Design and Development of Algorithms for an Mp Driver Associated with a Learning Model – a Case Study

This paper deals with the design and development of algorithms for a Mathematical Pathway driver. The MP driver is a network of Finite State machines [FSM] used to transit a child through the various learning levels in Mathematics. The purpose of the algorithms is to drive the FSM. A child makes a transition from one level to another on completion of learning at that level else it remains in the same state. The FSM saves the status of the machine and retrieves this and continues from this state when the child is ready to transit. The algorithms also build databases collecting significant data that can be used for performance analysis and learning analytics. The necessary data structures and databases are also designed. The MP driver forms the core component of the learning model and provides data to many other components. Design and development of algorithms using Computer based techniques to optimise learning is a novel approach.
