q1 i? Corbett and Anderson accomplished adding individualization to their knowledge tracing model in their original articles, but with mixed results. → Pardos 2010

Evidence¶

Pardos 2010¶

Pardos, Z.A., Heffernan, N.T. (2010). Modeling Individualization in a Bayesian Networks Implementation of Knowledge Tracing. UMAP 2010, Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 6075. Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-13470-8_24

q1 · i? · design · r2

This is the article's characterization of prior work, citing Corbett and Anderson (1995) and Corbett and Bhatnagar (1997). The article attributes mixed results to the original individualization attempts; the underlying studies' designs are not described here.

"Corbett and Anderson, in their original articles, were interested in trying to add individualization to their model which they accomplished but with mixed results."

Related Claims¶

• The survey reports, citing Pavlik et al., that no single knowledge tracing model was always the best, and that a better model must consider multiple student features and the learning context. — the general claim this finding bears on, with the studies behind it
• Standard knowledge tracing models in use do not allow individual learning rates or individualized initial knowledge — related
