Preface

Welcome to the Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on IntelligentSystems Design and Applications (ISDA17), which was held in South AsianUniversity, Delhi, India, during December 14–16, 2017. ISDA 2017 is jointlyorganized by the Machine Intelligence Research Labs (MIR Labs), USA, and SouthAsian University, Delhi, India.

ISDA 2017 brings together researchers, engineers, developers, and practitionersfrom academia and industry working in all interdisciplinary areas of intelligentsystems and system engineering to share their experiences, and to exchange andcross-fertilize their ideas. The aim of ISDA 2017 is to serve as a forum for thedissemination of state-of-the-art research and development of intelligent systems,intelligent technologies, and applications. ISDA 2017 was organized in conjunctionwith the 7th World Congress on Information and Communication Technologies(WICT 2017).

The themes of the contributions and scientific sessions range from theories toapplications, reflecting a wide spectrum of the coverage of intelligent systems andcomputational intelligence areas. ISDA 2017 received submissions from over 30countries, and each paper was reviewed by at least 5 reviewers in a standardpeer-review process. Based on the recommendation by 5 independent referees,finally about 100 papers were accepted for publication in the proceedings publishedby Springer, Verlag.

Many people have collaborated and worked hard to produce the successful ISDA2017 conference. First, we would like to thank all the authors for submitting theirpapers to the conference, for their presentations and discussions during the con-ference. Our thanks go to Program Committee members and reviewers, who carriedout the most difficult work by carefully evaluating the submitted papers.

Shri Ramswaroop Memorial University, Lucknow, UP, [email protected]

Abstract. Technological advancements in cognitive learning suggest significantchanges in methods of teaching and learning process. A Constrained CognitiveLearning (CCL) model links various forms of cognitive learning methods with arestrictive domain. The main objective of this research study is to propose a CCLscheme that integrates cognitive learning theories and instructional prescriptionsto achieve an effective learning environment for the basic education system inrural India. It improves both knowledge acquisition and employment in optimizedway. Furthermore, our objective is that, the proposed research contributes inpromoting the dialogue between professional learners, academic researchers andpractitioners that increasingly brings empirical educational and research orienta‐tion into the contemporary educational environment across the rural India. Ourfocus is to plan such a cognitive learning environment so that the learner not onlyacquire knowledge but also improve their cognitive abilities to apply their knowl‐edge for the employment and extend their knowledge depth to move towardsresearch oriented innovative skills.

1 Introduction

“Our profession has always stood at the interface of person and environment-a tenuous placeto be theoretically, since no theory has to date effectively spanned this bridge”.

Cooper (Educationist), 1979

Learning is a continuous pattern of perceiving various goings-on and attainingknowledge from them. The learning process leads to change in behaviors’, increase inthe intellect levels and the ways to analyze and process the perceived information. Theanalysis of the learning process is significant for student-centered learning environmentto enhance the learning abilities of the students. The students vary greatly in their poten‐tial to grasp any new information. Their attitude of apprehension is very low as they donot try to engage themselves towards the understanding of the new subject. The Learningtheories paramount the learning propensities by analyzing the learning patterns andunraveling the ways of perception, perseverance and exploitation of the knowledge.

As per the quote of Jean Piaget:

“The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilitiesfor a child to invent and discover, to create men who are capable of doing new things.”

With this objective, Learning Theories have proposed various models for anenhanced learning process. The Learning theories have been broadly categorized in 3models as Behaviorism, Cognitivism and Constructivism. The behaviorism, fabricatedby John Watson, is the study of learner’s behaviour. The conditioning of the learner isdone via reinforcement (rewards) or punishment which is perceptible from the behaviourof the learner Greeno (1996). The Cognitivism stemmed from Gestalt psychology,explains the learning as processing of information gained as past experiences. Thistheory focuses on thinking caliber of an individual with a previously owned knowledgeregarding the subject matter. The Behaviorist expostulate learning process as the incre‐mental pattern of change in behaviour according to the conditioning of individual i.e.the conditioning is exhibited by the behaviour of the learner. It prepares students forperforming in a knlearning is the mental escalation instead of a behavioral reform. Thepersistent knowledge acquisition upshots the mental structure which aids the individualin resolving novel issues. The psychoown state of affairs. The individuals fail to enactin any inconclusive environment. They lack the problem solving and creative thinkingcapabilities. The Cognitivist theory juxtaposes the Behaviorist theory by propoundingthat logist, Jean Piaget gave a constructive approach to learning as Constructivism. Itaccentuates the students to intensively partake in acquiring knowledge for themselves.Where Cognitivism is based on previous knowledge, Constructivism focuses on strivingto achieve a novel information with the help of previous knowledge thus providing betterperceivance and exploitation. The learner is free to choose his goal which is not the casein Behaviorism/Cognitivism where it is confined to a predetermined set of goalsHannafin (2010).

The Curricular and instructional design which strongly affect educational practiceand advancements extend the scope of learning paradigm of instructional design andmanagement Hill (1997). Cognitive system of learning can be analyzed from severalpoints of view in a dialogue between different parties cross and host. Their informalconversation provides the background for displaying examples and different styles oflearning, teaching, testing, and group dynamics situations. The applicability of cognitivesystem of teaching and learning is emphasized in two ways. First, not all learners havesame level of understanding that match the traditional lecture delivery and laboratoryformat of teaching. Second, certain teachers lecture delivery style is more effective withcertain types of students because they have matching cognitive styles and levels. Effortsshould be made, therefore, to ascertain cognitive styles, to match students and teacherswith compatible styles, and to develop individualized level of materials appropriatenessfor specific cognitive styles of learning.

2 Background

The cognitive learning has been the concern of various research studies in the recentpast. The study by Van Merriënboer and Ayres (2005) proposes a student centered

cognitive learning in web based environments. The research analyses the current patternof student learning from web based multimedia Iiyoshi et al. (2005). The research focusis on exposing students for a better learning experience as proved by various researches.Although the internet technologies may be fruitful for deep learning of the learners, therehas to be some curtailment for the exploration otherwise it can mislead the learners fromthe subject. Thus the web based learning needs to be refined for better learning results.The research in Pintrich (1999) draws the distinction between the self regulated learningand motivational learning. The research study briefs about various categories of selfregulated learning as cognitive learning strategies, self-regulatory strategies to controlcognition, and resource management strategies. The study aims to scrutinize the role ofself regulated learning techniques in student centered classroom environment. The studyby Ohlsson (2016) restrains the cognitive learning process to provide the learners asupervised learning environment. The research commingles the cognitive mechanismsby the user specific domains thus providing aid for Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS).The work in Roberson and Merriam (2005) explores the correlation among epistemo‐logical beliefs and conceptual change learning (CCL). The study reveals that priorknowledge and learning abilities of an individual are significant in conceptual learningprocess. Turning over to the rural population which has least exposure to the techno‐logical learning, various studies have been done to study the factors affecting the learningpatterns of students as well as the elderly/adults. The research by Qian and Alvermann(1995) takes into consideration the adults a rural town of America. The study revolvesaround the self-directed learning (SDL) also termed as personal learning of the elderlyin a rural domain. The results depict a positive response of adults towards making themost of learning resources such as computers, mobile phones etc. thus rendering selfdirected learning activities. An application of cognitive learning is presented by Rahmanet al. (2008) as providing assistance to the health workers in rural areas of Pakistan. Thestudy examined pregnant women over a period of 12 months. The cognitive learning ofhealth works in a resource deficient environment proved a successful intervention.

3 Constrained Cognitive Learning Scheme

3.1 Issues

The Basic Education in India, predominantly, in rural India needs to be brushed up asit will eventually enhance India’s economic development Roediger (2013). Accordingto the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER) in 2012, a larger fragment (96.5%)of children of age group 6–14 years are enrolled in some school. Although the quantityof this percentage has perked up, but the make-up of the knowledge measure is still notcompetent. This deterioration is the repercussion of various factors as teacher quality,classroom quality, curriculum concerns and other dismissive factors as motivation tostudy etc. The teacher based learning have shown appalling pattern of learning stature.There is a need to develop a supervised learning methodology so as to develop betterlearning scheme specifically designed for rural environments.

3.2 Research Questions

The research probes the repercussions of bringing in the restrictive cognitive learninginto the current learning paradigm. The study aims to give the way outs for followingquestions:

Q1. What are the factors in dominance by introducing Constrained Cognitive Learning(CCL) in curriculum of rural area students?Q2. How can the CCL paradigm up-skill the teachers in rural areas?Q3. What determinants can motivate the students for CCL?Q4. What is the stumbling block the pavement for quality learning?

3.3 Methodology

The Constrained Cognitive Learning (CCL) scheme proposes learning in 2 phases Up-skill phase and Learning phase in recurrence depicted by Fig. 1.

Fig. 1. Constrained cognitive learning scheme

The up-skill phase involve perk up the teachers in the existing environ. This phaserecapitulate for 3 steps: Priming, Probing and Proficiency. The first step, Priming ofteachers is done to enhance their current skills as per the student apriori knowledge. Itis important to consider the student stature before imparting knowledge to them of anew subject. It makes them have better understanding of the new subject. The teachersshould ruminate over their level of apprehension. The second step, Probing of theteachers is done to observe them if they are using any supplementary methods forimparting a better learning to the students. The reflection of positive probe results depict

Page 26: Ajith Abraham · Pranab Kr. Muhuri Azah Kamilah Muda ......Alexander Gelbukh, Instituto Politécnico Nacional, Mexico City, Mexico, for the exciting plenary talks. v We express our

that this phase is successful. The third step, Proficiency of the teachers is a significantconcern. The teacher’s proficiency is decided as per the result of probe. It should be veryclear that the teachers are provided the domains in which they are proficient in. It has asubstantial effect on the learning. The up-skill phase helps the supervisors to have finerpractical knowledge thus evolving out their exceptional aspects.

The Learning Event involves the student and his environment. Before irrupting intothe learning phase, the student is supposed to have a basic understanding of the subject.The learning event is a process involving 3 intrinsic units in chorus. In the Acquisitionpart, the student strives to acquire knowledge for a problem solving. The students aregiven elementary knowledge of the subject. With some understanding regarding asubject, the students are exposed to the practical problems of the subject area. Thelearner’s are expected to knock themselves out and explores the problem for a solution.The exploration of student is guided by a supervisor to fabricate the domain of hisanatomy. The supervisor is required to keep the domain of research restricted so as toguide the student for a correct path of knowledge.

4 Implementation: Data Collection and Analysis

4.1 Data Collection

The study involves participants of a school in a rural area near Lucknow, India. A changeof schedule of the teachers and children was done for a month. A prior text of student’sstature was done to be compared later on with the end results. The initial tests includequiz, interviews and brief problem solving sessions. The students were observed for 1week prior to the refashion of their curriculum. In the mean time, the up-skill session ofteachers was programmed as per the above mentioned scheme. The teachers weredispensed with various development stratagems such as video lectures, presentationsetc. They were enlightened with various teaching schemes and were appraised todisseminate teaching with a practical aspect. They were asked to put in for the studentsmore towards practical learning. This scheme also objected to perceive to best of theskills of the teachers and thus making them involve in subjects of their proficiencies.

The program commenced with a reprogrammed curriculum and a schedule withsome sessions of problem solving in a practical environments. For instance, the studentswere taken to fields to learn about the crops and they free to explore the environ. TheCCL scheme decreased the theory sessions and replaced it with more of practicalsessions. They were also exposed to various technologies in the area of their subjects.This was done to make students more jobs oriented as they can have an idea of what aretheir special aspects and they can pursue their higher education in the same to achievetheir goals. The students were probed once every week for their performance. Theinquest involved comprehensive problem solving and quizzes sessions. Table 1 showsthe standard deviation of students as well as supervisors computed on the basis of ques‐tionnaire conducted at various intervals of the program.

4.2 Analysis

The CCL scheme focuses on introducing supervision in previous cognitive learningscheme. The up-skilling of the supervisors has improved the overall results of theprogram. The average probing result of the teachers has improved significantly.

The development programs have been rated as positive by the faculties as theythemselves have shown better performance also due to the restriction introduced as theproficiency part of up-skill phase. The higher the standard deviation, the parametersdepict a wider distribution of values. Figure 2 depicts growing graph from the 6–8 yearstudents to the 14–16 year students. This demonstrates that the students from the agegroup 10–16 year have a good effect of CCL scheme. The exploration skills of thestudents exhibit tremendous amelioration in their problem solving skills with significantincrease in standard deviation of the overall performance.

The above research findings were verified by the Chi square tests to determine thefitness of various variables among each others. The results of the tests were found fruitfulas the chi values achieved are lower. The small values of chi square signify that theresults have proved to be as expected. The comparison of chi values achieved forResponsiveness and Satisfaction of the students can be depicted in the Fig. 2.

CCL are the lack of resources like electricity, internet connectivity, inadequate curric‐ulum design and lack of technology usage as learning practices.

5 Future Research Directions

The initial introduction of cognitive style of learning as an instructional parameter at thecollege level; however, now it is also applicable and become effective to the secondaryand elementary levels as well. The certain dimensions of cognitive learning practicesdepend a lot upon interactions of host and receivers. The effects of CCL scheme will beto a greater extent if the supervisors are aware of the student capabilities and can super‐vise the learners to enhance their skills in a effectual manner. The current CCL paradigmcan be extended to introduce an Ingenious Learning System (ILS) which can adapt tothe current learner stature and supervises the learner accordingly.

6 Conclusion

The CCL scheme is program proposed for the basic education system in rural India. Themain objective is to combine practical aspects of the learning into the current curriculumand also improving the curriculum to make it a conceptual one. The up-skill and learningphase has a stupendous improvement in the problem solving of students and also theproficiencies of the teachers. This research proved efficacious to accomplish the ultimategoal of qualitative learning program.
