    Personalized Adaptive System for Enhancing University Student Performance in Sri Lanka
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025-05-01) Dissanayake, N; Samarakoon, C; Wickramasinghe, D; Pathirana, M; Gamage N.D.U; Attanayaka, B
    The growing need for personalized learning strategies has driven the development of data-driven solutions to meet the diverse needs of Sri Lankan university students. A key challenge lies in identifying optimal learning paths that align with individual capabilities, learning styles, and engagement behaviors to improve academic performance. While previous research has explored generalized learning models, these often fail to adapt to the specific demands of individual learners. Traditional strategies lack personalization, resulting in inconsistent learning progress. To address this gap, the research introduces an assistive, data-driven approach that leverages Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs), Adaptive Learning (AL), Content-Based Filtering, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), and Social Network Analysis (SNA) to create optimized, personalized learning strategies. Clustering algorithms and predictive analysis were used to segment learners and deliver tailored interventions based on their behavior. The proposed system integrates advanced machine learning techniques to enhance student engagement and improve overall academic outcomes through personalized pathways.

    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.
