Description¶
A machine-learning student modeling middleware that records "the learning scene itself, the usage of mouse and keyboard, and the period of time that the learning scene is active" as three evidence nodes and processes them with combined predictive and diagnostic reasoning in a Bayesian network. Conditional probability table values were assigned manually in parallel to simulation results with virtual students. Threshold labels for mouse–keyboard use and playtimes were initialized with four students and then dynamically updated with every student processed, addressing concept drift.
Design Implications¶
Context¶
Requirements¶
- Conditional probability table values assigned (manually, informed by simulation); threshold values for evidence-node labeling initialized and dynamically updated
Constraints¶
- Only two of the four FSLSM dimensions (visual/verbal, active/reflective) were modeled, because the number of learning scenes grows exponentially with more dimensions
Target Learners¶
- undergraduate and graduate EFL students at university preparatory level
Learning Goals¶
- diagnosing individual learning styles to adapt EFL grammar content presentation
Claims¶
- Bayesian Diagnosis 41 54 Percent [+M]
- Verbal Active Learner Diagnosis Rates [+M]
- Dynamic belief networks provide a theoretically-sound way to update the student model [+W]
