Predicting Students’ Performance and Problem Solving Behavior from iList Log Data

چکیده
In this paper, we analyze data gathered from students’ interactions with iList, an intelligent tutoring system that teaches linked lists to computer science (CS) undergraduates. A number of features have been extracted from the log files which were used to; a) build predictive models of students’ performance, b) analyze temporal aspects of students’ problem solving behavior. Our results suggest that it is possible to build predictive models of performance with an accuracy of 87% by using logistic regression. The results also show that it is more likely a student will perform a step correctly if s/he spends more time on it.

I learn from you, you learn from me: How to make iList learn from students
We developed a new model for iList, our system that helps students learn linked list. The model is automatically extracted from past student data, and allows iList to track students’ problem-solving behavior in order to provide targeted feedback. We evaluated the new model both intrinsically and extrinsically. We show that the model can match most student actions after a relatively small sequen...

متن کاملPredicting Correctness of Problem Solving from Low-level Log Data in Intelligent Tutoring Systems
This paper proposes a learning based method that can automatically determine how likely a student is to give a correct answer to a problem in an intelligent tutoring system. Only log files that record students’ actions with the system are used to train the model, therefore the modeling process doesn’t require expert knowledge for identifying domain specific skills that are needed to solve the p...
