Abstract

This approach was particularly applied to solve problems with the definite integral in university-level calculus courses Assessment of Content Analysis Expert Knowledge Structure Participators Error Type Analysis Research Tools The results show that the overall recognition rate of the BN (Model 2) is better than that of Model 1, which has only the multiple choice items. This research focuses on definite integral diagnostic tests and automated analysis mechanisms. Future studies may focus on remedial teaching.

Keywords

Bayesian network
DINA model
