Lynn Santelmann – Teaching of Psychology, 2024
Introduction: Psycholinguistics presents a challenge to teaching and learning because of the many abstract models in the field. Language-related games provide a vehicle for students to ground and demonstrate their understanding of these models. Statement of the problem: Models in psycholinguistics are challenging to teach and learn because they…

Egan, John D. – New Directions for Student Leadership, 2022
To advance games as a teaching strategy, leadership educators may benefit from a common understanding of associated terms. However, achieving this purpose is complicated by no agreed upon definition of game and scholarly debate around terms such as gamification. This article explores gaming terms and proposes a framework intended to provide a…

Mauro H. AndrĂ© – Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators, 2024
Student-centered pedagogical models (e.g., games-based approaches) have been encouraging physical education teachers to teach team and individual sports with game forms (small-sided and modified games) that promote play time for all students. These teaching methodologies promote students' motivation and engagement and enable an easier transition…

Brackenbury, Tim; Kopf, Lisa – Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 2022
Purpose: Serious games and gamification are evidence-based forms of game-based learning that facilitate student/client instruction. Serious games are activities that directly incorporate educational content into games; gamification integrates characteristics of games into nongame activities. They both promote learning by increasing students'…

Brunsdon, Jamie Jacob; Walker, David Ian – Journal of Moral Education, 2022
This paper articulates how the teaching of movement, physical activity and sport, through formal education and schooling, and the medium of physical education, affords opportunities for twenty-first-century character education. We begin by outlining our theoretical framework for character education and identify how character-traits developed…

Dichev, Christo; Dicheva, Darina; Irwin, Keith – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2020
The majority of user models in gamification are based on user's gamer personality. However, the motivations driving individuals' learning behavior differ from their motivations when playing. There is no evidence that learners' experiences in gamified activities are described by these models. Thus, an alternative model capturing learners'…

von Leipzig, Tanja; Lutters, Eric; Hummel, Vera; Schutte, Cornè – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2022
Dynamic personalization of learning trajectories that integrate different perspectives and variable scenarios is a viable way to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of training and education. Serious games offer a designated platform for this, by aggregating learner interactions, and using these to dynamically configure, adjust and tailor the…

Pleasants, Jacob – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Recent science education reforms emphasize the goal of developing students' science and engineering practices. To foreground those practices during science instruction, teachers need conceptual tools to guide their instructional decision-making. In this conceptual paper, I propose that thinking about science and engineering activities as educative…

Geden, Michael; Emerson, Andrew; Carpenter, Dan; Rowe, Jonathan; Azevedo, Roger; Lester, James – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2021
Game-based learning environments are designed to provide effective and engaging learning experiences for students. Predictive student models use trace data extracted from students' in-game learning behaviors to unobtrusively generate early assessments of student knowledge and skills, equipping game-based learning environments with the capacity to…

In recent years, game-based learning has shown significant promise for creating engaging and effective learning experiences. Developing models that can predict whether students will struggle with mastering certain concepts could guide adaptive support to assist students with mastering those concepts. Game-based learning environments offer…

Marek, Michael W. – International Journal of Computer-Assisted Language Learning and Teaching, 2020
This article proposes a Standard Model of CALL, i.e., a compilation of fundamental theories and practices that should always be considered when creating an instructional design for the Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL). This proposed model is inspired by the standard model of physics which is the widely accepted understanding about how…
