Analyzing Fine-Grained Skill Models Using Bayesian And Mixed Effect Methods
We compare the two results to identify benefits and drawbacks of either method and to find out if the two results agree. We report that both methods showed compelling similarity…

Coordinating Networked Learning Activities With A General-Purpose Interface
Two approaches to making a Tuple Space-based computer architecture for connectivity into an inviting environment for the generation and creation of novel coordinated activities were attempted. The more satisfactory approach…

Developing Fine-Grained Transfer Models In The ASSISTment System
In this article, we describe our attempt to create a fine-grained transfer model for 8th grade math based on the skills needed to take the Math MCAS exam and how…

Graphical Manipulation of Evidence in Structured Arguments
A semiautomated approach to evidential reasoning uses template-based structured argumentation. Graphical depictions convey lines of reasoning, from evidence through to conclusions.

Using genome context data to identify specific types of functional associations in pathway/genome databases
Genome-context methods have proved useful in providing clues about functional annotations for many proteins. They detect many biological types of functional associations, and do not identify which type of functional…
