Identifying K-10 Students’ Learning Difficulties on Learning Kepler’s Law using Worksheet: Is It Worth?

Is It Worth Learning Translation Technology?

It Is Not worth Learning If It Is Not Remembered:

The collation, storage and retrieval of information are essential components of successful learning. Whether information is retained depends on a variety of factors, including how the information fits with an individual’s existing knowledge, the way in which information is presented, and its complexity. Some of these factors are under the direct control of the e-learning designers and developer...

Identifying Students' Inquiry Planning Using Machine Learning

This research investigates the detection of student meta-cognitive planning processes in real-time using log tracing techniques. We use fine and coarse-grained data distillation, in combination with coarse-grained text replay coding, in order to develop detectors for students’ planning of experiments in Science Assistments, an assessment and tutoring system for scientific inquiry. The goal is t...

Learning from Demonstrations: Is It Worth Estimating a Reward Function?

This paper provides a comparative study between Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL) and Apprenticeship Learning (AL). IRL and AL are two frameworks, using Markov Decision Processes (MDP), which are used for the imitation learning problem where an agent tries to learn from demonstrations of an expert. In the AL framework, the agent tries to learn the expert policy whereas in the IRL framework, ...
