The Success of using Computing Technologies to Improve Learning Outcomes of Students in Higher Education Institutes
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper presents the importance of Artificial intelligence (AI) in the computing education, which has become an important and powerful aspect of human lives. It is still a field in its beginnings, but as time progresses, we will observe how AI evolves and explores its untapped potential. The rapid development regarding scrutiny of learning outcomes for higher education, establishment and implementation of international standards shows the need of the technology. Many higher education institutes of the world are adopting information and communication technology (ICT) to enhance the Course Learning Outcomes (CLO) of the students based on the revised Bloom Taxonomy that assists the institutions to analyze the outcomes of students in planning the course and techniques to improve and enhance the performance of students. This research paper analysis the importance of blooms in integration of computing technologies and smart learning environment and provides the encouraging results when analyzed by using supervised machine learning methods during the COVID-19 pandemic situation. In this research, we have designed an ICT based framework to achieve the learning outcomes of the students in computing subjects. It is worth mentioning that the proposed educational model reports the promising results of a bout of 83% accuracy. The accuracy of the model is also verified from self-assessment reports of the students.
