Modeling Students' Memory for Application in Adaptive Educational Systems

نویسنده

  • Radek Pelánek
چکیده

Human memory has been thoroughly studied and modeled in psychology, but mainly in laboratory setting under simplified conditions. For application in practical adaptive educational systems we need simple and robust models which can cope with aspects like varied prior knowledge or multiplechoice questions. We discuss and evaluate several models of this type. We show that using the extensive data sets collected by online educational systems it is possible to build well calibrated models and get interesting insight, which can be used for improvement of adaptive educational systems.

Personalized Web - Based Learning 2 . 0

Educational content was among the first appearing on the Web. This applies not only for the " Read Web " presented as the Web 1.0, but also for the Adaptive Web with main concern on the personalization to each learner. Even though this is not true for the Social Web, or the Web 2.0, educational domain gets in the " Read-Write Web " too. This paper presents selected aspects of web-based educatio...

Fuzzy relations, Possibility theory, Measures of uncertainty, Mathematical modeling.

A central aim of educational research in the area of mathematical modeling and applications is to recognize the attainment level of students at defined states of the modeling process. In this paper, we introduce principles of fuzzy sets theory and possibility theory to describe the process of mathematical modeling in the classroom. The main stages of the modeling process are represented as fuzz...

Student Models for Prior Knowledge Estimation

Intelligent behavior of adaptive educational systems is based on student models. Most research in student modeling focuses on student learning (acquisition of skills). We focus on prior knowledge, which gets much less attention in modeling and yet can be highly varied and have important consequences for the use of educational systems. We describe several models for prior knowledge estimation – ...
