Abstract

Learning tests play an important role in both traditional learning and online learning. The traditional education test can only report students’ scores or abilities, but not their knowledge level, which is no longer satisfied with people’s requirements. In recent years, DINA model of cognitive diagnosis model has been widely used to diagnose students’ knowledge mastery. DINA model can dig out the students’ knowledge points and give feedback to the teachers, so that the teachers can make remedial plans for the students’ deficiencies in time. This paper first introduces the basic principle of DINA model and the improvement of DINA model in the field of education in recent years. Secondly, we introduce the development of Dina model under the trend of online education, and prove the availability of DINA model in online platform with experimental data. Finally, we predict and analyze the research direction of DINA algorithm in the future.
