Different methods supporting educational softwares: Contribution of fuzzy logic model to educational softwares

Educational software is defined as a computer software primarily used by students for the purpose of self-learning, practice making and self-testing. Teaching software out of educational ones will be studied and contribution of fuzzy logic model, one of the artificial intelligence techniques, to educational software will be discussed in the study. Existing data is assessed with the aim of solving the problem and diverting method by using fuzzy logic model, as a new approach, and its example are presented in the study. Similar to human logic, effective results depending on indefinite verbal knowledge can be produced in the systems of fuzzy logic. In this study, Mamdani type fuzzy logic model will be developed based on the students' grades, student's understanding and teacher's opinion results. Moreover, recommendation on educational software and teaching methods in compliance with the perception and ability of the student will be provided as the output of this system. If this study will be successful, our system will guide instructors in selection of teaching software appropriate to students' perception level and in teaching methodology for students.
