Hai Li; Wanli Xing; Chenglu Li; Wangda Zhu; Simon Woodhead – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2025
Knowledge tracing (KT) is a method to evaluate a student's knowledge state (KS) based on their historical problem-solving records by predicting the next answer's binary correctness. Although widely applied to closed-ended questions, it lacks a detailed option tracing (OT) method for assessing multiple-choice questions (MCQs). This paper introduces…

Baral, Sami; Botelho, Anthony F.; Erickson, John A.; Benachamardi, Priyanka; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
Open-ended questions in mathematics are commonly used by teachers to monitor and assess students' deeper conceptual understanding of content. Student answers to these types of questions often exhibit a combination of language, drawn diagrams and tables, and mathematical formulas and expressions that supply teachers with insight into the processes…

Savi, Alexander O.; Deonovic, Benjamin E.; Bolsinova, Maria; van der Maas, Han L. J.; Maris, Gunter K. J. – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2021
In learning, errors are ubiquitous and inevitable. As these errors may signal otherwise latent cognitive processes, tutors--and students alike--can greatly benefit from the information they provide. In this paper, we introduce and evaluate the Systematic Error Tracing (SET) model that identifies the possible causes of systematically observed…

Rafferty, Anna N.; Jansen, Rachel A.; Griffiths, Thomas L. – Cognitive Science, 2020
Online educational technologies offer opportunities for providing individualized feedback and detailed profiles of students' skills. Yet many technologies for mathematics education assess students based only on the correctness of either their final answers or responses to individual steps. In contrast, examining the choices students make for how…

Choi, Hye-Jeong; Cohen, Allan S.; Bottge, Brian A. – Grantee Submission, 2016
The purpose of this study was to apply a random item mixture nominal item response model (RIM-MixNRM) for investigating instruction effects. The host study design was a pre-test-and-post-test, school-based cluster randomized trial. A RIM-MixNRM was used to identify students' error patterns in mathematics at the pre-test and the post-test.…

Kogar, Esin Yilmaz; Kelecioglu, Hülya – Journal of Education and Learning, 2017
The purpose of this research is to first estimate the item and ability parameters and the standard error values related to those parameters obtained from Unidimensional Item Response Theory (UIRT), bifactor (BIF) and Testlet Response Theory models (TRT) in the tests including testlets, when the number of testlets, number of independent items, and…
