Fonseca, Samuel C.; Pereira, Filipe Dwan; Oliveira, Elaine H. T.; Oliveira, David B. F.; Carvalho, Leandro S. G.; Cristea, Alexandra I. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
As programming must be learned by doing, introductory programming course learners need to solve many problems, e.g., on systems such as 'Online Judges'. However, as such courses are often compulsory for non-Computer Science (nonCS) undergraduates, this may cause difficulties to learners that do not have the typical intrinsic motivation for…

Mao, Ye; Marwan, Samiha; Price, Thomas W.; Barnes, Tiffany; Chi, Min – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
Modeling student learning processes is highly complex since it is influenced by many factors such as motivation and learning habits. The high volume of features and tools provided by computer-based learning environments confounds the task of tracking student knowledge even further. Deep Learning models such as Long-Short Term Memory (LSTMs) and…

Backenköhler, Michael; Scherzinger, Felix; Singla, Adish; Wolf, Verena – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2018
Course selection can be a daunting task, especially for first year students. Sub-optimal selection can lead to bad performance of students and increase the dropout rate. Given the availability of historic data about student performances, it is possible to aid students in the selection of appropriate courses. Here, we propose a method to compose a…

Bahargam, Sanaz; Erdos, Dóra; Bestavros, Azer; Terzi, Evimaria – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Whether teaching in a classroom or a Massive Online Open Course it is crucial to present the material in a way that benefits the audience as a whole. We identify two important tasks to solve towards this objective; (1) group students so that they can maximally benefit from peer interaction and (2) find an optimal schedule of the educational…
