Develop Academic Question Recommender Based on Bayesian Network for Personalizing Student’s Practice

Abstract

Study in Literatures shows that tracing knowledge state of student is corner stone of intelligent tutoring system for personalized learning. In this paper, an academic question recommender based on Bayesian network is developed for personalizing practice question sequence with tracing mastery level of student on knowledge components. This question recommender is discussed with theoretical analysis, and designed and implemented in software engineering way. It provides instructor with tools for building knowledge component network and setting question of course. It also makes student personalize practice questions of course. This question recommender is planned to deploy in real learning context for the future validation of how well such question recommendation improves performance and saves practice time for student.
