Gobert, Janice Darlene; Sao Pedro, Michael A.; Baker, Ryan S. – Grantee Submission, 2012
In this paper we explored whether engaging in two inquiry skills associated with data collection, designing controlled experiments and testing stated hypotheses, within microworlds for one physical science domain (density) impacted the acquisition of inquiry skills in another domain (phase change). To do so, we leveraged educational data mining…

Baker, Ryan S. J. D.; Goldstein, Adam B.; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2011
Intelligent tutors have become increasingly accurate at detecting whether a student knows a skill, or knowledge component (KC), at a given time. However, current student models do not tell us exactly at which point a KC is learned. In this paper, we present a machine-learned model that assesses the probability that a student learned a KC at a…
