Machine learning (ML) has become commonplace in educational research and science education research, especially to support assessment efforts. Such applications of machine learning have shown their promise in replicating and scaling human-driven codes of students' work. Despite this promise, we and other scholars argue that machine learning has…

In this article, we analyze the potential of conversational frameworks to support the adaptation of existing tutoring systems to a natural language form of interaction. We have based our research on a pilot study, in which the open-source machine learning framework Rasa has been used to build a conversational agent that interacts with an existing…

Accompanied with the development of storage and processing capacity of modern technology, educational data increases sharply. It is difficult for educational researchers to derive useful information from much educational data. Therefore, educational data mining techniques are important for the development of modern education field. Recently,…

With the recent proliferation of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models capable of mimicking human artworks, AI creations might soon replace products of human creativity, although skeptics argue that this outcome is unlikely. One possible reason this may be unlikely is that, independent of the physical properties of art, we place great value…

Learning path recommender systems are emerging. Given the popularity of ontology/knowledge-based systems in adaptive learning, this work reviews learning path in ontology-based recommender systems. The review covers recommendation trends, ontology use, recommendation process, recommendation technique, contributing factors, and recommender…

Despite the fact that the digital administration format of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fifth Edition (WISC-V) was published in 2016, no research to date has examined its factor structure using all 10 of the primary subtests to measure intellectual ability. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to use exploratory and confirmatory…

In order to study the big data of college students' employment, this paper takes the big data of college students' employment as the premise, analyzes the current employment data by establishing a DBN model, and puts forward relevant management measures, aiming to provide scientific basis for the management of graduates' employment data. The…

This article reports on the release of AI tools that can generate text, images, music, and video with no need for complicated coding but simply in response to instructions given in natural language. AI is also raising pressing ethical questions around bias, appropriate use, and plagiarism. In the realm of education, this technology will influence…

Online Judge (OJ) systems are typically considered within programming-related courses as they yield fast and objective assessments of the code developed by the students. Such an evaluation generally provides a single decision based on a rubric, most commonly whether the submission successfully accomplished the assignment. Nevertheless, since in an…

The artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT was used to answer questions from final exams administered in two general chemistry courses, including questions with closed-response format and with open-response format. For closed-response questions, ChatGPT was very capable at identifying the concept even when the question included a great deal of…

Increased use of computer-based assessments has facilitated data collection processes that capture both response product data (i.e., correct and incorrect) and response process data (e.g., time-stamped action sequences). Evidence suggests a strong relationship between respondents' correct/incorrect responses and their problem-solving proficiency…

This dissertation examines the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms and feature engineering techniques for analyzing process data and predicting test performance. The study compares three classification approaches and identifies item-specific process features that are highly predictive of student performance. The findings suggest that…

The automated classification of examination questions based on Bloom's Taxonomy (BT) aims to assist the question setters so that high-quality question papers are produced. Most studies to automate this process adopted the machine learning approach, and only a few utilised the deep learning approach. The pre-trained contextual and non-contextual…

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics in education has transitioned from automation toward emotionally responsive learning systems through artificial emotional intelligence (AEI). While AI-driven robotics has enhanced instructional automation, AEI introduces an affective dimension by recognizing and responding to human…

Recently Prof. Howard Gardner, an outstanding psychologist in the worldwide accepted the interview from Dr. Weiwen Zhang, and talked about a wide range of MI theory and relevant fields, which mainly involved in its core ideas, current situation and future development, and also involved its application in some current hot issues, which gave us…
