Chopra, Harshita; Lin, Yiwen; Samadi, Mohammad Amin; Cavazos, Jacqueline G.; Yu, Renzhe; Jaquay, Spencer; Nixon, Nia – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
Exploring students' discourse in academic settings over time can provide valuable insight into the evolution of learner engagement and participation in online learning. In this study, we propose an analytical framework to capture topics and the temporal progression of learner discourse. We employed a Contextualized Topic Modeling technique on…

Stone, Cathlyn; Donnelly, Patrick J.; Dale, Meghan; Capello, Sarah; Kelly, Sean; Godley, Amanda; D'Mello, Sidney K. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
We examine the ability of supervised text classification models to identify several discourse properties from teachers' speech with an eye for providing teachers with meaningful automated feedback about the quality of their classroom discourse. We collected audio recordings from 28 teachers from 10 schools in 164 authentic classroom sessions,…

Reilly, Joseph M.; Schneider, Bertrand – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Collaborative problem solving in computer-supported environments is of critical importance to the modern workforce. Coworkers or collaborators must be able to co-create and navigate a shared problem space using discourse and non-verbal cues. Analyzing this discourse can give insights into how consensus is reached and can estimate the depth of…

Crossley, Scott; Ocumpaugh, Jaclyn; Labrum, Matthew; Bradfield, Franklin; Dascalu, Mihai; Baker, Ryan S. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2018
A number of studies have demonstrated strong links between students' language features (as found in spoken and written production) and their math performance. However, no studies have examined links between the students' language features and measures of their Math Identity. This project extends prior studies that use natural language processing…

Riddle, Travis; Bhagavatula, Sowmya Sree; Guo, Weiwei; Muresan, Smaranda; Cohen, Geoff; Cook, Jonathan E.; Purdie-Vaughns, Valerie – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Social identity threat refers to the process through which an individual underperforms in some domain due to their concern with confirming a negative stereotype held about their group. Psychological research has identified this as one contributor to the underperformance and underrepresentation of women, Blacks, and Latinos in STEM fields. Over the…

Crossley, Scott; McNamara, Danielle S.; Baker, Ryan; Wang, Yuan; Paquette, Luc; Barnes, Tiffany; Bergner, Yoav – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Completion rates for massive open online classes (MOOCs) are notoriously low, but learner intent is an important factor. By studying students who drop out despite their intent to complete the MOOC, it may be possible to develop interventions to improve retention and learning outcomes. Previous research into predicting MOOC completion has focused…
