A Study on Learning Factor Analysis – An Educational Data Mining Technique for Student Knowledge Modeling

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 6

Abstract

Abstract: The increase in dissemination of interactive e-learning environments has allowed the collection of large repositories of data. The new emerging field, Educational Data Mining (EDM) concerns with developing methods to discover knowledge from data collected from e-learning and educational environments. EDM can be applied in modeling user knowledge, user behavior and user experience in e-learning platforms. This paper explains how Learning Factor Analysis (LFA), a data mining method is used for evaluating cognitive model and analyzing student-tutor log data for knowledge modeling. Also illustrates how learning curves can be used for visualizing the performance of the students
