Adaptive curriculum sequencing (ACS) is still a challenge in the adaptive learning field. ACS is a NP-hard problem especially considering the several constraints of the student and the learning material when selecting a sequence from repositories where several sequences could be chosen. Therefore, this has stimulated several researchers to use evolutionary approaches in the search for satisfactory solutions. This work explores the use of an adaptation of the prey-predator algorithm for the ACS problem. Pedagogical experiments with a real student dataset and convergence experiments with a synthetic dataset have shown that the proposed solution is suitable for the problem, although it is a solution not yet explored in the adaptive learning literature.
适应性课程排序仍然是适应性学习领域的一个挑战。ACS是一个np困难问题,特别是考虑到学生和学习材料的几个约束,当从可以选择多个序列的存储库中选择一个序列时。因此,这刺激了一些研究人员使用进化方法来寻找令人满意的解决方案。这项工作探索了对ACS问题的捕食者-捕食者算法的适应。使用真实学生数据集的教学实验和使用合成数据集的收敛实验表明,所提出的解决方案适用于该问题,尽管它是自适应学习文献中尚未探索的解决方案。

This study aimed to gain insights into the differences in perceptions of blog writing of two types of writers (i.e., digital natives [DNs] vs. digital immigrants [DIs]). The study focused on the generational literature and Web 2.0 as an online writing platform, investigating the generational differences in DN and DI writers' perceptions on a blog-based writing platform. The “WritingGen” blog was developed for this study to provide a web-based writing place to facilitate writers' writing and editing practices. An empirical study was conducted involving 34 Taiwanese blog writers with five hypotheses to be verified. Data were analyzed using independent samples t tests and logistic regression. The results revealed that the DN writers have significantly more positive attitudes toward blog writing, higher frequencies in blog-based writing behavior, perceived higher satisfaction, and higher knowledge acquisition than the DI writers. Based on these findings, pedagogical implications are provided.

From random interviews of mathematics teachers, the researchers are conscious that students have difficulties in solving problems regarding compound body volume measurement. The researchers found the main factor involved in the difficulties was incomplete spatial concepts. Augmented reality (AR), which is a kind of educational technology, has been widely applied in the educational field in recent years. AR provides two- or three-dimensional objects and/or information and interaction with them. These characteristics can compensate for the insufficient characterization of compound-body volume in traditional education environments. The paper studies evaluation in utilizing free augmented reality to learn volumetric measurement of compound bodies to complete spatial concepts as well as improve the students' learning performance. The finding suggests that the positive impact on visualization and interaction as well as attitude lead students to be more engaged in learning activities with less cognitive effort, resulting in better learning performance.
从对数学教师的随机访谈中,研究者发现学生在解决复合体体积测量的问题上存在困难。研究人员发现,造成这些困难的主要因素是不完整的空间概念。增强现实(AR)作为一种教育技术,近年来在教育领域得到了广泛的应用。AR提供二维或三维物体和/或信息以及与它们的交互。这些特征可以弥补传统教育环境中对复体体积表征的不足。本文研究了利用自由增强现实学习复合物体的体积测量来完成空间概念,提高学生学习成绩的评价。研究结果表明,视觉化和互动以及态度的积极影响使学生以较少的认知努力更多地参与到学习活动中,从而获得更好的学习成绩。

Studies on gender differences in mobile English learning are in their initial stages. College English IV, designed by a number of professors and engineers in a university in China, serves as a mobile English learning platform. This study aims to determine gender differences in cognitive loads, attitudes, and academic achievements in English language learning assisted with this mobile English learning platform. Through a mixed research design, 79 randomly selected participants join the research, together with interviews and posts to collect qualitative data. Cognitive loads, attitudes, and academic achievements are measured through related scales to collect quantitative data. It is concluded that there are significant gender differences in cognitive loads, attitudes, and academic achievements in English language learning assisted with the mobile learning platform. Future research on gender differences in mobile English learning should also examine relationships between gender differences, learner motivation, achievement goals, and learning outcomes.

E-learning plays a significant role in educating large number of students. In the delivery of e-learning material, automatic e-assessment has been applied only to some extent in the case of free response answers in highly technical diagrams in domains like software engineering, electronics, etc., where there is a great scope of imagination and wide variations in answers. Therefore, the automatic assessment of diagrammatic answers is a challenging task. In this article, algorithms that compute the syntactic and semantic similarities of nodes to fulfill the objective of automatic assessment of use-case diagrams are described. To illustrate the performance of these algorithms, students' use-case diagrams are matched with model use-case diagram. Results from 13,749 labels of 445 student answers based on 14 different scenarios are analyzed to provide quantitative and qualitative feedback. No comparable study has been reported by any other label matching algorithms before in the research literature.
电子学习在教育大量学生方面发挥着重要作用。在电子学习材料的交付中,自动电子评估仅在软件工程、电子等领域的高度技术性图表的自由响应答案的情况下得到了一定程度的应用,这些领域的答案具有很大的想象力和广泛的变化。因此,图表式答案的自动评估是一项具有挑战性的任务。在本文中,描述了计算节点的语法和语义相似性以实现用例图自动评估目标的算法。为了说明这些算法的性能,学生的用例图与模型用例图相匹配。对14种不同场景的445个学生答案的13749个标签的结果进行分析,提供定量和定性的反馈。在之前的研究文献中,没有任何其他标签匹配算法的可比研究报告。

The increasing use of the Learning Management Systems (LMSs) is making available an ever-growing, volume of data from interactions between teachers and students. This study aimed to develop a model capable of predicting students' academic performance based on indicators of their self-regulated behavior in LMSs. To accomplish this goal, the authors analyzed behavioral data from an LMS platform used in a public University for distance learning courses, collected during a period of seven years. With this data, they developed, evaluated, and compared predictive models using four algorithms: Decision Tree (CART), Logistic Regression, SVM, and Naïve Bayes. The Logistic Regression model yielded the best results in predicting students' academic performance, being able to do so with an accuracy rate of 0.893 and an area under the ROC curve of 0.9574. Finally, they conceived and implemented a dashboard-like interface intended to present the predictions in a user-friendly way to tutors and teachers, so they could use it as a tool to help monitor their students' learning process.
越来越多地使用学习管理系统(lms),使教师和学生之间互动的数据量不断增加。本研究旨在建立一个基于lms学生自我调节行为指标的学习成绩预测模型。为了实现这一目标,作者分析了一所公立大学远程学习课程中使用的LMS平台在七年期间收集的行为数据。根据这些数据,他们使用四种算法开发、评估和比较预测模型:决策树(CART)、逻辑回归、支持向量机和Naïve贝叶斯。Logistic回归模型对学生学业成绩的预测效果最好,准确率为0.893,ROC曲线下面积为0.9574。最后,他们构思并实现了一个类似仪表板的界面,旨在以一种用户友好的方式将预测呈现给导师和老师,这样他们就可以将其作为一种工具来帮助监控学生的学习过程。

The rapid growth of e-learning around the globe is inspiring various academic institutions to adopt it. Uptake is motivated by convincing benefits such as flexibility, accessibility and the management of course delivery. In fact, academic institutions place great emphasis on e-learning and are investing significantly in information technology infrastructures. However, in spite of this effort and investment, it seems that instructors and students do not always fully benefit from the learning technology and more often learning management systems (LMSs) remain underutilized. Thus, this study adopts the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) to study how people accept and use the Blackboard system. The data were analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) techniques to test the hypothesized research model. The empirical results found that technical support is fundamental in determining the acceptance and use of e-learning systems. The findings of the study may help to provide insights into a better approach to promote e-learning acceptance.
全球范围内电子学习的快速发展正激励着各种学术机构采用它。学习的动机是令人信服的好处,如灵活性、可访问性和课程交付的管理。事实上,学术机构非常重视电子学习,并在信息技术基础设施方面进行了大量投资。然而,尽管付出了这些努力和投资,教师和学生似乎并不总是能从学习技术中充分受益,更经常的是学习管理系统(lms)仍未得到充分利用。因此,本研究采用技术接受与使用统一理论(UTAUT)来研究人们如何接受和使用Blackboard系统。使用结构方程建模(SEM)技术对数据进行分析,以检验假设的研究模型。实证结果发现,技术支持是决定接受和使用电子学习系统的基础。这项研究的结果可能有助于提供更好的方法来促进电子学习的接受。

This article focuses on comparing two e-learning strategies (cooperative versus collaborative) in terms of developing preservice teachers' skills in designing one of the modern Web 2.0 assessment tools (i.e., e-portfolio) and their effects on product quality and achievement motivation towards designing e-portfolio. After the experiment involving 80 students from the third level at the faculty of education, King Faisal University in Saudi Arabia, during the first semester of the school year 2017/2018, a questionnaire on achievement motivation and a product quality assessment card were used. The results show no significant difference between the two e-learning strategies regarding students' achievement motivation. On the other hand, there is a significant difference in product quality in favor of cooperative e-learning. The study highlights social-network based e-learning strategies of developing preservice teachers' teaching and evaluating skills that they need to apply in the new digital era.

Extroversion and introversion are two of the personality variables mentioned in the context of learning and achievements. The present article examines the performance of students in a distance learning environment, focusing on the issue of the distinct effect of specific personality attributes (in this case, extroversion and introversion). The study included 171 respondents divided into three research groups. Each group received a different form of feedback – content feedback, effort feedback and ability feedback. Significant differences were found between the groups that received ability or effort feedback and the group that received only content feedback. Relationships were found between extroversion-introversion and the changes that occurred in motivation and achievements. It seems that extroverts benefited considerably from ability and effort feedback rather than content feedback.
外向和内向是在学习和成就的背景下提到的两个人格变量。本文考察了学生在远程学习环境中的表现,重点关注特定人格属性(在本例中为外向和内向)的明显影响。这项研究包括171名被调查者,他们被分为三个研究组。每一组都收到了不同形式的反馈——内容反馈、努力反馈和能力反馈。在接受能力或努力反馈的组和只接受内容反馈的组之间发现了显著的差异。研究发现,外向与内向之间的关系与动机和成就方面的变化有关。外向的人似乎从能力和努力反馈而不是内容反馈中获益颇多。
