Research: Educational data mining, analysis and visualization


From idea fo the BCIME project


From the beginning

2007: MEFANET – Medical Faculties NETwork

The MEFANET project (Medical Faculties NETwork) is aiming to strengthen the cooperation among Czech and

Slovak medical faculties, as regards the progress in education of medical and health care disciplines using

modern ICT.

2012: OPTIMED – OPTImized MEDical education

The primary effort of the OPTIMED project is a comprehensive innovation of the General Medicine study field and

a strengthening of lessons focused on the solution, matching the future clinical or academic job of the graduate.

2015: MedCIn – Medical Curriculum Innovations The MEDCIN project proposes an innovative methodological background including web-based visualization tool for comprehensive

evaluation and map of medical curricula with the use of modern information and communication technologies.

To propose a curriculum planning model as a clear communication channel

between the involved stakeholders

To develop a robust web-oriented platform used for easy creation,

transparent browsing, and reviewing the curriculum

To support outcome-based approach

General goals

Motivation



Outcome-based approach

Arguably best viewed as a fundamental building block of the Bologna

education reforms (2005)

Emphasis is on the product – what sort of graduates shall be produced –

rather than on the educational process itself (R.M. Harden)

Set of requirements on the graduate after the end of learning period

Noun (the subject matter content)

Verb (the cognitive processes)

Sentence (what student is expected to know, to do, …)

Student describes the anatomy of human body.

Example

Outcome-based approach



Research goals

To develop a web-oriented platform for educational data collection Agile development (changing requirements, cost reduction,…)

Modularity

Formal parametric structure of curriculum

User-friendly interface

To explore information-rich relations between data NLP, statistical, machine-learning and data-mining techniques

education


Benefits

Students What knowledge shall be obtained over the study

What topics will be covered repeatedly

Lecturers Easy way how to clearly describe their lessons

How to browse curriculum data of all available courses

Management On-line transparent overview of curriculum

Clear information about an overlaps (desirable or not)

Decision support of curriculum building and innovation


BCIME vision

How to propose unified data model for both approaches

How to process medical curriculum data with the use of NLP, machine

learning and data mining techniques

How to define methodology for curriculum comparison

How to generate profile of graduates

BCIME: communication channels

Emails

Skype calls

Videoconferences Which tool will be used?

Regular online meetings Ones per a month? At least one representative per partner, always.


BCIME: main objectives

To share know-how in the field of curriculum design, innovating on and optimising the proven

methodology of parametric description (curriculum building blocks) and guidelines for curriculum

definition.

To create new descriptions of selected curriculum parts in partner institutions in accordance to the local

needs analysis and institutional requirements, while in full compliance with international standards.

To define and solve new curriculum mapping research questions and issues and to explore hidden

relations in described curricula with the use of natural language processing, data/text mining, machine

learning, analysis and visualization.


BCIME: project schedule

Intellectual outputs, multiplier events and transnational meetings


BCIME: intellectual outputs

Are there any changes?

Crucial for the BCIME project!

Need to be done with each partner (supervised by MU team) Face-to-face meeting or remote online call

Representatives of partner organisation (faculty management, teacher, technical staff)

Needs analysis (institutional requirements related to the goals, aspirations and functions of curriculum innovations and mapping)
