Nesrine Mansouri; Mourad Abed; Makram Soui – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Selecting undergraduate majors or specializations is a crucial decision for students since it considerably impacts their educational and career paths. Moreover, their decisions should match their academic background, interests, and goals to pursue their passions and discover various career paths with motivation. However, such a decision remains…

Korchi, Adil; Dardor, Mohamed; Mabrouk, El Houssine – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Learning techniques have proven their capacity to treat large amount of data. Most statistical learning approaches use specific size learning sets and create static models. Withal, in certain some situations such as incremental or active learning the learning process can work with only a smal amount of data. In this case, the search for algorithms…

Lemay, David John; Doleck, Tenzin – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
Predicting student performance in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) is important to aid in retention efforts. Researchers have demonstrated that video watching features can be used to accurately predict student test performance on video quizzes employing neural networks to predict video test grades from viewing behavior including video searching…

Cohausz, Lea; Tschalzev, Andrej; Bartelt, Christian; Stuckenschmidt, Heiner – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
Demographic features are commonly used in Educational Data Mining (EDM) research to predict at-risk students. Yet, the practice of using demographic features has to be considered extremely problematic due to the data's sensitive nature, but also because (historic and representation) biases likely exist in the training data, which leads to strong…

Bertolini, Roberto; Finch, Stephen J.; Nehm, Ross H. – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2021
Educators seek to harness knowledge from educational corpora to improve student performance outcomes. Although prior studies have compared the efficacy of data mining methods (DMMs) in pipelines for forecasting student success, less work has focused on identifying a set of relevant features prior to model development and quantifying the stability…

Klingler, Severin; Wampfler, Rafael; Käser, Tanja; Solenthaler, Barbara; Gross, Markus – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
Gathering labeled data in educational data mining (EDM) is a time and cost intensive task. However, the amount of available training data directly influences the quality of predictive models. Unlabeled data, on the other hand, is readily available in high volumes from intelligent tutoring systems and massive open online courses. In this paper, we…

Olsen, Jennifer K.; Aleven, Vincent; Rummel, Nikol – Grantee Submission, 2015
Student models for adaptive systems may not model collaborative learning optimally. Past research has either focused on modeling individual learning or for collaboration, has focused on group dynamics or group processes without predicting learning. In the current paper, we adjust the Additive Factors Model (AFM), a standard logistic regression…

Valdés Aguirre, Benjamín; Ramírez Uresti, Jorge A.; du Boulay, Benedict – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2016
Sharing user information between systems is an area of interest for every field involving personalization. Recommender Systems are more advanced in this aspect than Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) and Intelligent Learning Environments (ILEs). A reason for this is that the user models of Intelligent Tutoring Systems and Intelligent Learning…

Yukselturk, Erman; Ozekes, Serhat; Turel, Yalin Kilic – European Journal of Open, Distance and E-Learning, 2014
This study examined the prediction of dropouts through data mining approaches in an online program. The subject of the study was selected from a total of 189 students who registered to the online Information Technologies Certificate Program in 2007-2009. The data was collected through online questionnaires (Demographic Survey, Online Technologies…

Niemi, David; Gitin, Elena – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2012
An underlying theme of this paper is that it can be easier and more efficient to conduct valid and effective research studies in online environments than in traditional classrooms. Taking advantage of the "big data" available in an online university, we conducted a study in which a massive online database was used to predict student…

Delen, Dursun – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2012
Affecting university rankings, school reputation, and financial well-being, student retention has become one of the most important measures of success for higher education institutions. From the institutional perspective, improving student retention starts with a thorough understanding of the causes behind the attrition. Such an understanding is…

Chang, Chih-Kai; Chen, Gwo-Dong; Wang, Chin-Yeh – Behaviour & Information Technology, 2011
Functional roles may explain the learning performance of groups. Detecting a functional role is critical for promoting group learning performance in computer-supported collaborative learning environments. However, it is not easy for teachers to identify the functional roles played by students in a web-based learning group, or the relationship…

Cocea, M.; Weibelzahl, S. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2011
Learning environments aim to deliver efficacious instruction, but rarely take into consideration the motivational factors involved in the learning process. However, motivational aspects like engagement play an important role in effective learning-engaged learners gain more. E-Learning systems could be improved by tracking students' disengagement…

Baker, Ryan S. J. D.; Yacef, Kalina – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2009
We review the history and current trends in the field of Educational Data Mining (EDM). We consider the methodological profile of research in the early years of EDM, compared to in 2008 and 2009, and discuss trends and shifts in the research conducted by this community. In particular, we discuss the increased emphasis on prediction, the emergence…
