MLE-based cognitive tool can aid students in increasing academic achievement and problem-solving ability. No longer are students constrained to only problem-solving from their textbook.Digital tools of this architecture can assist students in and outside of the classroom and on a varietyof mobile platforms. These results provide significant implications for the field by providing adata-driven, evidence-based solution for administrators and instructors to optimize instructionalstrategies, integrate emerging technological tools and facilitate anywhere-anytime learning for theubiquitous learner.References[1] J.
