Publication Embargo Innovative, Integrated and Interactive (3I) LMS for Learners and Trainers(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Fernando, K.J.L.; Jayalath, W.J.D.L.D.D.; Ranasinghe, A.D.R.N.; Bandara, P.K.B.P.S.; De Silva, H.3I-LMS is meant to conquer the insurmountable restraints to class/lecture room education. What are insurmountable restraints to physical classroom education and how does 3I-LMS conquer them. Firstly, the lockdown and physical distancing warranted by the spread of Covid-19. In order to overcome the restraints of the pandemic 3I-LMS would be the obvious answer. 3I-LMS, the medium for delivery and reception, is online for both learners and trainers. Secondly, ineffectiveness resulting in frail in pass rates, fast diminishing memory, faulty study techniques are overcome. 3I-LMS makes studying satisfied, gamified, engaged and enjoying. The outcome would be lasting memory, effective study techniques, higher recall rates leading to improved pass rates. Thirdly, inefficiencies such as slow access to relevant lessons, notes, slow answer evaluation, feedback, clarification to routine questions are also resolved by 3I-LMS. 3I-LMS provides for keyword search, relevant subject wise notes, instant answers for routine questions thus contributing to improved efficiencies. Additionally, 3I-LMS has unique and innovative features to assist assignment completion, emanate milestone alerts, monitoring emotions and time utilization. 3I-LMS provides for utmost security. Thus, the solution deploys face recognition and keystroke dynamics to combat impersonation, copying and unauthorized referencing.Publication Embargo Standalone Application and Chromium Browser Extension-based System for Online Examination Cheating Detection(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Kariyawasam, S.; Lakshan, A.; Liyanage, A.; Gimhana, K.; Piyawardana, V.; Mallawarachchi, Y.Educational organizations and institutes that provide services to the public use e-learning frequently than before. The incapacity to evaluate the knowledge acquired is a flaw in education. Due to the current situation, traditional evaluation and examinations are not possible. In a developing country like Sri Lanka, the conduct of online examinations has not been efficient, resulting in cheating at examinations due to vulnerabilities resulting from organizational policies and the difficulty to track down candidates who are prone to cheating, therefore use of facial features for candidate verification and to monitor the background interactions the use of audio and video is taken into consideration with the aid of two cameras; the system mounted camera and a wearable camera containing a microphone allowing audio detection. In this research, we suggest using the training data set generated from individuals to undertake a training approach to improve the robustness for background interactions through audio and video to detect the level of cheating of candidates.Publication Embargo Personalized Assistive Learning System for Primary Education(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Yapa, Y.M.T.S.; Fernando, W.S.I.; Sampath, W.H.M.K.; Kodithuwakku, K.D.D.I.; Samaratunge, U.S.S.; Lunugalage, D.Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, almost all educational institutions, including schools, remain closed. This caused a dramatic change in the educational systems. The sudden shift away from the classroom made the profound transformation of the teacher-centered education system prevail so far; consequently, the education of primary level students has been collapsed. Therefore, the primary students from grades 1 to 3 cannot acquire the primary education given by the school. This research proposes a personalized assistive learning system for primary education from grade 1 to 3 students, aiming to improve their learning skills. The proposed system aims to increase the automation and self-learning of students. A novel method is proposed to acquire personalized course materials for students of grades 1 to 3 according to their knowledge level. The system is founded on a solid theoretical foundation and enables children to grow cognitive and psycho-therapeutic skills such as drawing, writing, recognizing numbers, enabling self-learning, and focusing on measuring the progress of the students and reporting it to parents. CNN is the primary classifier used in image recognition and classification tasks in computer vision. The components' median accuracy is 94.74%.Publication Embargo Student Engagement in Online ESL Classroom: A Tale of Teachers(Faculty of Humanities and Sciences,SLIIT, 2021-09-25) Kalinga, JOnline education /e-learning has become an integral part during the Covid 19 pandemic. This study aims to explore the teachers’ perceptions on online learning and student engagement, strategies and tools used in online classes to obtain high level of student engagement and the barriers they face in achieving these goals. A case study research design with five ESL teachers as the sample is used in this study. One-on-one interviews are used as the research tool and based on the data three themes are identified. They are student engagement in an online learning environment, techniques used to gain student engagement and the barriers for gaining student engagement in an online environment. There are several major findings. The novelty of teaching in an online setting and lack of exposure to online interactive tools are prominent in the selected context. Despite this, all the participants have expressed fairly a positive attitude towards online teaching even though they have faced several difficulties in gaining maximum student engagement.
