In such situations, communication dynamics can be complex as team discourse segments can happen in parallel at different locations of the physical space with varied team member configurations. This can make it hard for teachers to assess the effectiveness of teamwork and for students to reflect on their own experiences. To address this problem, we propose METS (Multimodal Embodied Teamwork Signature), a method to model team dialogue content in combination with spatial and temporal data to generate a signature of embodied teamwork. We present a study in the context of a highly dynamic healthcare team simulation space where students can freely move. We illustrate how signatures of embodied teamwork can help to identify key differences between high and low performing teams: i) across the whole learning session; ii) at different phases of learning sessions; and iii) at particular spaces of interest in the learning space.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131176551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Non-cognitive interventions often attempt to influence students’ mindset, motivation, or metacognitive reflection to impact learning behaviors and outcomes. In the current paper, we analyze data from five experiments, involving seven treatment conditions embedded in mastery-based learning activities hosted on a computer-assisted learning platform focused on middle school mathematics. Each treatment condition embodied a specific non-cognitive theoretical perspective. Over seven school years, 20,472 students participated in the experiments. We estimated the effects of each treatment condition on students’ response time, hint usage, likelihood of mastering knowledge components, learning efficiency, and post-tests performance. Our analyses reveal a mix of both positive and negative treatment effects on student learning behaviors and performance. Few interventions impacted learning as assessed by the post-tests. These findings highlight the difficulty in positively influencing student learning behaviors and outcomes using non-cognitive interventions.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134152197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evaluating a written product requires scorers who manually examine the existence of rhetorical categories, which is a time-consuming task. Machine Learning (ML) approaches have the potential to alleviate this challenge. As a result, several attempts have been made in the literature to automate the identification of rhetorical categories using Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST). However, RST do not provide information regarding students’ cognitive level, which motivates the use of Bloom’s Taxonomy. Therefore, in this research we propose to: i) investigate the extent to which classification of rhetorical categories can be automated based on Bloom’s taxonomy by comparing the traditional ML classifiers with the pre-trained language model BERT, ii) explore the associations between rhetorical categories and writing performance. Our results showed that BERT model outperformed the traditional ML-based classifiers with 18% better accuracy, indicating it can be used in future analytics tool. Moreover, we found a statistical difference between the associations of rhetorical categories in low-achiever, medium-achiever and high-achiever groups which implies that rhetorical categories can be predictive of writing performance.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132568106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To better understand the role of shared visual attention during CPS, we collected eye gaze data from 279 individuals solving computer-based physics puzzles while in teams of three. We converted eye gaze into discrete screen locations and quantified team-level gaze dynamics using recurrence quantification analysis (RQA). Specifically, we used a centroid-based auto-RQA approach, a pairwise team member cross-RQAs approach, and a multi-dimensional RQA approach to quantify team-level eye gaze dynamics from the eye gaze data of team members. We find that teams differing in composition based on prior task knowledge, gender, and race show few differences in team-level eye gaze dynamics. We also find that RQA metrics of team-level eye gaze dynamics were predictive of task success (all ps < .001). However, the same metrics showed different patterns of feature importance depending on predictive model and RQA type, suggesting some redundancy in task-relevant information. These findings signify that team-level eye gaze dynamics play an important role in CPS and that different forms of RQA pick up on unique aspects of shared attention between team-members.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130729247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within these courses, students are often required to compose, submit, and peer review written essays, providing a valuable pedagogical experience for the student and a wealth of natural language data for the educational researcher. However, the scores provided by peers do not always reflect the actual quality of the text, generating questions about the reliability and validity of the scores. This study evaluates methods to increase the reliability of MOOC peer-review ratings through a series of validation tests on peer-reviewed essays. Reliability of reviewers was based on correlations between text length and essay quality. Raters were pruned based on score variance and the lexical diversity observed in their comments to create sub-sets of raters. Each subset was then used as training data to finetune distilBERT large language models to automatically score essay quality as a measure of validation. The accuracy of each language model for each subset was evaluated. We find that training language models on data subsets produced by more reliable raters based on a combination of score variance and lexical diversity produce more accurate essay scoring models. The approach developed in this study should allow for enhanced reliability of peer-reviewed scoring in MOOCS affording greater credibility within the systems.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132068801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, climate change education has more often focused on scientific facts and statistics at a global scale than experiences at personal and local scales. To understand how to frame climate change education, I turn to youth-created videos on TikTok—a video-sharing, social media platform. Semantic network analysis of hashtags related to climate change reveals multifaceted, intertwining discourse around awareness of climate change consequences, call for action to reduce human impacts on natural systems, and environmental activism. I further explore how youth integrate personal, lived experiences data into climate change discussions. A higher usage of second-person perspective (\"you\"; i.e., addressing the audience), prosocial and agency words, and negative messaging tone are associated with higher odds of a video integrating lived experiences. These findings illustrate the platform’s affordances: In communicating to a broad audience, youth take on agency and pro-social stances and express emotions to relate to viewers and situate their content. Findings suggest the utility of learning analytics to explore youth’s perspectives and provide insights to frame climate change education in ways that elevate lived experiences.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120940296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is therefore important to understand whether and how such algorithms might create inequalities or amplify existing biases. In this paper, we analyze the fairness of models which use behavioral data to identify at-risk students and suggest two novel pre-processing approaches for bias mitigation. Based on the concept of intersectionality, the first approach involves intelligent oversampling on combinations of demographic attributes. The second approach does not require any knowledge of demographic attributes and is based on the assumption that such attributes are a (noisy) proxy for student behavior. We hence propose to directly oversample different types of behaviors identified in a cluster analysis. We evaluate our approaches on data from (i) an open-ended learning environment and (ii) a flipped classroom course. Our results show that both approaches can mitigate model bias. Directly oversampling on behavior is a valuable alternative, when demographic metadata is not available.

In this study, we produce and evaluate the first machine-learned predictions of student course load ratings and generalize our model to the full 10,000 course catalog of a large public university. We then retrospectively analyze longitudinal differences in the semester load of student course selections throughout their degree. CLA by semester shows that a student’s first semester at the university is among their highest load semesters, as opposed to a credit hour-based analysis, which would indicate it is among their lowest. Investigating what role predicted course load may play in program retention, we find that students who maintain a semester load that is low as measured by credit hours but high as measured by CLA are more likely to leave their program of study. This discrepancy in course load is particularly pertinent in STEM and associated with high prerequisite courses.

This work focuses on the context of online and blended learning and the use case of student success prediction models. We use a pairwise study design, enabling us to investigate controlled differences between pairs of courses. Our analyses cover five course pairs that differ in one educationally relevant aspect and two popular instance-based explainable AI methods (LIME and SHAP). We quantitatively compare the distances between the explanations across courses and methods. We then validate the explanations of LIME and SHAP with 26 semi-structured interviews of university-level educators regarding which features they believe contribute most to student success, which explanations they trust most, and how they could transform these insights into actionable course design decisions. Our results show that quantitatively, explainers significantly disagree with each other about what is important, and qualitatively, experts themselves do not agree on which explanations are most trustworthy.

Unknown unknowns include the students for which the model is highly confident in its predictions, but is actually wrong. Therefore, we cannot solely rely on the model’s confidence when evaluating the predictions quality. We first introduce a framework for the identification and characterization of unknown unknowns.
