Data-Driven Decision-Making (DDDM) for Higher Education Assessments: A Case Study by Samuel Kaspi, Sitalakshmi Venkatraman

“…We demonstrate the application of the DDDM approach for an educational institute by analyzing the impact of transforming the assessments of 13 out of 27 subjects offered in a Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT) program as a case study. A comparison of data analysis performed before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic using different student learning measures such as failure rates and mean marks provides meaningful insights into the impact of assessment transformations. …”

On relating one-way classical and quantum communication complexities by Naresh Goud Boddu, Rahul Jain, Han-Hsuan Lin

“…A fundamental question in quantum information is the relationship between one-way quantum and classical communication complexities, i.e., how much shorter the message can be if Alice is sending a quantum state instead of bit strings? We make some progress towards this question with the following results. …”
