We analyze learning data of an e-assessment platform for an introductory mathematical statistics course, more specifically the time of the day when students learn. We propose statistical models to predict students' success and to describe…

In observational studies the assignment of units to treatments is not under control. Consequently, the estimation and comparison of treatment effects based on the empirical distribution of the responses can be biased since the units exposed…

Technology applied in education can provide great benefits and overcome challenges by facilitating access to learning objects anywhere and anytime. However, technology alone is not enough, since it requires suitable planning and learning…

In order to track and comprehend the academic achievement of students, both private and public educational institutions devote a significant amount of resources and labour. One of the difficult issues that institutes deal with on a regular…

This paper examines the effects of daily exercise time on the academic performance of junior high school students in China, with an attempt to figure out the most appropriate daily exercise time for students from the perspective of…

The present article is an empirical study that investigates the learning situation of linear algebra. Research was performed among 60 science and engineering students from different universities in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hubei, and Shandong who…

In this paper, we analyse how learning is measured and optimized in Educational Recommender Systems (ERS). In particular, we examine the target metrics and evaluation methods used in the existing ERS research, with a particular focus on the…

This study aims to determine what type of student characteristic most considered by teachers in primary school and their influence on student learning achievement. For this purpose, 37 class teachers of grade 4th to 6th from seven primary…

We study letter grading schemes, which are routinely employed for evaluating student performance. Typically, a numerical score obtained via one or more evaluations is converted into a letter grade (e.g., A+, B-, etc.) by associating a…

In today's world technology comprises a large aspect of our lives so this study aimed to investigate if using computers and digital tools are better than traditional methods like using textbooks and worksheets for learning math. This study…

A close look at students' written work on examinations offers a wealth of information about their performance, their knowledge of the subject, their strengths, weaknesses and misconceptions, and their overall level of mathematical skills…

Educational stakeholders are often particularly interested in sparse, delayed student outcomes, like end-of-year statewide exams. The rare occurrence of such assessments makes it harder to identify students likely to fail such assessments,…

Assessments such as standardized tests and teacher evaluations of students' classroom participation are central elements of most educational systems. Assessments inform the student, parent, teacher, and school about the student learning…

The paper "Evaluation of Colorado Learning Attitudes about Science Survey" [1] proposes a new, much shorter, version of the CLASS based on standard factor analysis. In this comment we explain why we believe the analysis that is used is…

Curriculum learning is a training strategy that sorts the training examples by some measure of their difficulty and gradually exposes them to the learner to improve the network performance. Motivated by our insights from implicit curriculum…

This paper shows that the timing of monetary transfers to low-income families affects students' cognitive performance on high-stakes standardized tests. We combine administrative records from the world's largest conditional cash transfer…

If students have a broad spectrum of study skills, learning will likely be positively affected, since they can adapt the way they learn in different situations. Such study skills can be learned in for example learning-to-learn courses.…

Numerous strategies have been adopted in order to make the process of learning simple, efficient and within less amount of time.. Classroom learning is slowly replaced by E-learning and M- learning. These techniques involve the usage of…

Subjective teacher evaluations play a key role in shaping students' educational trajectories. Previous studies have shown that students of low socioeconomic status (SES) receive worse subjective evaluations than their high SES peers, even…

Recent automatic curriculum learning algorithms, and in particular Teacher-Student algorithms, rely on the notion of learning progress, making the assumption that the good next tasks are the ones on which the learner is making the fastest…
