Constructing Educational Concept Maps with Multiple Relationships from MultiSource Data Concept map is an useful tool to help people organize and improve knowledge. Particularly in educational domain, it is beneficial for students and teachers to improve the learning and teaching quality. Traditionally, manual educational concept maps, provided by teachers, are quite timeconsuming and limited to teachersu0027 experience. Thus, it is meaningful to automatically construct highquality concept maps. However, existing datadriven solutions only focus on either separate data source or single pedagogic relationship, which are not sufficient to satisfy actual demands. To this end, we propose a novel framework, named Extracting Multiple Relationships Concept Map (EMRCM), to construct multiple relations concept maps from Multisource Data. Specifically, we design various targeted evidences to explore diverse information of multisource data from different perspectives. Then, we employ three classic classifiers to bulid the predictive model for extracting key concepts and multiple concept relationships using the proposed evidences. We create a real dataset for empirically studying this problem. Extensive experiments on a realworld dataset show the effectiveness of our method.

Inferring Concept Prerequisite Relations from Online Educational Resources The Internet has rich and rapidly increasing sources of high quality educational content. Inferring prerequisite relations between educational concepts is required for modern largescale online educational technology applications such as personalized recommendations and automatic curriculum creation. We present PREREQ, a new supervised learning method for inferring concept prerequisite relations. PREREQ is designed using latent representations of concepts obtained from the Pairwise Latent Dirichlet Allocation model, and a neural network based on the Siamese network architecture. PREREQ can learn unknown concept prerequisites from course prerequisites and labeled concept prerequisite data. It outperforms stateoftheart approaches on benchmark datasets and can effectively learn from very less training data. PREREQ can also use unlabeled video playlists, a steadily growing source of training data, to learn concept prerequisites, thus obviating the need for manual annotation of course prerequisites.
