Preparing the new generation to be data-literate citizens is a pressing challenge, and some explorations have been made to cultivate K-12 students' data science skills and attitudes. However, there is a lack of instructional models to guide the design of data science programs in K-12 due to its complex and interdisciplinary nature as well as the…

It's critical to foster artificial intelligence (AI) literacy for high school students, the first generation to grow up surrounded by AI, to understand working mechanism of data-driven AI technologies and critically evaluate automated decisions from predictive models. While efforts have been made to engage youth in understanding AI through…

Background: Science education should encompass enculturation in science which implies performing scientific practices such as use of data and modelling, in authentic contexts like the field. Purpose: This work aims to determine how preservice elementary teachers (PETs) use data obtained in the field, and how these data contribute to the process of…

This study investigates the development and implementation of a big data-driven English ecological classroom teaching model, aiming to reform university English instruction in alignment with contemporary technological advancements.

This dissertation's two primary purposes were to construct an alternative socioeconomic status model and estimate how it predicts student success in higher education. This research filled a gap in knowledge about the widely acknowledged disparities in higher education based on socioeconomic status. Prior research has often relied on parental…

Based on a statistical analysis, undergraduate business students are shown to prefer classification tree over six other standard data mining techniques. Data were collected over a 4-year period from students taking a data mining course offered at a business university in the US. The principal reason given by students for this preference is that…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have evolved rapidly in recent years due to their open and massive nature. However, MOOCs suffer from a high dropout rate, since learners struggle to stay cognitively and emotionally engaged. Learner feedback is an excellent way to understand learner behaviour and model early decision making. In the presented…

Governments and educational authorities around the world are emphasizing performance evaluation of educational systems.
