Seminar "Educational Data Mining"

Kurzbeschreibung

Das Seminar behandelt aktuelle (Forschungs-)Themen im Bereich Educational Data Mining. Ausgehend von den Grundlagen des Data Minings werden Anwendungen im Bereich von (intelligenten) Lernsystemen untersucht. Es werden u.a. Fragestellungen behandelt, die den Einsatz und den Nutzen von maschinellem Lernen in Systemen untersuchen, die das menschliche Lernen unterstützen sollen. 

Ansprechpartner

Prof. Dr. Niels Pinkwart
Zhilin Zheng (organistorische Fragen und Fragen zu Themen im Bereich EDM)
Sebastian Groß (Fragen zu Themen im Bereich Intelligent Tutoring System und Learning Analytics)

Termine & Leistungsnachweis-Bedingungen, Präsentationstechnik

Regelmäßiger Termin: Donnerstag 9-11 Uhr, Rudower Chaussee 26, 1.307

Zur Erlangung eines Seminarscheines wird ein Vortrag (30 min.), die Leitung der Diskussion zum eigenen Vortrag (ca. 15 min.) und eine schriftliche Ausarbeitung (~10 Seiten) gefordert. Es wäre sinnvoll, wenn Sie einige Fragen vorbereiten wüden, die die Grundlage für die anschließende Diskussion bilden. Sie können ihre Folien (mindestens eine Woche vor dem Vortrag) per E-Mail an zhilin.zheng@informatik.hu-berlin.de senden, um Feedback zu erhalten.

Das Seminar startet am 16.04.2015 mit einer kurzen Einführung in Educational Data Mining und der Vorstellung der Themen. Anschließend können Themen ausgewählt werden. Die genauen Termine für die Vorträge werden (in Abhängigkeit von der tatsächlichen Teilnehmerzahl) zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt bekanntgegeben. Bitte melden Sie sich über GOYA an.

Vorträge und schriftliche Ausarbeitungen müssen in englischer Sprache gehalten bzw. verfasst werden. Spätester Abgabetermin für die schriftlichen Ausarbeitungen ist der 30.09.2015.

Für die Vorträge stehen ein Videobeamer (mit VGA-/HDMI-Anschluss) und eine (Kreide-)Tafel zur Verfügung. Ein tragbarer Rechner (Adobe Reader, Firefox, PowerPoint, LibreOffice) kann bei rechtzeitiger Voranmeldung zur Verfügung gestellt werden (vorheriges Testen wird empfohlen).
