In this paper, syllabus visualization tool based on standard curriculum is proposed. To visualize the difference of syllabuses, the proposed tool uses correspondence analysis. Using the proposed tool, we can know the relationship between syllabuses and standard curriculum (CS2013).
The correcting process for strokes extracted from Chinese characters is the necessary step to extract the errors of writing errors automatically. Visualization of extracted strokes is the prerequisite for manual correction. Therefore, visualization and adaptive correction methods are proposed. To reduce the cognitive burden of correcting, color, brightness, saturation and order number is comprehensively...
Higher Education Institutions store a sizable amount of data, including student records and the structure of a degree curriculum. This paper focuses on the problem of identifying how closely students follow the recommended order of the courses in a degree curriculum, and to what extent their performance is affected by the order they actually adopt. It addresses this problem by applying techniques...
The volume of academic paper submissions and publications is growing at an ever increasing rate. While this flood of research promises progress in various fields, the sheer volume of output inherently increases the amount of noise. We present a system to automatically separate papers with a high from those with a low likelihood of gaining citations as a means to quickly find high impact, high quality...
The score in art exam, part of College entrance examination, is very useful and helpful. Thanks to the exam management system we got the data easily, and there are huge amount of data accumulated. We analyzed the data and visualize the data through Cluster Analysis and Correlation Analysis. And get the relationship between number of students and age, subject, position. Finally we visualize the analyzed...
In recent decades, experts have presented a range of teaching methods and techniques which should increase the learning effectiveness. Naturally, no learning process is universal and reliable at the same time, and suitable for everyone and in every situation. Concept mapping is a method based on findings in cognitive psychology. We investigated how the learning process and effectiveness can be influenced...
It is important for students to solve problems with specific requirements in the programming teaching. Our teaching system is a Moodle-based interactive teaching platform for C programming. Its online judging system can grade students code automatically. It plays an extremely important role in programming language teaching. This paper is devoted to optimizing and improving the system. We firstly analyze...
Educational data is in abundance due the nature of education in the 21st century where a significant amount of education occurs online through the advent of digital learning. There is an increase in the use of Learning Management Systems (LMS) to provide education without boundaries, and these systems hold large amounts of data. Educational data mining is the process of tapping into this rich educational...
Information systems of educational organizations often represent a potential well of useful information which can be discovered and interpreted by using specific methods. Exam results in particular are commonly used as a single-use measure of individual knowledge states, after which they are archived and subsequently never used again. Our approach suggests using past exam results as a rich data source...
Gamification has achieved many positive outcomes in many fields, ranging from economics to education. This method consists in applying game concepts, mechanics and aesthetics in non-gaming applications, aiming to improve a person or group's engagement and commitment to perform a task. These concepts can range from extrinsic motivators as points, levels, leaderboards and achievements, to intrinsic...
Educational environments have added the software use to support teaching activities. In distance learning courses it's common to store large amounts of data, which detail record the activities developed by the students. Those data can be used by professionals for the discovery of informations that can help teachers and students to manage and monitor the teaching-learning process. This work aims to...
Providing the educational community with tools to analyze educational processes may result in a more effective education. Applying Data Mining techniques to educational data results in information on educational settings which, however, comprehend an extensive set of symbolic patterns that are usually difficult to understand. Visualization, due to its potential to display large quantities of data,...
In this paper, we present the vision of an open source learning analytics platform, able to harvest data from different sources, including e-learning platforms and environments, registrar's information systems, alumni systems, etc., so as to provide all stakeholders with the necessary functionality to make decisions on the learning process. The platform's architecture is modular, allowing the introduction...
Since there aren't successful Visualization of Data Mining cases in the Exit-Entry system, this paper proposes a new more perfect system. The paper establishes the system according to the characteristic of the data. The system mines the rules and visual results of the Exit-Entry data to realize the genuine Visualization of Data Mining.
Archives of computer-mediated communication (CMC) could be valuable organizational resources. This paper describes an automatic approach that facilitates users' integrated understanding of discussion and behavior of CMC participants. In the presented parallel learning framework the global population is divided into some subpopulations, each assigned to a distinct processor. Each subpopulation consists...
A modeling approach for learning processes is utilized to process, evaluate and refine them. A formerly-developed concept called storyboarding has been applied at Tokyo Denki University (TDU) to model the various curricula for students to progress in their studies. Along with this particular storyboard, we developed a data mining technology to estimate chances for success for the students following...
In this paper we describe the long term evaluation of the Website Exploration Tool (WET), an exploratory system for visualising web data, through the assessment of two Virtual Learning Environments (VLE). VLEs provide log files that can be studied with web mining techniques to understand the behaviour of the students and consequently improve the pedagogy. However, statistical metrics are not always...
Fundamental concepts of programming and data structures are usually taught with graphical tools such as simulations and animations. Conflictive animations have been proposed to improve students' understanding of programming concepts. In conflictive animations, errors are introduced in the animations to motivate students to constantly check their knowledge against what is being animated. We have implemented...
Using the tablet PC as a lecturing device offers the instructor a new set of tools upon which their teaching can be based. Since the general student body consists of many different types of learning styles, these new tools can provide a means to reach a wider range of students than the traditional blackboard-based lectures. However, as a first step towards assessing the effectiveness of the tablet...
The paper is focused on modeling, processing, evaluating and refining processes with humans involved like (not only, but also e-) learning. A formerly developed concept called storyboarding has been applied at Tokyo Denki University (TDU) to model the various ways to study at this university. Along with this storyboard, we developed a Data Mining Technology to estimate success chances of curricula...
