Improving the student learning experience through dialogic feed-forward assessment

Improving the Student Learning Experience for SQL Using Automatic Marking

An online interactive learning environment which offers immediate feedback to student learning SQL was constructed. This has supported the gathering of interesting statistics on student behaviour. Changes to the environment targeted at improving student behaviour can be made, and the impact of these changes measured statistically on real students. This paper considers a cycle through measuring ...

Improving Higher Education Student Learning through a Table of Learning

Web-based or “online” learning commonly known as e-Learning which makes use of internet technologies has been widely used by many education institutions around the globe. Higher education institutions have been using Learning Management system (LMS) as a part of their campus-based and distance teaching. To date, very little research has been carried out to investigate whether the uses of LMS ac...

Parsimonious learning feed-forward control

We introduce the Learning Feed-Forward Control configuration. In this configuration, a B-spline neural network is contained, which suffers from the curse of dimensionality. We propose a method to avoid the occurrence of this problem. 1 Introduction In order to design a conventional feedback controller, like a state-feedback controller, detailed knowledge of the process under control is required...
