Fairness in examination timetabling: Student preferences and extended formulations
Although they have been investigated for more than two decades, university examination timetabling problems are still considered challenging and interesting problems. In our study, we are investigating student preferences for the control of the time gaps between examinations; specifically, what students consider to be best for them and also fair between students. To support this, we conducted a...
متن کاملFairness and learning: an experimental examination
Over the last twenty years, experimental economists have identified a wide variety of games in which subjects display “other-regarding” behavior in violation of standard game theoretic predictions. The two primary approaches to explaining this behavior can be characterized as the “fairness hypothesis” and the “learning hypothesis.” Both hypotheses provide an adequate explanation of behavior in ...
متن کاملLearning Scorecard: Monitor and Foster Student Learning through Gamification
This paper presents the Learning Scorecard (LS), a platform that enables students to monitor their learning progress in a Higher Education course during the semester, generating the data that will also support the ongoing supervision of the class performance by the course coordinator. The LS uses gamification techniques to increase student engagement with the course. Business Intelligence best ...
متن کاملMeasuring student learning with item response theory
We investigate short-term learning from hints and feedback in a Web-based physics tutoring system. Both the skill of students and the difficulty and discrimination of items were determined by applying item response theory IRT to the first answers of students who are working on for-credit homework items in an introductory Newtonian physics course. We show that after tutoring a shifted logistic i...
متن کاملSeachange: design of online quiz questions to foster deep learning
The design of different types of quiz question will influence the extent to which formative and summative feedback is presented to students. Typically, quiz questions are considered limited in their capacity to assess higher order cognitive skills. This paper extends the notion of online quiz design by presenting examples in a WebCT learning environment in order to demonstrate a formative appro...
