We are delighted to announce the publication of the first issue
of JEDM -- the Journal of Educational Data Mining.
We would like to thank the hard work of our editorial board
and anonymous reviewers in selecting, from the excellent submissions
received, three articles that provide important and novel findings
and perspectives in emerging areas of Educational Data Mining.
In this issue, we have, available for free on the web:
Tara Madhyastha and Earl Hunt mine multiple-choice assessment data
to discover conceptual structure, and inform instructors
about the relative difficulty of different items.

Saleema Amershi and Cristina Conati build user models for exploratory
learning environments, using both log data and eye-tracking data, with
a combination of supervised and unsupervised methods.

Ryan Baker and Kalina Yacef review the history and current trends in
the field of Educational Data Mining (EDM). The most-cited papers in
EDM between 1995 and 2005 are listed, and they discuss these papers'
influence on the EDM community and beyond.

We encourage everyone in the EDM community to submit their work to the JEDM
journal. Our goal is to produce a journal of the highest possible quality, as a
service to the EDM community. A journal is only as good as the papers
it receives to
review, and the reviews it receives from its editorial board and
special reviewers. We appreciate those of you who have submitted to or
have reviewed for JEDM, and welcome the
community's future participation.
Best regards,
Kalina Yacef, Editor
Ryan S.J.d. Baker, Tiffany Barnes, Joseph E. Beck, Associate Editors
