作者:

Highlights:

• Our method orders courses prerequisite-aware for job-oriented purposes.

• We explore the pedagogical aspects of the generated orders.

• We construct a dataset indicating the relatedness of courses and terminologies.

• MDPOrd performs well at prioritizing related courses for a given terminology.

• MDPOrd orders courses with a shorter reference distance to their prerequisites.
