q2 · i? · associational · r2
Based on process mining graphs comparing users who pass with those who do not. The authors interpret that failed users "are trying to identify and respond correctly to the activities without having absorbed the essential knowledge."
"Thus, it can be observed that users who do not pass the course tend to combine evaluation tasks with consultation of the support materials, which seems to indicate that they are trying to identify and respond correctly to the activities without having absorbed the essential knowledge."
