Proposal of fuzzy logic-based students' learning assessment model

The cognitive diagnosis is defined as the abstract process of gathering information about the student's learning and transforming that information based on instructional decisions. A model that captures the expert knowledge of experienced professors and is used to design a cognitive diagnostic model based on Fuzzy Logic is presented in this article. Particularly, a diagnosis system with four variables (three input variables and one output variable) and 27 fuzzy rules.
