Maher, Nicole; Chick, Helen; Muir, Tracey – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2021
Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) is a powerful construct for examining the complexity of teacher knowledge. Together with teachers' moment-by-moment choices of action, it provides insight into teachers' knowledge and its influence on student learning. This paper investigates the PCK experienced by a senior secondary mathematics class during a…

Cook, Joshua; Lynch, Collin F.; Hicks, Andrew G.; Mostafavi, Behrooz – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
BKT and other classical student models are designed for binary environments where actions are either correct or incorrect. These models face limitations in open-ended and data-driven environments where actions may be correct but non-ideal or where there may even be degrees of error. In this paper we present BKT-SR and RKT-SR: extensions of the…

Chu, Wei; Pavlik, Philip I., Jr. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
In adaptive learning systems, various models are employed to obtain the optimal learning schedule and review for a specific learner. Models of learning are used to estimate the learner's current recall probability by incorporating features or predictors proposed by psychological theory or empirically relevant to learners' performance. Logistic…

Weiland, Travis; Mojica, Gemma; Engledowl, Chris; Jones, Ryan Seth – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
The goal of the proposed working group is to create a space for those interested in researching issues around the teaching and learning of statistics to meet, discuss, synthesize past research, and begin to strategize ways of leveraging multiple perspectives and expertise to identify and address current challenges in statistics education. The…

Streeter, Matthew – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
We show that student learning can be accurately modeled using a mixture of learning curves, each of which specifies error probability as a function of time. This approach generalizes Knowledge Tracing [7], which can be viewed as a mixture model in which the learning curves are step functions. We show that this generality yields order-of-magnitude…

MacLellan, Christopher J.; Liu, Ran; Koedinger, Kenneth R. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Additive Factors Model (AFM) and Performance Factors Analysis (PFA) are two popular models of student learning that employ logistic regression to estimate parameters and predict performance. This is in contrast to Bayesian Knowledge Tracing (BKT) which uses a Hidden Markov Model formalism. While all three models tend to make similar predictions,…

English, Lyn; Watson, Jane – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2014
Students explored variation and expectation in a probability activity at the end of the first year of a 3-year longitudinal study across grades 4-6. The activity involved experiments in tossing coins both manually and with simulation using the graphing software, "TinkerPlots." Initial responses indicated that the students were aware of…

Agnoli, Franca; Krantz, David H. – Cognitive Psychology, 1989
Two experiments, with 300 adult women as subjects, studied the effects of laboratory training on the use of the Conjunction Rule, a principle of probability that is often violated. Learning alternative strategies enabled trained subjects to use extensional reasoning rather than intensional heuristics. (SLD)

Williams, J. S.; Amir, G. S. – 1995
This study sought to determine: (1) what children understand about "chance" when they begin secondary school?; and (2) how common and how influential the use of informal heuristics, approaches, and biases is in their thinking about probability in the school context. Children's understanding of chance, attributions of events to…

Freedle, Roy – 1973
Elusive developmental processes are most often examined in the context of the philosophic problem of scientific determinism. The Markov process model, enhancing a probabilistic viewpoint for the explanation of developmental data, should be restricted. Attention should be focused on the immediate context and situational setting of a subject. The…
