Abstract

With the increase of the situation and reasons for staying at home, for example, the spread of COVID-19, online education at home has correspondingly been of increasing importance in our daily learning, covering not only academic education but also adult education. Compared with offline face-to-face classroom teaching, the online learning system can capture a lot of students' learning data, such as learning duration, class rate, class completion rate, etc., which can be applied in further education design. Based on these data, one can explore the possibilities to promote the development of online education, using techniques like machine learning and deep learning. Such efforts also provide educational institutions and teachers with more analytical solutions to problems, making intelligent education play a greater role in advanced education, and help students to improve their study effectiveness specifically. Nevertheless, there still lacks of a systematic study on the direction of this work, which hardly depicts the overall development. In this paper, we first try to bridge this gap by sufficient investigation and analysis. We have studied the mainstream efforts on Intelligent learning Online Education (called ILOE) from two different dimensions, i.e., technology and task types. For each dimension, we analyze the characteristics of related works. Furthermore, we also provide useful suggestions for the future improvement of ILOE.
