Lan, Andrew S.; Brinton, Christopher G.; Yang, Tsung-Yen; Chiang, Mung – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
We propose a new model for learning that relates video watching behavior and engagement to quiz performance. In our model, a learner's knowledge gain from watching a lecture video is treated as proportional to their latent engagement level, and the learner's engagement is in turn dictated by a set of behavioral features we propose that quantify…

My purpose in presenting these axioms is to stimulate debate about…
