Baker, Ryan S. J. D.; Goldstein, Adam B.; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2011
Intelligent tutors have become increasingly accurate at detecting whether a student knows a skill, or knowledge component (KC), at a given time. However, current student models do not tell us exactly at which point a KC is learned. In this paper, we present a machine-learned model that assesses the probability that a student learned a KC at a…
