| Περιγραφή: | Finding a proper study partner is a major dilemma to students who have to learn in an online environment. Unlike in physical classroom where socialization among the students goes almost naturally, e-learning environments rarely provide systematic means of linking students based on complementary academic profiles. This description of the Study Buddy functionality which has been incorporated into LearnSphere, an AIenhanced Learning Management System, handles this problem through an algorithmic peer-matchmaking pipeline. The system is functioning on two layers. It first builds normalised skill vectors based on quiz and assignment performance of each student, then ranks pairs of candidates based on a weighted expression that captures both joint curriculum coverage and diversity of profiles between two students as measure that is cosine-distanced. The second layer uses a KMeans clustering model on data on realtime platforms to assign students to three learner archetypes with a small bonus extended to cross-cluster pairings. Once they have successfully matched, the students are able to dispatch buddy requests, chat, and/or schedule study sessions, all on the same platform. |
