  • Effectiveness of integration of internet technologies in support of teaching and learning computer science programming

    Creator:
    Hajebi, Mojgan
    Abstract:
    In spite of wide spread adoption of the internet technology in teaching and learning, little research exists on the use and the effect of web incorporation in teaching and learning. Immediate clarification of how, when, and for whom the web integration in education is beneficial is needed. This qualitative study...

  • Computing Resource Usage as a Factor of Student Success

    Creator:
    Moissinac, Béatrice
    Abstract:
    Learning Analytics and other branches of Educational Research such as Computing Education Research (CER) implicitly assume that students, especially college students, have no barriers to access learning platforms or software packages. This assumption may be attributed to such pervasive beliefs such as "everyone has a device", or "everyone can access...

  • Conceptual Representations within the Social and Material Contexts of an Engineering Workplace and Academic Environments

    Creator:
    Barner, Matthew S.
    Abstract:
    Situated cognition theory emphasizes the role that social and material contexts have on learning and knowledge application. Several studies of engineering workplace environments have noted differences between the social and material contexts of the workplace and those of undergraduate engineering education. No existing research has studied the social and material...

  • Learning MDP action models via discrete mixture trees

    Creator:
    Wynkoop, Michael S.
    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses the problem of learning dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) models to support reinforcement learning. It focuses on learning regression tree models of the conditional probability distributions of the DBNs. Existing algorithms presume that the stochasticity in the domain can be modeled as a deterministic function with additive noise....

  • Analytical Methods for Improving Causal Inference

    Creator:
    Sinha, Meghamala
    Abstract:
    Causal inference is an important analytical tool to bridge the gap between prediction and decision-making. However, learning a causal network solely from data is a challenging task. In this work, various techniques have been explored for a better and improved causal network learning from data. Firstly, the problem of learning...

  • Inclusive Software Design and Its Methods for Beyond-WIMP User Interfaces

    Creator:
    Fallatah, Abrar
    Abstract:
    While digital inclusivity researchers and software practitioners have been trying to address exclusion biases in Windows, Icons, Menus, and Pointers (WIMP) user interfaces (UIs) for a long time, little has been done to investigate if and how inclusive software design and its methods that have been devised for WIMP UIs...

  • Active learning of constraints for semi-supervised clustering

    Creator:
    Xiong, Sicheng
    Abstract:
    Semi-supervised clustering aims to improve clustering performance by considering user supervision in the form of pairwise constraints. In this paper, we study the active learning problem of selecting pairwise must-link and cannot-link constraints for semisupervised clustering. We consider active learning in an iterative manner where in each iteration queries are...

  • A SAT-based planning framework for optimizing resource production

    Creator:
    Ventura, Christopher
    Abstract:
    Domain-independent automated planning is concerned with computing a sequence of actions that can transform an initial state into a desired goal state. Resource production domains form an interesting class of such problems, in that they typically require reasoning about concurrent durative-actions with continuous effects while minimizing some cost function. Although...
