Well, I'm really thinking of 2012, in the context of ALLS. There are a number of research projects under the ALLS umbrella that I would like to see come off the ground.
There's more novice programmer data, this time from Scheme, that needs to be analyzed.
There's a new toy coming. Some of you already know what it is. I'd like to see more affect-sensitive apps built using it along side some of our other, older toys.
The EDM workbench has to keep moving forward.
I'd like to see if we can incorporate some of the Bayesian Knowledge Tracing logic in the Aplusix data. I realize the features from Aplusix are different from those of the Cognitive Tutor, but perhaps there's a way to reinterpret the data using the BKT framework. Once that's done, of course, the agent's logic has to be updated and re-tested.
I'm going to need my usual a cast of thousands to get this done. There are some people already working with me this year who are likely to continue working with me next year. I'm losing most of my minions, er, students to graduation, and there's no telling whether there is a next wave coming to fill the spots they left behind.
