Predicting the Effects of Skill Model Changes on Student Progress
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a methodology for simulating student behavior to predict the effects of skill-learning parameter changes on system behavior. Validation against data collected after the changes were made shows that accurate predictions can be made despite a different cohort of students. Furthermore, deviations from the predictions may help explain unexpected effects of other changes made to the tutoring system.

The goal of predicting student behavior on the immediate next action has been investigated by researchers for many years. However, a fair question is whether this research question is worth all of the attention it has received. This paper investigates predicting student performance after a delay of 5 to 10 days, to determine whether, and when, the student will retain the material seen. Although...
