Empirically Evaluating the Effectiveness of POMDP vs. MDP Towards the Pedagogical Strategies Induction
In Lecture Notes in Computer Science (pp. 327–331).
author keywords: Reinforcement Learning; POMDP; MDP; ITS
TL;DR:
An empirical study where RL-induced policies are compared against a random yet reasonable policy shows that when the contents are controlled to be equal, the MDP-based policy can improve students’ learning significantly more than the random baseline while the POMDP- based policy cannot outperform the later.

Investigation of the Influence of Hint Type on Problem Solving Behavior in a Logic Proof Tutor
In Lecture Notes in Computer Science (pp. 58–62).
author keywords: Tutoring system; Hint type; Data-driven
TL;DR:
The influence of two hint types (next-step hints and more abstract high-level hints) on students’ behavior in a college-level logic proof tutor, Deep Thought, suggest that hint types can affect student behavior, including hint usage, rule applications, and time in-tutor.

The Impact of Data Quantity and Source on the Quality of Data-Driven Hints for Programming
In Lecture Notes in Computer Science (pp. 476–490).
author keywords: Data-driven hints; Programming; Hint quality; Cold start
TL;DR:
It is found that with student training data, hint quality stops improving after 15–20 training solutions and can decrease with additional data, and that student data outperforms a single expert solution but that a comprehensive set of expert solutions generally performs best.

Learning Curve Analysis in a Large-Scale, Drill-and-Practice Serious Math Game: Where Is Learning Support Needed?
In Lecture Notes in Computer Science (pp. 436–449).
author keywords: Learning analytics; Serious games; Educational data mining; Fraction learning
TL;DR:
This work stresses the importance of designing games that support students’ comprehension of math concepts, rather than the learning of content- and situation-specific skills to pass games, and derived actionable game design feedback and educational insights regarding fraction learning.

Improving Learning & Reducing Time: A Constrained Action-Based Reinforcement Learning Approach
Improving Learning & Reducing Time: A Constrained Action-Based Reinforcement Learning Approach. PROCEEDINGS OF THE 26TH CONFERENCE ON USER MODELING, ADAPTATION AND PERSONALIZATION (UMAP'18), pp. 43–51.
author keywords: Constrained Reinforcement Learning; POMDP; Intelligent Tutoring System
TL;DR:
This work constructs a general data-driven framework called Constrained Action-based Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (CAPOMDP) to induce effective pedagogical policies and induces two types of policies: CAPOMDPLG using learning gain as reward with the goal of improving students' learning performance, and CAPomDPTime using time as reward for reducing students' time on task.

Infusing Computational Thinking into Middle Grade Science Classrooms: Lessons Learned
WIPSCE'18: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 13TH WORKSHOP IN PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COMPUTING EDUCATION, pp. 109–114.
author keywords: Professional Development; STEM plus C; Computational Thinking
TL;DR:
Initial lessons learned while conducting design-based implementation research on integrating computational thinking into middle school science classes are presented and case studies suggest that several factors including teacher engagement, teacher attitudes, student prior experience with CS/CT, and curriculum design can all impact student engagement in integrated science-CT lessons.

Evaluating Adaptive Pedagogical Agents' Prompting Strategies Effect on Students' Emotions
INTELLIGENT TUTORING SYSTEMS, ITS 2018, Vol. 10858, pp. 33–43.
author keywords: Adaptivity; Prompting; Pedagogical agents; Intelligent tutoring systems; Emotions; Affects; Metacognition; Self-regulated learning
TL;DR:
Examination of the impact of different prompting strategies on self-reported agent-directed emotions in an ITS that scaffolds students’ use of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies, taking into account students' prior knowledge indicates that more intense initial prompting can indeed lead to increased frustration, and sometimes boredom even toward pedagogical agents that are perceived as competent.
