  2. The ASSISTments data used [download]

  3. The MATLAB code used in the experiments [download]

  4. A brief introduction to the ARRS system from a teacher perspective is here. A video introduction is here.

  5. The features used in this study:

  1. The post-test prints [download]

  2. If you want an even more detailed amount of data for this study (that is info on every problem that every kid did) you can find it here.

Funding came, in part, from this NSF grant as well this IES grant. Both web sites provide a little more detail.
