Real-Time Prediction of Students' Activity Progress and Completion Rates

Pierre Dillenbourg, Jennifer Kaitlyn Olsen, Louis Pierre Faucon, Stian Haklev

In classrooms, some transitions between activities impose (quasi-)synchronicity, meaning there is a need for learners to move between activities at the same time. To make real-time decisions about when to move to the next activity, teachers need to be able ...
