Heffernan, Neil T.; Ostrow, Korinn S.; Kelly, Kim; Selent, Douglas; Van Inwegen, Eric G.; Xiong, Xiaolu; Williams, Joseph Jay – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2016
Due to substantial scientific and practical progress, learning technologies can effectively adapt to the characteristics and needs of students. This article considers how learning technologies can adapt over time by crowdsourcing contributions from teachers and students--explanations, feedback, and other pedagogical interactions. Considering the…

Heffernan, Neil T.; Heffernan, Cristina Lindquist – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2014
The ASSISTments project is an ecosystem of a few hundred teachers, a platform, and researchers working together. Development professionals help train teachers and get teachers to participate in studies. The platform and these teachers help researchers (sometimes explicitly and sometimes implicitly) simply by using content the teacher selects. The…

Baker, Ryan S. J. D.; Goldstein, Adam B.; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2011
Intelligent tutors have become increasingly accurate at detecting whether a student knows a skill, or knowledge component (KC), at a given time. However, current student models do not tell us exactly at which point a KC is learned. In this paper, we present a machine-learned model that assesses the probability that a student learned a KC at a…

Gong, Yue; Beck, Joseph E.; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2011
Student modeling is a fundamental concept applicable to a variety of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS). However, there is not a lot of practical guidance on how to construct and train such models. This paper compares two approaches for student modeling, Knowledge Tracing (KT) and Performance Factors Analysis (PFA), by evaluating their predictive…

Pardos, Zachary A.; Dailey, Matthew D.; Heffernan, Neil T. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2011
The well established, gold standard approach to finding out what works in education research is to run a randomized controlled trial (RCT) using a standard pre-test and post-test design. RCTs have been used in the intelligent tutoring community for decades to determine which questions and tutorial feedback work best. Practically speaking, however,…
