Grobelina, Iwona; Mazurkiewicz, Malgorzata; Janus, Damian – Informatics in Education, 2023
Background: Petri nets are a formal specification technique for modelling of control processes and modern flexible manufacturing systems. Interpreted Petri nets take into account input and output signals, allowing to apply them in any control system or even in control part of a cyber-physical system. Due to the fact that Petri nets are not used in…

Chotika Wanglang; Kobkiat Sraubon; Pallop Piriyasurawong – Higher Education Studies, 2024
This research aims to develop a combining game-based learning with design thinking using block-based programming to enhance computational thinking and creative games for primary students and will be referred to as game-based learning from now on. The purpose of this research is to 1) develop a model for game-based learning, 2) develop the system…

Leonardou, Angeliki; Rigou, Maria; Panagiotarou, Aliki; Garofalakis, John – Smart Learning Environments, 2022
The primary question of this study is whether OLM and OSLM mechanisms, when used in a digital game, offer higher motivation. Furthermore, the study investigates whether a game's aesthetics and mechanics support players' intrinsic motivation. Both claims are tested through the design, implementation and pilot use of the Multiplication Game (MG). MG…

Breien, Fredrik S.; Wasson, Barbara – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
Previous research shows that digital game-based learning (DGBL) can have positive effects on engagement, motivation and learning, and that using narratives may reinforce these effects. A systematic review identified 15 DGBL systems that report effects from their use of narratives. A gap in the field, however, is the lack of a common model to…

Li, Ruo-Yu; Wang, Chang-Hwa – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The use of smart devices as media for digital learning constitutes a new-generation digital learning paradigm. Therefore, context-aware game-based learning has attracted considerable attention. Location-based games have not only positive effects on learning but also pronounced effects on culture and history. Accordingly, focusing on railway…

Paul R. Malinowski; Ben D. Kern; Tristan Wallhead – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2024
Purpose: To examine the contextual and personal factors that influence teachers' reported adoption of one or more instructional models (IMs). Methods: Participants (n = 25) were interviewed that reported adopting Sport Education; Teaching Games for Understanding; Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility; and/or Sports, Play, and Active…

Griffith, Anna – Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies in Education, 2023
This qualitative study explores how educators can foster creativity across disciplines through a conceptual framework for creative interdisciplinary collaboration. The article introduces the Creativity Lab process model, which generates collaboratively developed, multifaceted but cohesive project ideas. The author argues that while creativity and…

Emerson, Andrew; Min, Wookhee; Azevedo, Roger; Lester, James – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
Game-based learning environments hold significant promise for facilitating learning experiences that are both effective and engaging. To support individualised learning and support proactive scaffolding when students are struggling, game-based learning environments should be able to accurately predict student knowledge at early points in students'…

Simone Titus; Dick Ng'ambi – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2023
Although game-based learning has gained significant attention in higher education globally, it is difficult to harness its engagement and interactions to improve student success. This paper argues that the use of digital games has the potential to interrupt social practices and increase engagement and interaction, thereby fostering meaningful…

Jamshidifarsani, Hossein; Tamayo-Serrano, Paul; Garbaya, Samir; Lim, Theodore – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Training design for automatic skills has a vast domain of application, such as education, physical and cognitive rehabilitation, as well as sports, arts and professional training. Gamification concept used in technology-assisted training has the potential to increase motivation, engagement and adherence to the training programme. Currently, the…

Ishaq, Kashif; Rosdi, Fadhilah; Zin, Nor Azan Mat; Abid, Adnan – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
Digital learning environments have been gaining prominence during the last few years. In particular, the rising usage of mobile devices, including smartphones and tabs, has invited researchers to design and develop learning applications and games for such platforms. Mobile applications and games have been developed for learning languages like many…

Zebel-Al Tareq; Raja Jamilah Raja Yusof – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
Contribution: A problem-solving approach (PSA) model derived from major computational thinking (CT) concepts. This model can be utilized to formulate solutions for different algorithmic problems and translate them into effective active learning methods. Background: Different teaching approaches for programming are widely available; however, being…

Kumar, Abhilasha A.; Steyvers, Mark; Balota, David A. – Cognitive Science, 2021
Considerable work during the past two decades has focused on modeling the structure of semantic memory, although the performance of these models in complex and unconstrained semantic tasks remains relatively understudied. We introduce a two-player cooperative word game, Connector (based on the boardgame Codenames), and investigate whether…

Espinoza, Cecilia; Orvis, Kathryn S.; Brophy, Sean P. – Journal of Biological Education, 2022
This research investigates students' learning about the electron transport chain (ETC) process in photosynthesis by watching a video followed by playing a serious board game--"Electron Chute"--that models ETC. The learning objectives targeted enriching a mental model that students could use to explain the causal relationship of the ETC…

Toukiloglou, Pavlos; Xinogalos, Stelios – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Serious games are considered an effective method to engage students in programming education and have been increasingly used in classrooms. An important part of the learning process with serious games involves the presentation of the new concepts and the provided support to encounter student difficulties. Although the most common approach is the…
