Topic Extraction from Item-Level Grades (2005)
by Titus Winters, Christian Shelton, Thomas Payne, and Guobiao Mei
Abstract:
The most common form of dataset within the educational domain is likely the course gradebook. Data mining on the assignment-level scores is unlikely to provide meaningful results, but a matrix recording scores for every student and every question may provide hidden insight into the workings of a course. Here we will investigate collaborative filtering techniques applied to such data in an attempt to discover what the fundamental topics of a course are and the proficiencies of each student in those topics.
