This paper demonstrated how to apply Machine Learning (ML) techniques to analyze student interaction data collected in an online mathematics game. Using a data-driven approach, we examined 1) how different ML algorithms influenced the precision of middle-school students' (N = 359) performance (i.e. posttest math knowledge scores) prediction and 2)…

This paper demonstrates how to apply Machine Learning (ML) techniques to analyze student interaction data collected in an online mathematics game. We examined: (1) how different ML algorithms influenced the precision of middle-school students' (N = 359) performance prediction; and (2) what types of in-game features were associated with student…

The uses of simulation as a technique for instruction and research have been expanding over the past ten years. As an aid to educational practitioners, the sampling procedures associated with trivariate normal populations are described along with a description of an APL/1500 computer program for this level of multivariate sampling in educational…

Organisational investments in information technologies have increased significantly in the past few decades. All around the globe and in Malaysia particularly, a number of educational institutions are experimenting with e-learning. Adopting the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) and the technology acceptance model (TAM) this article tries to…

In order to make formal instruction more responsive to individual needs, the following study implemented a procedure for transforming a conventional set of course materials into an interactive learning environment. The basic mechanism for interaction was a computer generated and computer administered quiz that sampled from concepts in the reading…

A linear regression model was used to select items from a pool of 700 arithmetic word problems to be used in a computer-assisted mathematics curriculum for elementary school students. The experimental procedure first involved a stepwise linear regression analysis of a student's performance over a set of 25 problems. The probability correct for…
