Beirne, Elaine; Mhichíl, Mairéad Nic Giolla; Cleircín, Gearóid Ó – Research-publishing.net, 2017
Many of the major Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) platforms support learning approaches which can be roughly categorised as transmission-based and asynchronous (Morris & Lambe, 2014), with limited forms of interactive elements. Language learning is viewed within this study as an active process which includes knowledge, skills, and cultural…

An, Truong-Sinh; Krauss, Christopher; Merceron, Agathe – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
The emergence of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) has enabled new research to analyze typical behaviors of learners. In this paper, we investigate whether this research is generalizable to other courses that are backed by a learning management system (LMS) as MOOCs are. Building on methods developed by others, we characterize individual…

Davis, Dan; Chen, Guanliang; Hauff, Claudia; Houben, Geert-Jan – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) platform designs, such as those of edX and Coursera, afford linear learning sequences by building scaffolded knowledge from activity to activity and from week to week. We consider those sequences to be the courses' "designed" learning paths. But do learners actually adhere to these designed paths, or do…

Ren, Zhiyun; Rangwala, Huzefa; Johri, Aditya – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
The past few years has seen the rapid growth of data mining approaches for the analysis of data obtained from Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). The objectives of this study are to develop approaches to predict the scores a student may achieve on a given grade-related assessment based on information, considered as prior performance or prior…

Milligan, Sandra; Griffin, Patrick – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2016
The paper describes empirical investigations of how participants in a MOOC learn, and the implications for MOOC design. A learner capability to generate higher order learning in MOOCs--called crowd-sourced learning (C-SL) capability--was defined from learning science literature. The capability comprised a complex yet interrelated array of…

Jo, Yohan; Tomar, Gaurav; Ferschke, Oliver; Rosé, Carolyn P.; Gaševic, Dragan – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
An important research problem for Educational Data Mining is to expedite the cycle of data leading to the analysis of student learning processes and the improvement of support for those processes. For this goal in the context of social interaction in learning, we propose a three-part pipeline that includes data infrastructure, learning process…
