Week 1

Subject

Fun Learning for Kids Enhance knowledge levels of young children through an interactive quiz system. Teachers will be able to tell the system the desired final knowledge level and will be able to see the progress of each child. Furthermore the system has to be able to interact with the children and assess their knowledge levels to create questions on their personal level. In our project we will focus on the quiz and try to create this.

Users

  • Children from class 3 - 4 in the Netherlands. The system could later on be changed to fit other age groups that have other knowledge levels, but for this project we focus on this group as the simple math they need to learn here are an easy starting point for the program.
  • Parents or guardians of these children as they want to know the progress their child or children has made.
  • Teachers that can tell the systems what level of knowledge the entire class needs to reach at the end. They also need to be able to see how far each student has gotten.

User Requirements

children:

  • learning through a fun program
  • competitive, want the highest reward (number of sheep)

parents:

  • want their children to study properly
  • want their children to be happy
  • want their children to be motivated/interested
  • want to have more free time as they do not have to tutor as much anymore
  • want to check their children's progress

teachers:

  • let the students learn effectively
  • the system has to match the curriculum
  • easier to check all students' progress

Objective

Develop a smart quiz program for on a computer/tablet/laptop that can assess knowledge levels of its users and ask questions on their personal boundary so they learn effectively.

Approach

Creating the smart quiz and interface in java.

Intelligent Quiz Master

Idea. Use a set of arithmic questions (addition, subtraction, fractions) since then it is easy for us to check if it makes sense. Also, since most children have difficulties with arithmic this is actually useful.

Given a set of questions, the quiz master will test the knowledge of a child, and help the child improve by asking the right questions at the right time. We will build an application that selects the next question to ask the child, based on the previous answers the child gave to previous questions. The quiz will find the knowledge level of the child and ask questions at the child's knowledge boundary so he can still learn from the question but will not be overwhelmed.

The quiz master has to:

  • Find out the level of knowledge the child has, and ask questions that are on the 'edge' of a childs knowledge in order to improve their knowledge.
  • Optionally invent new questions, similar to the already existing questions.

In order to do so, we must:

  • Define distance (or question similarity) between questions, which questions are of similar difficulty. So cluster questions based on their difficulty. Note that this will vary per child.
  • Simulate the (increasing/decreasing) knowledge of different children. (To be able to train our app.)
  • Construct a (large enough) data set to use parts of it for training and validation.
  • Find out what the next right question would be. Our app should do this, based on the question similarity for a certain child. Educational/psychological: what are the best questions to ask?

Milestones

  • Finishing planning
  • Summarizing SotA
  • Quiz
    • Teacher can enter category and boundary (knowledge goal that has to be reached)
    • Quiz can generate questions inside category
    • Quiz can understand the person's input
    • Quiz uses input to generate personal level questions
    • Quiz gives results
  • Interface
    • Results are displayed to child/parent/teacher (they each have their own interface)
    • Reward system (for the child, parents can see this as well)

Deliverables

Smart quiz program including interfaces for the child who will use the quiz to learn, the parents and the teacher.

UML for Quiz

UML.PNG

  • This includes the categories and how we plan to make it smart.

Clustering

  • Knewton did something similar...
  • Ideas for defining distance between arithmic questions:
    • Number of operators.
    • Size of the numbers (number of digits, or a range).
    • Create graph of questions, with the weight of an edge between two nodes the number of similarities they have. An edge with weight 0 is not an edge. Then all components are their own cluster, and we can find minimal cuts in this network to construct more clusters.

Week 3

Idea

Tutoring system for in the classroom which will be able to come up with questions in a smart way. These questions will be on the average knowledge level of the whole class. The system gives feedback to the teacher about the students enabling him/her to know what students are above average and what students are below. This way the children that are above average can move on in the curriculum independently, while the average children can learn the simple maths with the program and the teacher can focus on helping the children that are not as good. By doing this, the teacher can work more efficiently and more children can be educated at their personal levels. We have found an open source program that resembles Kahoot, and we want to build on this so that eventually it will become an AI program that can generate questions on its own and knows which questions to ask the class. If it is possible (taking into account time and materials) we would like to test this program at an elementary school in Oisterwijk by letting the children make the quiz and check whether or not the program can cluster the children correctly. We can check this by asking the teacher if it is like their expectations. When doing this we can also ask the children and the teacher about their opinion of the program. Some letters will have to be send to the school and/or parents (informed consent?) which we would like to do this week so we can test in week 6. All in all we will test whether or not blended learning can work because we want teacher to be able to work more efficiently as there is a big shortage of elementary teachers.

Didactische leeromgeving

Uit onderzoeken van de rijksoverheid <ref>"De staat van het onderwijs", Onderwijsverslag 2011/2012, Inspectie van het Onderwijs april, 2013<\ref> blijken de volgende dingen:

  • Opsplitsen van de grote groep in kleinere groepen in leerjaar 3 heeft een positief effect op de prestaties van de leerlingen, doordat er meer interactie waargenomen wordt.
  • Ruim 90 procent van de leraren in het primair onderwijs gebruikt computers bij het lesgeven. Volgens hun kan het gebruik van ICT kan bijdragen aan efficiënter, effectiever en aantrekkelijker onderwijs.

Progress

Letters for school/parents and an informed consent have been drafted but there are probably some TU/e templates and stuff we need. So we have to wait until after the tutormeeting and ask how we need to do this.

Information needed to conduct the test at the school has been collected. The children in class three have basic arithmatic knowledge, mainly adding and subtracting integers, and naming all the integers that lie in between two other given integers. The school has plenty of iPads and computers to perform the test, on. However, we need to figure out:

  • how we will get the computer program on all the iPads/computers
  • we need to know for sure that the school agrees with this
  • the program UI should be easy to understand, as these children are very young
  • the program should be interesting for young kids?

A teacher at the school will contact us shortly, to tell us whether we can conduct the test and if so when/how. Issues concerning informed consent and issues concerning putting the program on the iPads/computers can then be discussed.

Doel van het project

Leraar beter inzetten:

  • op tijd/snel herkennen welke kinderen extra hulp nodig hebben
  • vraag beantwoorden: welke kinderen hebben moeite met dit onderwerp/welke kinderen hebben mijn extra tijd nodig en welke niet?
    • onderbouwend artikel over moeite met onderwerpen niet hele categorie

Middel/idee:

  • (uitkomsten van de) quiz
  • per week/maand
  • per onderwerp
  • uitgebouwd op een bestaand systeem

Problemen die we identiciferen/needs of the users:

  • privacy
    • nee
  • didactische theorie
    • ja, eventueel een keuze door leraar tussen twee uitersten
  • entertainment
    • ja, heeft te maken met didactische theorie die onze quiz onderbouwt
    • hoe vragen stellen
  • competitief
    • word onderbouwt door onze didactische theorie
  • het moet niet voelen als een test/ druk dat je niet de slechtste wil zijn of een label krijgt
    • dit gaan wij niet concreet verbeteren
    • maar onze didactische theorie beantwoord die vraag impliciet
  • ouders moeten het er mee eens zijn
    • gaan we niet op in
  • hoe ervaart de leraar dit?
    • uitleg van ons systeem
    • zou je het willen gebruiken
    • denk je dat het gaat helpen om tijd/aandacht beter in te delen
    • spreekt het de kinderen aan (didactische theorie)
    • gunstig om per onderwerp te testen (klokkijken, tafeltjes, breuken, etc)?
  • hoe vaak test je, frequentie
    • doen we geen uitspraak over
    • laten we aan de leraar over
  • hoe test je
    • per onderwerp
    • we hebben nog een onderzoekje nodig om dit te onderbouwen evt

Wat moet de leraar kunnen kiezen:

  • integer/decimal
  • onder en boven bound
  • operations
  • aantal argumenten per vraag
  • aantal antwoorden per vraag
  • haakjes/geen haakjes
