WebLab-Deusto is a learning environment used at the University of Deusto as the landing platform to several remote laboratories currently used in high school and university level courses. One of these remote labs is VISIR, a remote electricity kit that can be used in teaching DC and AC circuits. As happens in any openended educational environment, it is difficult to assess the learning effects ...

In recent years, it has become clear that educational data mining methods can play a positive role in refining the content of intelligent tutoring systems. In particular, efforts to determine which content is more and less effective at promoting learning can help improve tutoring systems by identifying ineffective content and cycling it out of the system. Analysis of the learning value of conte...

Researchers of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) and Educational Data Mining (EDM) have focused increasing attention on predicting students’ long-term retention performance as well as attempting to find effective methods to help improve student knowledge retention. Wang and Beck proposed a system which allows ITS to strive for student long-term mastery learning. This paper describes our implem...

Educational environment produces a lot of information related with many aspects, besides the traditional system, the growth of online educative systems and the called e-learning, have increased the amount of data available for its analysis. Data Mining offers different techniques for processing information in order to discover patterns that can be used for obtaining knowledge which helps improv...

Our article introduces the Journal of Educational Data Mining’s Special Issue on Educational Data Mining on Motivation, Metacognition, and Self-Regulated Learning. We outline general research challenges for data mining researchers who conduct investigations in these areas, the potential of EDM to advance research in this area, and issues in validating findings generated by EDM.
