Abstract

This study analyzes data from the Open University Learning Analytics Dataset to evaluate how students' interactions with Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) materials influence their final outcomes. This research aims to formulate and build a novel predictive framework based on the Felder-Silverman and Machine Learning Model for student learning styles. Based on these objectives, this research provides novelty and contributions since it enhances student data analysis, uses a learning model using Felder-Silverman Learning Style Model (FSLSM) to give a more comprehensive understanding of students' learning styles, and improves prediction accuracy by introducing Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and feature selection using Random Forest. The data used includes 3 main files: vle.csv, which contains information about the materials and activities in the VLE; studentVle.csv, which records students' interactions with the materials; and studentInfo.csv, which provides demographic information of students and their final outcomes. The analysis process involved data merging and processing, including handling of missing values, data type conversion, as well as mapping activity types to learning style features based on the FSLSM. We use the Random Forest feature selection method, as well as data imbalance handling techniques such as oversampling, to improve model performance. The applied classification models include Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and ANN. The analysis results showed that after tuning, the Random Forest model achieved 97% accuracy, while SVM achieved 97% accuracy as well, with better performance than previous studies. This research highlights the importance of comprehensive data integration and appropriate processing techniques in improving the accuracy of student learning style prediction. Based on the increase in accuracy results, it can be beneficial for more effective personalized learning and improve our understanding of students' learning style preferences. The research advances knowledge and provides practical applications for educators to tailor their teaching strategies.

Abstract

Cognitive Diagnosis Models (CDMs) in Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) are widely used to assess students’ cognitive abilities; however, existing approaches face significant limitations. The Latent Trait Model often suffers from specification errors due to its complexity, the Diagnostic Classification Model encounters difficulties in integrating hierarchical structures, and Deep Learning Models demand substantial computational resources. To address these challenges, this study introduces Salmon Salar Optimization (SSO) to enhance CDM performance and integrates the Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) to improve dynamic question selection. The proposed adaptive testing framework comprises three components: preprocessing, CDM, and a selection algorithm. Experimental results on the ASSISTments 2009-2010 dataset demonstrate that SSO outperforms representative baselines from both deep learning: Neural CD and Latent Trait Model: MIRT approaches. Using 5-fold cross-validation, the proposed model achieved superior predictive performance with 75.51% accuracy and an AUC of 0.8191, highlighting its robustness compared to existing state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, adaptive test simulations reveal that the SSO- and POMDP-based model delivers superior outcomes, attaining 80.3% accuracy with a reward of 8.03 for 10-question exams and 79.8% accuracy with a reward of 11.97 for 15-question exams. These findings confirm the effectiveness of the proposed model in enhancing cognitive diagnosis and adaptive testing performance.
