From: Learning log-based automatic group formation: system design and classroom implementation study
Technique | Context | Parameters |
|---|---|---|

Semantic method (Manske and Hoppe 2016) | Kit-map generation | Learner-generated artifacts, texts, concept maps and hypotheses |
Evolutionary and genetic method (Abnar et al. 2012) | Peer discussion of dynamic programming problem | Programming skills, personality, learning style |
Multi-objective optimization genetic method (Moreno et al. 2012; Abnar et al. 2012) | Course subject discussion of a computer programming | Student knowledge levels, student communicative skills, student leadership skills |
