A novel approach for smart curriculum sequencing based on HSA evolutionary computation

Abstract

In this paper, an evolutionary algorithm is applied to tackle Intelligent Curriculum Sequencing issue. The purpose is to align educational technology, for instance, curriculum sequence to: students' characteristics and subject-matter coherence. The algorithm considers both technical and pedagogical point of view. Results show that the proposed Evolutionary Computation Search Algorithm could find optimal learning sequences, under a set of constraints, within a reasonable amount of iterations.
