Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) have been used to provide automated assistance to customers in different organizations from diverse sectors. In the context of higher educational institutions (HEIs) especially in universities, research indicates that KMS assist universities with quicker response time to key issues, share vital knowledge, improve…

An interactive textbook for a material and energy balances course measured over 1,300 reading interactions and hundreds of auto-graded problems per student each term. Specifically, seven cohorts and 601 students completed over 700,000 reading interactions and 150,000 auto-graded problems. Median reading participation was over 93%. Median correct…

Significant advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have led to the development of Google Gemini, which can be used to provide automated writing assistance. Within higher education, this feature extends to research writing. However, skepticism is particularly evident as students, teachers, and researchers in universities explore…

As Computer Science has increased in popularity so too have class sizes and demands on faculty to provide support. It is therefore more important than ever for us to identify new ways to triage student questions, identify common problems, target students who need the most help, and better manage instructors' time. By analyzing interaction data…

The article describes an attempt to address the automatized evaluation of student three-dimensional (3D) computer-aided design (CAD) models. The driving idea was conceptualized under the restraints of the COVID pandemic, driven by the problem of evaluating a large number of student 3D CAD models. The described computer solution can be implemented…

Social networking-based learning (SN-learning) is one of the most promising innovations to promote learning via a social network, and thus, providing a more interactive, student-centered, cooperative, and on-demand environment. In such an environment, group formation plays an important role to the effectiveness of learning process. Adequate groups…

This paper proposes a novel e-Learning system using the mixed reality (MR) technique for technical experiments involving the construction of electronic circuits. The proposed system comprises experimenters' mobile computers and a remote analysis system. When constructing circuits, each learner uses a mobile computer to transmit image data from the…

In this paper, we present BH-ShaDe, a new software tool to assist architecture students learning the ill-structured domain/task of housing design. The software tool provides students with automatic or interactively generated floor plan schemas for basic houses. The students can then use the generated schemas as initial seeds to develop complete…

The University System of Georgia, which consists of 4 universities, 15 senior colleges, and 15 junior colleges, developed a student reporting system that would enable it to prepare seven federal and two internal reports. The Student Information Reporting System is described. (MLW)

The University of Scranton's commitment to computing is evident in its annual central computing budget that represents 5 percent of the total institutional budget. Information technology planning and organization, university computing systems, Technology Center, faculty and student computing, administrative systems, and library automation are…
