Nuo Cheng; Wei Zhao; Xiaoqing Xu; Hongxia Liu; Jinhong Tao – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Learning analytics dashboards are becoming increasingly common tools for providing feedback to learners. However, there is limited empirical evidence regarding the effects of learning analytics dashboard design features on learners' cognitive load, particularly in digital learning environments. To address this gap, we developed goal-based,…

Matthew Mauntel; Michelle Zandieh – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2024
In this article we analyze how students reason about linear combinations across multiple digital environments. We present the work of three groups of undergraduate students in the Southeast United States (US) who were considered ready to take linear algebra. The students played the game "Vector Unknown," reflected upon aspects of their…

Reagan Mozer; Luke Miratrix; Jackie Eunjung Relyea; James S. Kim – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2024
In a randomized trial that collects text as an outcome, traditional approaches for assessing treatment impact require that each document first be manually coded for constructs of interest by human raters. An impact analysis can then be conducted to compare treatment and control groups, using the hand-coded scores as a measured outcome. This…

Araka, Eric; Oboko, Robert; Maina, Elizaphan; Gitonga, Rhoda – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2022
With the increased emphasis on the benefits of self-regulated learning (SRL), it is important to make use of the huge amounts of educational data generated from online learning environments to identify the appropriate educational data mining (EDM) techniques that can help explore and understand online learners' behavioral patterns. Understanding…

Jia, Qinjin; Young, Mitchell; Xiao, Yunkai; Cui, Jialin; Liu, Chengyuan; Rashid, Parvez; Gehringer, Edward – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Providing timely feedback is crucial in promoting academic achievement and student success. However, for multifarious reasons (e.g., limited teaching resources), feedback often arrives too late for learners to act on the feedback and improve learning. Thus, automated feedback systems have emerged to tackle educational tasks in various domains,…

Natalie Brezack; Wynnie Chan; Mingyu Feng – Grantee Submission, 2024
This paper explores how learning analytics data provided by a math problem-solving educational technology platform informed 5th and 6th grade teachers' instructional decisions around socioemotional learning (SEL). MathSpring is an educational technology tool that provides teachers with data on students' effort, progress, and emotions while…

Stanislav Pozdniakov; Roberto Martinez-Maldonado; Yi-Shan Tsai; Vanessa Echeverria; Zachari Swiecki; Dragan Gaševic – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2025
Recent research on learning analytics dashboards has focused on designing user interfaces that offer various forms of "visualization guidance" (often referring to notions such as "data storytelling" or "narrative visualization") to teachers (e.g., emphasizing data points or trends with colour and adding annotations),…

PaaBen, Benjamin; Dywel, Malwina; Fleckenstein, Melanie; Pinkwart, Niels – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Item response theory (IRT) is a popular method to infer student abilities and item difficulties from observed test responses. However, IRT struggles with two challenges: How to map items to skills if multiple skills are present? And how to infer the ability of new students that have not been part of the training data? Inspired by recent advances…

Parhizkar, Amirmohammad; Tejeddin, Golnaz; Khatibi, Toktam – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Increasing productivity in educational systems is of great importance. Researchers are keen to predict the academic performance of students; this is done to enhance the overall productivity of educational system by effectively identifying students whose performance is below average. This universal concern has been combined with data science…

Zhou, Yuhao; Li, Xihua; Cao, Yunbo; Zhao, Xuemin; Ye, Qing; Lv, Jiancheng – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
In educational applications, "Knowledge Tracing" (KT) has been widely studied for decades as it is considered a fundamental task towards adaptive online learning. Among proposed KT methods, Deep Knowledge Tracing (DKT) and its variants are by far the most effective ones due to the high flexibility of the neural network. However, DKT…

Sha, Lele; Rakovic, Mladen; Li, Yuheng; Whitelock-Wainwright, Alexander; Carroll, David; Gaševic, Dragan; Chen, Guanliang – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
Classifying educational forum posts is a longstanding task in the research of Learning Analytics and Educational Data Mining. Though this task has been tackled by applying both traditional Machine Learning (ML) approaches (e.g., Logistics Regression and Random Forest) and up-to-date Deep Learning (DL) approaches, there lacks a systematic…
