Noise-Filtering Enhanced Deep Cognitive Diagnosis Model for LatentSkill Discovering

Educational data mining based on student cognitive diagnosis analysis can provide an important decision basis for personalized learning tutoring of students,which has attracted extensive attention from scholars at home and abroad and has made a series of important research progress.To this end,we propose a noise-filtering enhanced deep cognitive diagno-sis method to improve the fitting ability of traditional models and obtain students’skill mastery status by mining the interaction between students and problems nonlinearly through neural networks.First,modeling complex interactions between students and problems with multidimensional features based on cognitive processing theory can enhance the interpretability of the proposed model;second,the neural network is used to predict students’learning performance,diagnose students’skill mastery and provide immediate feedback;finally,by comparing the proposed model with several baseline models,extensive experimental results on real data sets demonstrate that the proposed Finally,by comparing the proposed model with several baseline models,the extensive experimental results on the actual data set demon-strate that the proposed model not only improves the accuracy of predicting students’learning performance but also enhances the interpretability of the neurocognitive diagnostic model.

The Effectiveness of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning(MALL)Applications on the Spoken English Assessments in China’s Universities

The increased ownership of mobile phone users and the advancement of mobile applications enlarge the practicality and popularity of use for learning purposes among Chinese university students.However,even if innovative functions of these applications are increasingly reported in relevant research in the education field,little research has been in the application of spoken English language.This paper examined the effect of using a Mobile-Assisted Language Learning(MALL)application“IELTS Liulishuo”(speaking English fluently in the IELTS test)as a unit of analysis to improve the English-speaking production of university students in China.The measurement of this mobile application in its effectiveness of validity and reliability is through the use of seven dimensional criteria.Although some technical and pedagogical issues challenge adoptions of MALL in some less-developed regions in China,the study showed positive effects of using a MALL oral English assessment application characterised with Automatic Speech Recognition(ASR)system on the improvement of complexity,accuracy,and fluency of English learners in China’s colleges.

Artificial Intelligence Empowering the High-Quality Development of Education:Demands,Visions,and Paths

Learning Behavior-Aware Cognitive Diagnosis for Online Education Systems

Cognitive diagnosis,which aims to diagnose students’knowledge proficiency,is crucial for numerous online education applications,such as personalized exercise recommendation.Existing methods in this area mainly exploit students’exercising records,which ignores students’full learning process in online education systems.Besides,the latent relation of exercises with course structure and texts is still underexplored.In this paper,a learning behavior-aware cognitive diagnosis(LCD)framework is proposed for students’cognitive modeling with both learning behavior records and exercising records.The concept of LCD was first introduced to characterize students’knowledge proficiency more completely.Second,a course graph was designed to explore rich information existed in course texts and structures.Third,an interaction function was put forward to explore complex relationships between students,exercises and videos.Extensive experiments on a real-world dataset prove that LCD predicts student performance more effectively,the output of LCD is also interpretable.

A Study on Human-Computer Interaction Mechanism in an Intelligent Tutoring System

Discussion is a common and important learning process.Involvement of a virtual agent can provide adaptive support for the discussion process.Argumen-tative knowledge construction is beneficial to learners’acquisition of knowledge,but the effectiveness of argumentative scaffolding in existing studies is not consistent.Based on an intelligent discussion system,a total of 47 undergraduate students took part in the experiment and they were assigned to three different conditions:content-related plus content-independent scaffolding condition,content-related scaffolding condition,and the control condition.Under the content-related and content-independent scaffolding condition,the computer agent provided an idea from semantically different categories(content-related scaffolding)according to the automatic categorization of the current contributions,and further inquired the participants about their attitudes and reasons(content-independent scaffolding).Under the condition of content-related scaffolding condition,the virtual agent only provided semantically different viewpoints.Under the control condition,the subjects expressed their opinion independently without the participation of the virtual agent.Findings revealed that compared with the control group,when the virtual agent provided semantically different ideas(content-related scaffolding),the discussion breadth(number of categories)was improved and the subjects felt that they had a more comprehensive understanding of the problem.Compared with the content-related scaffolding condition,when the virtual agent provided semantically different ideas and further asked about the attitudes and reasons,the subjects expressed more agreement with these views,but mentioned fewer categories during the discussion.This study suggests that the content-related scaffolding can facilitate the cognitive processing effect relevant to the topic of discussion.When the content independent scaffolding is added,it can promote the argumentative processing,but may have a negative effect on the cognitive processing related to the topic discussed.

Design-Based Research on the Development and Implementation of AI Courses from the Perspective of University-Enterprise Cooperation

In recent years,China has been issuing artificial intelligence(AI)education policies to promote the deep integration between AI and education.Setting AI courses at the basic education phase can cultivate students’AI literacy and enhance the country’s science and technology competitiveness in the future.However,due to shortages of AI teachers and inadequate conditions for practice,the current AI courses in primary and secondary schools are not enough in effectiveness.In light of current problems,this study,based on the foundation of university-enterprise cooperation,integrates the“competition and education”mechanism into informal AI course design and practice.Using a design-based research paradigm,the study proposes the design framework from four dimensions:goals,themes and content,methods and steps,and evaluation,and then further refines the framework through two rounds of iterations,to provide a reference for the development and practice of AI courses.
