LearningRlab: Educational R Package for Statistics in Computer Science Engineering
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper describes and evaluates the educational interest of LearningRlab, an educational R package developed for teaching statistics in computer science engineering. The package was developed by final degree project students to be used as an educational environment for statistics students who evaluated the package and provided feedback for future versions. Such a process increases the motivation of both groups of students. This paper presents how the use of the R packages conceived and developed for engineering education can improve the learning process in the computer science engineering bachelor’s degree. Two different evaluations, one performed by a group of statistics students, and the other performed by final degree project students, were used to evaluate the impact on the learning process of the first version of the package to develop the second version of the package, which corrects and enhances the first version. The evaluation results show a positive effect on the learning process in both subjects. The analysis of the learning outcomes reflected in the grades of the experimental and control groups demonstrates that LearningRlab can be used as a teaching aid for statistics and final degree project subjects of the computer science engineering degree. The average laboratory grade of the students who used the package (5.76) was noticeably higher than the average laboratory grade of students who did not use it (1.84).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
