Short Biography
Amine Bouahmel is a second year PhD candidate at IMT Atlantique Bretagne, in Brest, France. Holding an MSc. in computer science with a specialization in Natural Language Processing (NLP), he is currently pursuing a PhD in Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL). Previous work included the use of NLP techniques for text classification, concept analysis, and sentiment analysis within the healthcare domain. Stemming from his involvement in NLP, he has developed a strong interest in applying machine learning and data mining in education, focusing on skill assessment and measurement of self-regulated learning within digital platforms.
Current PhD project
With the increasing popularity of digital platforms, where instructors’ presence is often low, the need to establish efficient methods for fostering self-regulated learning within these environments has grown significantly. This necessity arises from the importance of ensuring learners’ capacity to effectively and autonomously grasp the learning materials. The primary objective of this PhD project is to design a recommendation system that combines and analyzes learners’ skill assessment data along with their self-regulatory behaviours. This integrated approach aims to offer comprehensive SRL support across the entirety of their learning.
