Lokkila, Erno; Christopoulos, Athanasios; Laakso, Mikko-Jussi – Informatics in Education, 2023
Prior programming knowledge of students has a major impact on introductory programming courses. Those with prior experience often seem to breeze through the course. Those without prior experience see others breeze through the course and disengage from the material or drop out. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that novice student…

Patel, Nirmal; Sharma, Aditya; Shah, Tirth; Lomas, Derek – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2021
Process Analysis is an emerging approach to discover meaningful knowledge from temporal educational data. The study presented in this paper shows how we used Process Analysis methods on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) test data for modeling and predicting student test-taking behavior. Our process-oriented data exploration…

Ramesh, Arti; Goldwasser, Dan; Huang, Bert; Daume, Hal; Getoor, Lise – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Maintaining and cultivating student engagement is critical for learning. Understanding factors affecting student engagement can help in designing better courses and improving student retention. The large number of participants in massive open online courses (MOOCs) and data collected from their interactions on the MOOC open up avenues for studying…

Hansen, Christian; Hansen, Casper; Hjuler, Niklas; Alstrup, Stephen; Lioma, Christina – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
The analysis of log data generated by online educational systems is an important task for improving the systems, and furthering our knowledge of how students learn. This paper uses previously unseen log data from Edulab, the largest provider of digital learning for mathematics in Denmark, to analyse the sessions of its users, where 1.08 million…

Hoernle, Nicholas; Gal, Kobi; Grosz, Barbara; Protopapas, Pavlos; Rubin, Andee – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2018
Simulations that combine real world components with interactive digital media provide a rich setting for students with the potential to assist knowledge building and understanding of complex physical processes. This paper addresses the problem of modeling the effects of multiple students' simultaneous interactions on the complex and exploratory…

Rafferty, Anna N.; Brunskill, Emma; Griffiths, Thomas L.; Shafto, Patrick – Cognitive Science, 2016
Human and automated tutors attempt to choose pedagogical activities that will maximize student learning, informed by their estimates of the student's current knowledge. There has been substantial research on tracking and modeling student learning, but significantly less attention on how to plan teaching actions and how the assumed student model…

Faucon, Louis; Kidzinski, Lukasz; Dillenbourg, Pierre – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
Large-scale experiments are often expensive and time consuming. Although Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) provide a solid and consistent framework for learning analytics, MOOC practitioners are still reluctant to risk resources in experiments. In this study, we suggest a methodology for simulating MOOC students, which allow estimation of…

Geigle, Chase; Zhai, ChengXiang – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2017
Massive open online courses (MOOCs) provide educators with an abundance of data describing how students interact with the platform, but this data is highly underutilized today. This is in part due to the lack of sophisticated tools to provide interpretable and actionable summaries of huge amounts of MOOC activity present in log data. To address…

Shen, Shitian; Mostafavi, Behrooz; Barnes, Tiffany; Chi, Min – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2018
An important goal in the design and development of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) is to have a system that adaptively reacts to students' behavior in the short term and effectively improves their learning performance in the long term. Inducing effective pedagogical strategies that accomplish this goal is an essential challenge. To address…

Klingler, Severin; Käser, Tanja; Solenthaler, Barbara; Gross, Markus – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
The extraction of student behavior is an important task in educational data mining. A common approach to detect similar behavior patterns is to cluster sequential data. Standard approaches identify clusters at each time step separately and typically show low performance for data that inherently suffer from noise, resulting in temporally…

Andrade, Alejandro; Delandshere, Ginette; Danish, Joshua A. – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2016
One of the challenges many learning scientists face is the laborious task of coding large amounts of video data and consistently identifying social actions, which is time consuming and difficult to accomplish in a systematic and consistent manner. It is easier to catalog observable behaviours (e.g., body motions or gaze) without explicitly…

Lu, Yihan; Hsiao, I-Han – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
Online programming discussion forums have grown increasingly and have formed sizable repositories of problem solving-solutions. In this paper, we investigate programming learners' information seeking behaviors from online discussion forums. We design engines to collect students' information seeking processes, including query formulation,…

Galyardt, April; Goldin, Ilya – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2015
In educational technology and learning sciences, there are multiple uses for a predictive model of whether a student will perform a task correctly or not. For example, an intelligent tutoring system may use such a model to estimate whether or not a student has mastered a skill. We analyze the significance of data recency in making such…

Espelage, Dorothy L.; Rose, Chad A.; Polanin, Joshua R. – Remedial and Special Education, 2016
This 3-year study evaluated the effectiveness of the Second Step-Student Success Through Prevention (SS-SSTP) social-emotional learning program on increasing prosocial behaviors that could serve as protective factors against peer conflict and bullying among students with disabilities. Participants included 123 students with disabilities across 12…

Sao Pedro, Michael A.; Baker, Ryan S. J. d.; Gobert, Janice D.; Montalvo, Orlando; Nakama, Adam – Grantee Submission, 2013
We present work toward automatically assessing and estimating science inquiry skills as middle school students engage in inquiry within a physical science microworld. Towards accomplishing this goal, we generated machine-learned models that can detect when students test their articulated hypotheses, design controlled experiments, and engage in…
