Haim, Aaron; Gyurcsan, Robert; Baxter, Chris; Shaw, Stacy T.; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
Despite increased efforts to assess the adoption rates of open science and robustness of reproducibility in sub-disciplines of education technology, there is a lack of understanding of why some research is not reproducible. Prior work has taken the first step toward assessing reproducibility of research, but has assumed certain constraints which…

Garcia, Léo Manoel Lopes da Silva; Lara, Daiany Francisca; Gomes, Raquel Salcedo; Cazella, Silvio Cézar – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2022
In educational data mining (EDM), preprocessing is an arduous and complex task and must promote an appropriate treatment of data to solve each specific educational problem. In the same way, the parameters used in the evaluation of postprocessing results are decisive in the interpretation of the results and decision-making in the future. These two…
