Using Adaptive Experiments to Rapidly Help Students
Angela Zavaleta-Bernuy, Qi Yin Zheng, Hammad Shaikh +4
Adaptive experiments can increase the chance that current students obtain better outcomes from a field experiment of an instructional intervention. In such experiments, the probabi…
Increasing Students' Engagement to Reminder Emails Through Multi-Armed Bandits
Fernando J. Yanez, Angela Zavaleta-Bernuy, Ziwen Han +3
Conducting randomized experiments in education settings raises the question of how we can use machine learning techniques to improve educational interventions. Using Multi-Armed Ba…
Reinforcement Learning for Education: Opportunities and Challenges
Adish Singla, Anna N. Rafferty, Goran Radanovic +1
This survey article has grown out of the RL4ED workshop organized by the authors at the Educational Data Mining (EDM) 2021 conference. We organized this workshop as part of a commu…
Challenges in Statistical Analysis of Data Collected by a Bandit Algorithm: An Empirical Exploration in Applications to Adaptively Randomized Experiments
Joseph Jay Williams, Jacob Nogas, Nina Deliu +4
Multi-armed bandit algorithms have been argued for decades as useful for adaptively randomized experiments. In such experiments, an algorithm varies which arms (e.g. alternative in…
An Overview of Machine Teaching
Xiaojin Zhu, Adish Singla, Sandra Zilles +1
In this paper we try to organize machine teaching as a coherent set of ideas. Each idea is presented as varying along a dimension. The collection of dimensions then form the proble…
