Background and Context: In spite of the decades spent developing software visualization (SV), doubts still remain regarding their effectiveness. Furthermore, student engagement plays an important role in improving SV effectiveness as it is correlated with many positive academic outcomes. It has been shown that the existing SV has failed to engage…

Burin, Debora I.; Barreyro, Juan P.; Saux, Gastón; Irrazábal, Natalia C. – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2015
Introduction: In contemporary information societies, reading digital text has become pervasive. One of the most distinctive features of digital texts is their internal connections via hyperlinks, resulting in non-linear hypertexts. Hypertext structure and previous knowledge affect navigation and comprehension of digital expository texts. From the…

A Web Browser Interface to Manage the Searching and Organizing of Information on the Web by Learners
Li, Liang-Yi; Chen, Gwo-Dong – Educational Technology & Society, 2010
Information Gathering is a knowledge construction process. Web learners make a plan for their Information Gathering task based on their prior knowledge. The plan is evolved with new information encountered and their mental model is constructed through continuously assimilating and accommodating new information gathered from different Web pages. In…

Law, Effie Lai-Chong; Blazic, Borka Jerman; Pipan, Matic – Behaviour & Information Technology, 2007
No systematic empirical study on investigating the effects of performing task variants on user cognitive strategy and behaviour in usability tests and on learnability of the system being tested has been documented in the literature. The current use-inspired basic research work aims to identify the underlying cognitive mechanisms and the practical…

King, Laurel A. – ProQuest LLC, 2009
Understanding the user and customizing the interface to augment cognition and usability are goals of human computer interaction research and design. Yet, little is known about the influence of individual visual-verbal information presentation preferences on visual navigation and screen element usage. If consistent differences in visual navigation…

Blessing, Stephen B.; Gilbert, Stephen B.; Ourada, Stephen; Ritter, Steven – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2009
Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) that employ a model-tracing methodology have consistently shown their effectiveness. However, what evidently makes these tutors effective, the cognitive model embedded within them, has traditionally been difficult to create, requiring great expertise and time, both of which come at a cost. Furthermore, an…
