Haynes, Emily; Garside, Ruth; Green, Judith; Kelly, Michael P.; Thomas, James; Guell, Cornelia – Research Synthesis Methods, 2019
Approaches to synthesizing qualitative data have, to date, largely focused on integrating the findings from published reports. However, developments in text mining software offer the potential for efficient analysis of large pooled primary qualitative datasets. This case study aimed to (a) provide a step-by-step guide to using one software…

Hayes, Casey; Parks, Rodney – College and University, 2020
For many higher education institutions, certifying degree completion is both challenging and time consuming. Depending on the size of the institution, graduation processing can take multiple staff days to complete. In an age of limited staffing, registrars must leverage technology to handle these increasing workloads. Such was the case with a…

Liu, Ruitao; Tan, Aixin – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2020
In this paper, we describe our solution to predict student STEM career choices during the 2017 ASSISTments Datamining Competition. We built a machine learning system that automatically reformats the data set, generates new features and prunes redundant ones, and performs model and feature selection. We designed the system to automatically find a…

Raborn, Anthony W.; Leite, Walter L.; Marcoulides, Katerina M. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2020
This study compares automated methods to develop short forms of psychometric scales. Obtaining a short form that has both adequate internal structure and strong validity with respect to relationships with other variables is difficult with traditional methods of short-form development. Metaheuristic algorithms can select items for short forms while…

van Groen, Maaike M.; Eggen, Theo J. H. M. – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2020
When developing a digital test, one of the first decisions that need to be made is which type of Computer-Based Test (CBT) to develop. Six different CBT types are considered here: linear tests, automatically generated tests, computerized adaptive tests, adaptive learning environments, educational simulations, and educational games. The selection…

McDonald, Jenny; Moskal, Adon Christian Michael; Goodchild, Allen; Stein, Sarah; Terry, Stuart – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2020
Student evaluations of teaching and courses (SETs) are part of the fabric of tertiary education and quantitative ratings derived from SETs are highly valued by tertiary institutions. However, many staff do not engage meaningfully with SETs, especially if the process of analysing student feedback is cumbersome or time-consuming. To address this…

Meikleham, Alexandra; Hugo, Ron – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
Quality feedback is crucial to learning; the growth of online delivery has altered how it is obtained and shared. Educators interested in improving online learning can benefit from understanding formal and informal feedback flows existing in face-to-face environments and how these transfer online. This article examines the nuance of informal…

Fancsali, Stephen E.; Holstein, Kenneth; Sandbothe, Michael; Ritter, Steven; McLaren, Bruce M.; Aleven, Vincent – Grantee Submission, 2020
Extensive literature in artificial intelligence in education focuses on developing automated methods for detecting cases in which students struggle to master content while working with educational software. Such cases have often been called "wheel-spinning," "unproductive persistence," or "unproductive struggle." We…

Zhai, Na; Ma, Xiaomei – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2022
Automated writing evaluation (AWE) has been used increasingly to provide feedback on student writing. Previous research typically focused on its inter-rater reliability with human graders and validation frameworks. The limited body of research has only discussed students' attitudes or perceptions in general. A systematic investigation of the…
