de Carvalho, Walisson Ferreira; Zárate, Luis Enrique – International Journal of Information and Learning Technology, 2021
Purpose: The paper aims to present a new two stage local causal learning algorithm -- HEISA. In the first stage, the algorithm discoveries the subset of features that better explains a target variable. During the second stage, computes the causal effect, using partial correlation, of each feature of the selected subset. Using this new algorithm,…

Galyardt, April; Goldin, Ilya – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2015
In educational technology and learning sciences, there are multiple uses for a predictive model of whether a student will perform a task correctly or not. For example, an intelligent tutoring system may use such a model to estimate whether or not a student has mastered a skill. We analyze the significance of data recency in making such…

Sabourin, Jennifer L.; Rowe, Jonathan P.; Mott, Bradford W.; Lester, James C. – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2013
Over the past decade, there has been growing interest in real-time assessment of student engagement and motivation during interactions with educational software. Detecting symptoms of disengagement, such as off-task behavior, has shown considerable promise for understanding students' motivational characteristics during learning. In this paper, we…

Rai, Dovan; Gong, Yue; Beck, Joseph E. – International Working Group on Educational Data Mining, 2009
Student modeling is a widely used approach to make inference about a student's attributes like knowledge, learning, etc. If we wish to use these models to analyze and better understand student learning there are two problems. First, a model's ability to predict student performance is at best weakly related to the accuracy of any one of its…
