  abstract  = {We present a feature-rich knowledge tracing method that captures a student's
	acquisition and retention of knowledge during a foreign language phrase
	learning task. We model the student's behavior as making predictions under a
	log-linear model, and adopt a neural gating mechanism to model how the student
	updates their log-linear parameters in response to feedback.  The gating
	mechanism allows the model to learn complex patterns of retention and
	acquisition for each feature, while the log-linear parameterization results in
	an interpretable knowledge state. We collect human data and evaluate several
	versions of the model.},
