Fátima Monteiro; Armando Sousa – Journal of Environmental Education, 2024
Faced with the current unsustainability and recognizing the importance of engineering (and technology) in the Capitalocene, it is important to develop educational approaches that facilitate the awareness and training of engineering students to the sustainable future's construction. The main objective of the study is the evaluation of the…

Jan Gunis; L'ubomir Snajder; L'ubomir Antoni; Peter Elias; Ondrej Kridlo; Stanislav Krajci – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2025
Contribution: We present a framework for teachers to investigate the relationships between attributes of students' solutions in the process of problem solving or computational thinking. We provide visualization and evaluation techniques to find hidden patterns in the students' solutions which allow teachers to predict the specific behavior of…

Rachelle Emily Rawlinson; Nicola Whitton – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2024
The increasingly neoliberal course of Higher Education is linked to rises in student anxiety around assessment and increased fear of the consequences of failure. Making mistakes is an inevitable part of any learning process (and of life generally) and managing failure in a productive and positive way is crucial for success and wellbeing beyond…

Lu Cao; Polly K. Lai; Hongzhi Yang – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2024
This study explored the use of an innovative instructional approach called Productive Failure (PF) to design an educational game and its support. The study then examined the effects of two different types of instruction--PF vs. Direct Instruction (DI)--on learning genetics and relevant mathematical knowledge in a Game-Based Learning (GBL)…

Jeremy Bernier – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Play has been discussed by mathematicians and mathematics educators as essential to mathematical progress and has been widely acknowledged to have a role in learning. Yet, play is rarely acknowledged, leveraged, or studied for mathematics learners beyond early childhood. Moreover, there are theoretical and empirical challenges with designing for…

Carmen Barquero-Ruiz; David Kirk – Curriculum Studies in Health and Physical Education, 2024
Building on the original work of Bunker and Thorpe and their Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach to physical education, there is now a proliferation of Game Based Approaches (GBA) in the research literature (Bunker & Thorpe, 1982, A model for the teaching of games in secondary schools. "Bulletin of Physical Education,"…

Peter H. F. Ng; Peter Q. Chen; Astin C. H. Wu; Ken S. K. Tai; Chen Li – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
This study examines a practical teaching and learning cycle tailored to integrate cutting-edge technologies (artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) game development) and social entrepreneurship within a "STEM with meaning" approach. This cycle, rooted in service learning and the 5E constructivist teaching model (engage,…

Rachel M. Doughty – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Escape rooms are making their way into the chemistry classroom as a learning tool. However, escape rooms require a large amount of preparation and setup, and they are only novel and exciting for a single play-through. For escape room games to be incorporated into multiple class periods, they must be streamlined for reuse. In this work, I introduce…

Pavlos Toukiloglou; Stelios Xinogalos – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
This study examines the effectiveness of a collaborative support method in enhancing programming learning outcomes in a serious game. The game Code Hasp was developed to facilitate the comparison between two support methods, worked examples and a collaborative peer support approach. A total of 111 elementary school students participated, divided…

Jewoong Moon; Fengfeng Ke; Zlatko Sokolikj – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2025
In this exploratory study, we designed and validated game-based performance tasks to assess the development of representational flexibility in autistic adolescents through virtual reality (VR)-based training. Representational flexibility, a critical cognitive ability, involves attention switching, generating representations, and recognizing…

Yu-Cheng Lin; Shu-Yun Chien; Huei-Tse Hou – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
The training of hostel service skills emphasizes the application of procedural knowledge and complex problem-solving skills, and with the development of education technology, game-based learning that mixes virtual reality (VR) and physical games has begun to be emphasized. In this study, we proposed a multi-dimensional scaffolding design framework…

Edith Debrenti – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
Using game-based learning (GBL) and digital game-based learning (DGBL) as a teaching and learning environment can be a pedagogical resource and a good strategy in the classroom to support mathematical learning (Santos et al., 2023). Even though primary school teachers are demonstrating strong preferences for using non-digital games instead of…

Lili Yan; Chungsoo Na; Jina Kang – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) includes multiple socio-cognitive processes that can be challenging to investigate. Constructing arguments is a key practice at the intersection of CPS and science learning. To understand how students construct arguments and develop science knowledge during CPS, we focus on team synchrony--the extent of…

Ibrahim Bozan; Erdal Taslidere – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Coding and digital game design activities have been used in recent years to contribute to students' academic achievement and twenty-first century skills. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the 5E model enriched with coding and digital game design activities (5EECD) on gifted students' academic achievement and problem-solving skills. A…
