Nowadays, e-learning is a significant learning option, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it is a very challenging task because, in online courses, tutors have no direct interaction with students, which causes most of them to lose interest and ultimately drop out of their studies. In regular classes, teachers can see how each…

In a massive open online courses (MOOCs) learning environment, it is essential to understand students' social knowledge constructs and critical thinking for instructors to design intervention strategies. The development of social knowledge constructs and critical thinking can be represented by cognitive presence, which is a primary component of…

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to build predictive models for early detection of low-performing students and examine the factors that influence massive open online courses students' performance. Design/methodology/approach: For the first step, the author performed exploratory data analysis to analyze the dataset. The process was then…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have evolved rapidly in recent years due to their open and massive nature. However, MOOCs suffer from a high dropout rate, since learners struggle to stay cognitively and emotionally engaged. Learner feedback is an excellent way to understand learner behaviour and model early decision making. In the presented…

As a first step toward automatic feedback based on students' strategies for solving histogram tasks we investigated how strategy recognition can be automated based on students' gazes. A previous study showed how students' task-specific strategies can be inferred from their gazes. The research question addressed in the present article is how data…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs; online courses delivered over the Internet) enable distance learning without time and place constraints. MOOCs are popular; however, active participation level among students who take MOOCs is generally lower than that among students who take in-person courses. Students who take MOOCs often lack guidance, and…

No records of systematic reviews focused on deep learning in open learning have been found, although there has been some focus on other areas of machine learning. Through a systematic review, this study aimed to determine the trends, applied computational techniques, and areas of educational use of deep learning in open learning. The PRISMA…

The Indian Institute of Science is proud to host the fully in-person sixteenth iteration of the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM) during July 11-14, 2023. EDM is the annual flagship conference of the International Educational Data Mining Society. The theme of this year's conference is "Educational data mining for…
