Identifying patterns of epistemic emotions with respect to interactions in massive online open courses using deep learning and social network analysis

作者:

Highlights:

• Patterns of epistemic emotions with respect to interactions are investigated.

• Four patterns of core, neighbor, scattered, and peripheral learners are identified.

• Four patterns tended to expand relationships by votes and construct deep communication by comment and reply interactions.

• The core and neighbor learners' patterns demonstrated significantly higher epistemic emotions than the other patterns.

• A framework is proposed to describe respective roles of epistemic emotions and interactions.
