Yunus Kökver; Hüseyin Miraç Pektas; Harun Çelik – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
This study aims to determine the misconceptions of teacher candidates about the greenhouse effect concept by using Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm instead of human experts. The Knowledge Discovery from Data (KDD) process model was preferred in the study where the Analyse, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate (ADDIE) instructional design…

Zhang, Ruofei; Zou, Di; Cheng, Gary – Innovation in Language Learning and Teaching, 2023
EFL learners generally have the problem of logical fallacies in EFL argumentative writings. Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that can undermine EFL argumentative writing quality. Explicit training on logical fallacies may help learners deal with the problem and enhance their self-efficacy and proficiency in EFL argumentative writing,…

Kolb, John; Farrar, Scott; Pardos, Zachary A. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Misconceptions have been an important area of study in STEM education towards improving our understanding of learners' construction of knowledge. The advent of largescale tutoring systems has given rise to an abundance of data in the form of learner question-answer logs in which signatures of misconceptions can be mined. In this work, we explore…

Kortemeyer, Gerd – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
Massive pretrained language models have garnered attention and controversy due to their ability to generate humanlike responses: Attention due to their frequent indistinguishability from human-generated phraseology and narratives and controversy due to the fact that their convincingly presented arguments and facts are frequently simply false. Just…

Michalenko, Joshua J.; Lan, Andrew S.; Waters, Andrew E.; Grimaldi, Philip J.; Baraniuk, Richard G. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
An important, yet largely unstudied problem in student data analysis is to detect "misconceptions" from students' responses to "open-response" questions. Misconception detection enables instructors to deliver more targeted feedback on the misconceptions exhibited by many students in their class, thus improving the quality of…

Muzheve, Michael T.; Capraro, Robert M. – Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 2012
Using qualitative data collection and analyses techniques, we examined mathematical representations used by sixteen (N=16) teachers while teaching the concepts of converting among fractions, decimals, and percents. We also studied representational choices by their students (N=581). In addition to using geometric figures and manipulatives, teachers…
