Accurately predicting which students are best suited for graduate programs is beneficial to both students and colleges. In this paper, we propose a quantitative machine learning approach to predict an applicant's potential performance in the graduate program. Our work is based on a real world dataset consisting of MS in CS [Master of Science in…

The current study was designed to examine the relationship between cognitive ability and player experience in shaping how players think within, and acclimate to, video games as complex systems. Specifically, researchers examined the relationship between player's cognitive ability and gameplay outcomes within a video game (i.e., The Deed). Outcomes…

Online educational resources (e.g., curricula, tutorials, documentation, Q&A sites) increasingly serve as key sources for secondary school students learning Computer Science Principles (CSP). A big obstacle to using these resources is finding information appropriate for the learning task and learner's background. Research shows that secondary…

Oral reading fluency probes are essential for reading assessment, intervention, and progress monitoring. Due to the limited options for choosing oral reading fluency probes, it is important to utilize all available resources such as generative artificial intelligence (AI) like ChatGPT to create oral reading fluency probes. The purpose of this…
