researchers have used these data to predict student performance. This has led to a rather diverse set of findings, possibly related to the diversity in courses and predictor variables…

Chen, L. T.; And Others – Information Systems, 1995
This paper addresses the problem of data management techniques for efficiently retrieving requested subsets of large data sets from mass storage devices. Describes the development of algorithms and software that facilitate the partitioning of a large data set into multiple "clusters" that reflect their expected access. (Author/JKP)

Haight, Mike; Martin, Ron – 1975
The NCHEMS Costing and Data Management System is designed to assist institutions in the implementation of cost studies. There are at least two kinds of cost studies: historical cost studies which display cost-related data that reflect actual events over a specific prior time period, and predictive cost studies which forecast costs that will be…

Nishimoto, Hideki; Ura, Shoji – Information Processing and Management, 1989
Describes an interface mechanism called "complex view support" to be used with a relational database system (RDBS) in supporting increasingly complex distributed environments in automated library systems. The interface system refers queries to multidimensional tables as well as to flat tables on RDBS and is shown to efficiently support…
