FCA-based approach for modeling the domain knowledge in an education system

Partha Ghosh

Abstract

In multidisciplinary courses, learners have diverse educational background and training on varying subjects. Subjects that such learners have studied may or may not relate to those of a course now being pursued. A requirement, therefore, arises to ascertain the level of understanding that the learners’ have acquired respectively in their chosen subjects. This paper proposes a FCA-based teaching methodology for the learners on the basis of their background knowledge. In our approach, we first present a mathematical model to calculate the learners’ prior knowledge on the subjects of pursuing course based on the learners’ background knowledge. Using the calculated prior knowledge on the pursuing subjects, the learners are then clustered by generating proto-fuzzy to deliver appropriate learning material to each of the learners. Finally, we discuss the proposed model with an example.
