Chen, Weiyu; Brinton, Christopher G.; Cao, Da; Mason-Singh, Amanda; Lu, Charlton; Chiang, Mung – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2019
We study learning outcome prediction for online courses. Whereas prior work has focused on semester-long courses with frequent student assessments, we focus on short-courses that have single outcomes assigned by instructors at the end. The lack of performance data and generally small enrollments makes the behavior of learners, captured as they…
