Learner modeling systems so far formulated model learning in three main ways: a learner's "position" within a lattice of declarative and procedural knowledge about highly structured disciplines such as geometry or physics, a learner's path through curricular tasks compared to milestones, or profiles of a learner's achievements on a set…

Learning analytics (LA) provides tools to analyze historical data with the goal of better understanding how curricular structures and features have impacted student learning. Forward-looking curriculum design, however, frequently involves a degree of uncertainty. Historical data may be unavailable, a contemplated modification to curriculum may be…

Adaptivity in advanced learning technologies offer the possibility to adapt to different student backgrounds, which is difficult to do in a traditional classroom setting. However, there are mixed results on the effectiveness of adaptivity based on different implementations and contexts. In this paper, we introduce AI adaptivity in the context of a…

With the increasing bandwidth, videos have been gradually used as submissions for online peer assessment activities. However, their transient nature imposes a high cognitive load on students, particularly lowability students. Therefore, reviewers' ability is a key factor that may affect the reviewing process and performance in an online video peer…

This study investigated the effectiveness of blended instruction in enhancing student success in an advanced undergraduate engineering course. The research used learning analytics captured from pre-recorded lecture videos, course grade data, and student surveys. Results revealed positive correlations between lecture video viewership and course…

Learning in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) requires learners to self-regulate their learning process or receive effective self-regulated learning (SRL) interventions to accomplish personal goals. Much attention has thus been paid to how SRL influences learner performance in MOOCs, but research has overlooked a person-centered analysis of how…

Machine learning and data mining techniques have been widely used in educational settings to identify the important features that tend to influence students' learning performance and predict their future performance. However, there is little to no research done in the context of Singapore's education. Hence, this study aims to fill the gap by…

We use a randomised experiment to study the effect of offering half of 556 freshman students a learning analytics dashboard and a weekly email with a link to their dashboard, on student behaviour in the online environment and final exam performance. The dashboard shows their online progress in the learning management systems, their predicted…

Background: It is vital to understand students' Self-Regulatory Learning (SRL) processes, especially in Blended Learning (BL), when students need to be more autonomous in their learning process. In studying SRL, most researchers have followed a variable-oriented approach. Moreover, little has been known about the unfolding process of students' SRL…

Personalized education--the systematic adaptation of instruction to individual learners--has been a long-striven goal. We review research on personalized education that has been conducted in the laboratory, in the classroom, and in digital learning environments. Across all learning environments, we find that personalization is most successful when…

This systematic literature review investigates the fairness of machine learning algorithms in educational settings, focusing on recent studies and their proposed solutions to address biases. Applications analyzed include student dropout prediction, performance prediction, forum post classification, and recommender systems. We identify common…

Language learner engagement, which is receiving increased attention, has predominantly focused on offline classroom contexts, while learner engagement in language Massive Open Online Courses (LMOOCs) remains under-explored. This study was conducted on a College English MOOC with the purpose of examining learner engagement and its relations with…

For the special issue of the International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education dedicated to the memory of Jim Greer, this paper highlights some of Jim's extensive and always-timely contributions to the field: from his early AI-focussed research on intelligent tutoring systems, through a variety of applications deployed to support…

In the age of Internet Plus, the deep integration of information technology into education and individualized instruction have become a growing trend in education development. Self-regulated learning is a key element of student core competence, but easy to be overlooked in basic education. The purpose of this study is to establish the data…

The rapid development of education informatization has accumulated a large amount of data for learning analytics, and adopting educational data mining to find new patterns of data, develop new algorithms and models, and apply known predictive models to the teaching system to improve learning is the challenge and vision of the education field in…
