This research full paper describes a study on Video Position-Based Notes (VPB-Notes). Video-based learning environments have become increasingly prevalent in programming education, offering flexibility and personalized pacing. The VPB-Notes which allow students to capture thoughts, questions, and observations at specific video timestamps, have emerged as a promising tool to promote active learning...Show More
Video-based learning has become increasingly popular in online education, with many platforms offering video annotation features to promote student engagement. However, traditional engagement metrics may need to fully capture the complexity of learning behaviors, such as ineffective effort during the learning process. This study aims to introduce a novel "weighted effort value" indicator to measur...Show More
In an era when online education is becoming increasingly prevalent, and many institutions are transitioning onto online platforms, it has become crucial to understand online learning behaviors. The user data kept by online learning platforms has supported relevant research that has made great strides in analyzing both engagement and dropout rates in online courses. In online programming courses, l...Show More
This paper discusses the effectiveness of the Programmed Visual Contents Comparison Method (PVCC) for collaborative learning in computer programming education. Building upon our previous study, we proposed PVCC to assess panoramic understanding of programming and developed a testing system based on this method. Our results confirmed the PVCC method's ability to identify programming abilities relat...Show More
This study presents an innovative approach to understanding differences in student comprehension in online programming courses by analyzing note-taking and questioning patterns and the distribution of grades. It enables instructing educators to understand learners' learning behaviors better. We designed and developed a system to support online learning that enables students to take notes and ask q...Show More
With the aim of better teaching effectiveness in programing courses, this study provides a framework to easily understand students’ coding progress using the data which is produced while they are coding. In particular, we explore the methods to find students who get stuck at coding and make little progress. In HTML courses for programing novices, we collected code revision history including the am...Show More
Nowadays, there are lots of recipe sites on the net, work to inspire their users with visual and step-by-step guided cooking instructions. In these sites, recipe retrieval mechanisms are provided so that users can find recipes for dishes they want to cook by specifying their ingredients and nutrition facts or using keywords. In the circumstance as mentioned above, this paper focuses on the further...Show More
Formative feedback can help both learners and teachers confirm the ongoing acquisition of language. In this paper, we propose an approach to support formative teacher feedback by tracking learners' acquisition on foreign language writing. We built a prototype system to extract grammars that have been learned from learners' sentences and provide teachers with learners' acquisition on the grammars. ...Show More
This paper discusses a question authoring function of the Programmed Visual Contents Comparison Method (PVCC). With this method, by comparing two displayed pictures produced by programming samples (a question), a learner must decide which one the programs producing those pictures is the more difficult to build by programming, or if the difficulty is similar for all of them. After the learners answ...Show More
This paper discusses the practical applicability of the Programmed Visual Contents Comparison Method (PVCC) to IT employees. The PVCC is an aptitude and ability test to evaluate programming ability related to the Panoramic Understanding of Programming (PUP). We perform two types of experiments. The first is an individual appraisal. Candidates who have different programming education and different ...Show More
In a prior study we introduced the Programmed Visual Contents Comparison Method (PVCC) for assessment of programming abilities related with Panoramic Understanding of Programming (PUP). With this method, by comparing two or more output pictures produced by programming samples (a question), a student must decide which one of the programs producing them is more difficult to build with programming, o...Show More
In recent years, professionals in different fields have become able to do programming by using simplified software tools, as a consequence of this they are becoming able to understand programming in a general or “panoramic” way. This understanding is not evaluated by current programming abilities testing methods such as written paper tests or practical programming. This paper proposes a Programmed...Show More
Recently, enormous volume of data is created and it has been increasing. Various types of data are collected in data storages. Each of data management system utilises individual retrieval mechanism arbitrarily, users get into difficulty that they need to obey a query manor for each systems. In our work, we focus on the ubiquity of the retrieval and we discuss about a representation of user's query...Show More
We propose an idea for reconfiguring the contents of Web pages based on users' spatio-temporal information (time and location) and their access histories. The major objective of the proposed mechanism is to realize the reflection of a Web page author's intention about his Web data. The active rules of active database systems are closely related to our use of Web reconfiguration for changing the vi...Show More
In this paper, we propose an idea of using XML-based active rules for deriving Web views and for defining access control by user access behaviors. The major objective of the proposed method is to reflect author (creator)'s intention about his/her Web data and its link structures. In our ActiveWeb, the view of a Web page including its hyperlinks is changed according to each user's browsing situatio...Show More
