Knowledge tracing (KT), the task of tracking the knowledge state of each student over time, has been assessed actively by artificial intelligence researchers. Recent reports have described that Deep-IRT, which combines Item Response Theory (IRT) with a deep learning model, provides superior performance. It can express the abilities of each student…

In order to learn the mappings from words to referents, children must integrate co-occurrence information across individually ambiguous pairs of scenes and utterances, a challenge known as cross-situational word learning. In machine learning, recent multimodal neural networks have been shown to learn meaningful visual-linguistic mappings from…

Traditional assessment in international sports communication is often fragmented and subjective, limiting timely, learner-centered feedback. This study presents a curriculum framework enhanced by generative artificial intelligence, coupled with a deep learning (DL) model for instructional effectiveness assessment in international sports…

In this investigation we propose new machine learning methods for automated scoring models that predict the vocabulary acquisition in science and social studies of second grade English language learners, based upon free-form spoken responses. We evaluate performance on an existing dataset and use transfer learning from a large pre-trained language…

Data collection and analysis is nothing new in computer-assisted language learning, but with the phenomenon of massive sets of human language collected into corpora, and especially integrated into systems driven by artificial intelligence, new opportunities have arisen for language teaching and learning. We are now seeing powerful artificial…

A significant amount of research effort has been put into finding variables that can identify students at risk based on activity records available in learning management systems (LMS). These variables often depend on the context, for example, the course structure, how the activities are assessed or whether the course is entirely online or a…
