In addition, MA-THia's BKT parameter estimates for each skill (used to determine the models' responsiveness to correct and incorrect answers) are now frequently set based on data-driven estimation techniques [32,39] as opposed to mostly being set according to expert judgment in earlier Cognitive Tutor versions. ...
