Jane Hubbard – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
The current paper overviews a nine-month PhD study that investigated the impact of learning mathematics through sequences of challenging tasks on the mathematical competence and attitudes of Year 2 students (n = 59). Adopting a Self-Determination Theory lens, a pragmatist paradigm and a mixed-method design, the study found that at all levels of…

Kang, Jina; An, Dongwook; Yan, Lili; Liu, Min – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) as a key competency required in the 21st century. There has been an increasing need to understand CPS since it involves not only cognitive but also social processes, and thus its process is difficult to examine. Recent research has highlighted that computer-based learning environments provide an opportunity for…

Seah, Rebecca; Horne, Marj – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2022
Building from the evidence-based learning progression in geometric reasoning from the RMFII project, this paper presents data from students' solutions to three problems in geometry and measurement situations to identify key components needed to nurture reasoning. To show emerging analytical reasoning students must coordinate multiple pieces of…

Chen, Binglin; West, Matthew; Ziles, Craig – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2018
This paper attempts to quantify the accuracy limit of "nextitem-correct" prediction by using numerical optimization to estimate the student's probability of getting each question correct given a complete sequence of item responses. This optimization is performed without an explicit parameterized model of student behavior, but with the…

Shen, Shitian; Chi, Min – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
One of the most challenging tasks in the field of Educational Data Mining (EDM) is to cluster students directly based on system-student sequential moment-to-moment interactive trajectories. The objective of this study is to build a general temporal clustering framework that captures the distinct characteristics of students' sequential behaviors…

Doroudi, Shayan; Holstein, Kenneth; Aleven, Vincent; Brunskill, Emma – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
How should a wide variety of educational activities be sequenced to maximize student learning? Although some experimental studies have addressed this question, educational data mining methods may be able to evaluate a wider range of possibilities and better handle many simultaneous sequencing constraints. We introduce Sequencing Constraint…

Ye, Cheng; Segedy, James R.; Kinnebrew, John S.; Biswas, Gautam – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
This paper discusses Multi-Feature Hierarchical Sequential Pattern Mining, MFH-SPAM, a novel algorithm that efficiently extracts patterns from students' learning activity sequences. This algorithm extends an existing sequential pattern mining algorithm by dynamically selecting the level of specificity for hierarchically-defined features…

Min, Wookhee; Wiggins, Joseph B.; Pezzullo, Lydia G.; Vail, Alexandria K.; Boyer, Kristy Elizabeth; Mott, Bradford W.; Frankosky, Megan H.; Wiebe, Eric N.; Lester, James C. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
Recent years have seen a growing interest in intelligent game-based learning environments featuring virtual agents. A key challenge posed by incorporating virtual agents in game-based learning environments is dynamically determining the dialogue moves they should make in order to best support students' problem solving. This paper presents a…

Jonassen, David H.; Pearson, Marilyn – 1986
This study compared the efficiency (time) and accuracy of two representations of instructional algorithms--list versus flow chart--for the task of using indexes to search for document numbers in the U.S. Documents Monthly Catalog. Participants were 55 undergraduates and 5 adults at the Virginia Military Institute. Two sets (flow charts and lists)…

Pallrand, George J. – 1988
This investigation focuses upon the question of: (1) how naive subjects organize and represent knowledge when solving problems; (2) how previous experience of a novice is used in solving a problem; (3) what kinds of information and knowledge are sought as well as overlooked by novices when solving problems; (4) what kinds of strategies novices…

Nugent, Harold E.; Monroe, Susan – 1982
In an attempt to serve underprepared students--students who are beginners in writing, reading, and logical thinking skills--the English department at Keene State College in New Hampshire has been evolving a developmental English composition course designed to enable these students to participate effectively in their subsequent general education…
