Utilizing a smart cognitive support system for K-8 education

Abstract

This research is aimed to determine how cognitive apprenticeship framework could be utilized in designing and utilizing an ontology based cognitive support system (OBCSS). It is also aimed to evaluate the use of OBCSS in educational settings to determine how much mental effort is needed for students to use it and to determine whether use of OBCSS decreases disorientation and supports navigation as stated in literature. Scales are used to get perceived behavioral data from the participants. This data is used to investigate experiences of users who have gender and computer experience diversities. Personal information form, mental effort evaluation scale and perceived disorientation scale are used to collect data. Log data is collected from learners' interaction with system. Sample of this study are fifth and sixth grade students at three state schools and one private school in Central Turkey. At the first phase, data is collected from 83 students, and this data is used for Reliability and Validity of the disorientation scale. At second phase data is collected from 89 students, and this data is used for the analysis of the OBCSS. System is evaluated by collecting data from real time users. According to results of statistical analyses, mental efforts of learners did not differ across gender, daily average computer and internet use, and frequency of internet use for studying. Similarly, perceived disorientation and perceived ease of use did not differ across gender, daily average computer and internet use and frequency for using internet to study. According to log data, OBCSS can provide different personalized learning paths based on the current knowledge of learners.

Application of IoT in Analyzing Cognitive Skills of Students-A Systematic Literature Review

“…The key factor defined by the use of the Ontology-based cognitive support system (OBCSS) is the assessment of student mental efforts in educational setting context. This study model also discovers the scales used in education to collect data on engagement behaviour and navigation (Kaya & Altun, 2018) [58]. Developmental relationships are observed by author at the pre-kindergarten year level of children.…”

“…By preparing functional groups as course teams, e-learning using learning analytics is used to provide learners with an environment for preparing their study. A multi-module model of educational material, curriculum development strategies, cognitive status, behavioral analysis and personalization was developed to support learner and his learning experience (Troussas et al, 2020) [55]. To flourish the online learning environment (OLE), the dynamic nature of education requires much cognitive skill.…”

“…By developing curriculum mapping and learning inventions, students will be helping in personalized learning. This will provide high-value metrics for measuring the efficacy of teaching techniques, learner involvement in classrooms and the efficiency of technology learning processes (Troussas et al, 2020) [55].…”

La Calidad y su Enfoque Aplicado en la Educación, Caso Zongolica, Veracruz

“…El enfoque del estudio es mixto devido a que primero se realizó una investigación documental para clarificar el concepto de calidad mediante un red conceptual y cuantitativo por que los resultados de la evaluación son cuantiativos. Se utilizó un instrumento con 16 ítems con escala de Likert, el instrumento fue validado mediante el índice de Alfa de Cronbach con 86% de confiabilidad (Kaya & Altun, 2018). En la tabla uno se observan los cálculos.…”
