This study demonstrates the potential of using machine learning algorithms for computational modeling in educational interventions, specifically targeting cognitive attributes through the SWH to increase student success. Computational modeling using MLA is shown to be a valuable resource for testing educational interventions and informing specific hypotheses in science education research.
This study is intended to provide an example of computational modeling (CM) experiment using machine learning algorithms. Specific outcomes modeled in this study are the predicted influences associated with the Science Writing Heuristic (SWH) and associated with the completion of question items for the Cornell Critical Thinking Test. The Student Task and Cognition Model in this study uses cognitive data from a large-scale randomized control study. Results of the computational model experiment provide for the possibility to increase student success via targeted cognitive retraining of specific cognitive attributes via the SWH. This study also illustrates that computational modeling using machine learning algorithms (MLA) is a significant resource for testing educational interventions, informs specific hypotheses, and assists in the design and development of future research designs in science education research.
