Yaosheng Lou; Kimberly F. Colvin – Discover Education, 2025
Predicting student performance has been a critical focus of educational research. With an effective predictive model, schools can identify potentially at-risk students and implement timely interventions to support student success. Recent developments in educational data mining (EDM) have introduced several machine learning techniques that can…

Yikai Lu; Lingbo Tong; Ying Cheng – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2024
Knowledge tracing aims to model and predict students' knowledge states during learning activities. Traditional methods like Bayesian Knowledge Tracing (BKT) and logistic regression have limitations in granularity and performance, while deep knowledge tracing (DKT) models often suffer from lacking transparency. This paper proposes a…

Gregory Chernov – Evaluation Review, 2025
Most existing solutions to the current replication crisis in science address only the factors stemming from specific poor research practices. We introduce a novel mechanism that leverages the experts' predictive abilities to analyze the root causes of replication failures. It is backed by the principle that the most accurate predictor is the most…

Seth Elkin-Frankston; James McIntyre; Tad T. Brunyé; Aaron L. Gardony; Clifford L. Hancock; Meghan P. O'Donovan; Victoria G. Bode; Eric L. Miller – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2025
Existing toolkits for analyzing movement dynamics in animal ecology primarily focus on individual or group behavior in habitats without predefined boundaries, while methods for studying human activity often cater to bounded environments, such as team sports played on defined fields. This leaves a gap in tools for modeling and analyzing human group…

Anthony S. DiStefano; Joshua S. Yang – Field Methods, 2024
Despite recent methodological advances in saturation, guidelines for its estimation in more complex research designs--such as ethnographic studies--have been lacking. We present an accessible, step-by-step approach to empirical assessment of data saturation, tested on a moderately sized ethnographic study with 109 combined direct observations and…

Majdi Beseiso – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2025
Predicting students' success is crucial in educational settings to improve academic performance and prevent dropouts. This study aimed to improve student performance prediction by combining advanced machine learning (ML) approaches. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and attention mechanisms were used for extracting relevant features from…

Khajonmote, Withamon; Chinsook, Kittipong; Klintawon, Sununta; Sakulthai, Chaiyan; Leamsakul, Wicha; Jansawang, Natchanok; Jantakoon, Thada – Journal of Education and Learning, 2022
The system architecture of big data in massive open online courses (BD-MOOCs System Architecture) is composed of six components. The first component was comprised of big data tools and technologies such as Hadoop, YARN, HDFS, Spark, Hive, Sqoop, and Flume. The second component was educational data science, which is composed of the following four…

Narjes Rohani; Behnam Rohani; Areti Manataki – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2024
The prediction of student performance and the analysis of students' learning behaviour play an important role in enhancing online courses. By analysing a massive amount of clickstream data that captures student behaviour, educators can gain valuable insights into the factors that influence students' academic outcomes and identify areas of…

Meylan, Stephan C.; Griffiths, Thomas L. – Cognitive Science, 2021
Language research has come to rely heavily on large-scale, web-based datasets. These datasets can present significant methodological challenges, requiring researchers to make a number of decisions about how they are collected, represented, and analyzed. These decisions often concern long-standing challenges in corpus-based language research,…

Lorusso, Nicholas S.; Gemmellaro, M. Denise – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
One significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic for educators in forensic science was adapting what is traditionally a very applied field to a virtual learning environment. Because of this, science classes with a practical laboratory component had to implement significant adjustments to ensure that student learning objectives were still met,…

Hillman, Velislava; Bryant, Jeff – Learning, Media and Technology, 2023
This paper addresses families' perceptions of corporate influence in career and technical education (CTE) through market-driven policies that enable data extraction for student profiling and seek to align K-12 education with business-driven needs. Aligning education with business needs can offer early employment, however, accelerating…

Yuan Hsiao; Lee Fiorio; Jonathan Wakefield; Emilio Zagheni – Sociological Methods & Research, 2024
Obtaining reliable and timely estimates of migration flows is critical for advancing the migration theory and guiding policy decisions, but it remains a challenge. Digital data provide granular information on time and space, but do not draw from representative samples of the population, leading to biased estimates. We propose a method for…
