Assignment 2: Student Modeling



Q: What is "Student Modeling" in Assignment 2? 
A: It is harder to understand. It refers to more like learning analytics, some systems may recommend, suggest certain content, or activities to each user based on their profiles, accessing behaviors etc. 
For instance, trending, most viewed pages, top rating, top users, RSS feeds etc. are sent to users as notifications. 
Or something notify users of their accessing or learning activities etc. 
More specifically, Google Classroom has an "Upcoming" feature on the homepage to notify students of upcoming events, assignments, works etc. 
In addition, we can customize the notifications of Google Classroom activities based on our needs. (Settings/Notifications).




We could examine whether the system provides any feature to engage students with games, competitive leader-boards and point thresholds. 
Adding points to badges is a way to incentive students to earn them and actively work.

Furthermore, we could examine whether the system allows for students to participate in quizzes, assessments , and attainment of badges (built by the teacher). 
This will allow for teachers to track learning styles, goal attainment, interests and ultimately a learner profile.
