    Grade 6 Coding Education through Interactive Learning in Sri Lanka
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2025-12-08) Nallaperuma, S; Perera, A; Nanayakkara, N; Hansaja, D; Krishara, J; Wijendra, D
    This study proposes an AI-powered Adaptive Learning Management System (LMS) to enhance coding education for school students. The system integrates six AI/ML models and FaceNet-based facial authentication to deliver adaptive learning pathways, real-time feedback, and personalized assessments. It begins with an initial benchmarking assessment across seven categories, after which the Exam Difficulty and Question Count Model and a fine-tuned GPT-2 generator collaboratively create customized multiple-choice questions based on each learner's capability. Learning is supported through skill prediction, dynamic difficulty monitoring, and emotional state detection to ensure both cognitive and emotional engagement. Students scoring above 60% advance directly to coding curricula, while others receive personalized scaffolding through multimodal learning-style-based modules. Teachers benefit from AI-powered analytics tools that offer continuous feedback, weak-topic detection, and pedagogical guidance to enhance teaching effectiveness. By combining authentication, adaptive assessment, emotional intelligence, and teacher support, this study presents a comprehensive framework to democratize coding education and foster resilience, motivation, and mastery among students aged 10-12.

    The Influence of IT Infrastructure and Supply Chain Flexibility on Supply Chain Performance in the Apparel Manufacturing Sector
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Kulasekara, D; Sandaruwan, D; Ekanayake, T; Perera, A; Wisenthige, K; Aluthwala, C
    In a developing country, the apparel manufacturing sector needs to improve their performance, reduce costs, and satisfy the demands of a highly competitive global market. Thus, Supply Chain Management (SCM), particularly the influence of IT Infrastructure (ITI) and Supply Chain Flexibility (SCF) in driving Supply Chain Performance (SCP), focuses on their combine within the Sri Lankan apparel manufacturing sector. These relationships were evaluated using a quantitative research approach, with data gathered from Supply Chain (SC) professionals in apparel manufacturing companies. The study reveals that SCF mediates the relationship between ITI and SCP, indicating the importance of a flexible SC in moving ITI investments into functional performance improvements. Considering the current environment, apparel manufacturers should apply methods that relate ITI capabilities to the SC ability to respond to changing demands. Technological foundation influences SCF, enabling organizations to respond effectively to market demand and operational challenges. Consequently, SCF significantly contributes to SCP by improving flexibility, reducing costs and enhancing customer satisfaction. Some of the practical implication include the usage of advanced IT systems including prophetic analytics and enterprise resource planning tools to enhance SC responsiveness. In addition, development of collaborative relationship with suppliers and partners can enhance the effect of SCF and SCP, making Sri Lanka apparel manufacturers more competent to perform international standard. Future studies are encouraged to take these findings to other sectors and regions to explore the influence of new technologies and other external factors. In this way, it would be possible to achieve more advancements in the SCM practices in response to the current global market challenges.
