Using modern informatics tools for smart decision-making in education process
Journal Title: European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
We proposed the description of the process of evolution of the opinion of the group caused by the new information analysed. We have used the Bayesian method of the statistical inference. We found the procedure to study the change of the opinion of each individual by the influence of communication with other members of the group. We analyse also the change of the general group opinion with this mechanism. We have created the tool which uses the network of students tablets to study the effect of group work in classes. It also could conduct and control collaborative work of students. This type applets could be used further to create another new innovative tools for educational purposes.
