The author has deeply analyzed and explored the difference of learning by APPs and traditional classroom learning with the background of Constructivism. Learning by APPs and traditional classroom learning have their prospective advantages and disadvantages on learning time,space, contents, methods, efficiency and supervision. Learners can make full use of educational APPs, combining APPs with traditional classroom learning to realize blending learning and achieve high-efficiency.展开更多

The method of predicting student performance is to analyze and predict the student’s final performance by collecting demographic data such as the student’s gender, age, and highest education level, and clickstream data generated when students interact with VLE in different types of specific courses, which are widely used in online education platforms. This article proposes a model to predict student performance via Attention-based Multi-layer LSTM (AML), which combines student demographic data and clickstream data for comprehensive analysis. We hope that we can obtain a higher prediction accuracy as soon as possible to provide timely intervention. The results show that the proposed model can improve the accuracy of 0.52% - 0.85% and the F1 score of 0.89% - 2.30% on the four-class classification task as well as the accuracy of 0.15% - 0.97% and the F1 score of 0.21% - 2.77% on the binary classification task from week 5 to week 25.展开更多
