Direct linkSeyedahmad Rahimi; Valerie J. Shute – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Research fields related to learning (e.g., educational technology and learning sciences) have historically focused on what questions using traditional methods (e.g., comparing different learning tools and methods). New methodologies that are grounded in learning, engagement, and motivational theories are needed to additionally address the how…

Corinna S. Martarelli; Josua Dubach; Natalie Schelleis; Trix Cacchione; Sebastian Tempelmann – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2025
Virtual reality (VR) can provide access to otherwise inaccessible aspects of the world and thus promote science learning. We developed a VR learning tool about the water cycle, with 11 lessons for classroom teaching at the primary level. We assessed prior knowledge before a four-week intervention and learning outcomes directly after the…

Kuan-Fu Chen; Gwo-Jen Hwang; Mei-Rong Alice Chen – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Many studies have incorporated concept maps into digital games to enable learners to make connections between subject concepts in the game. However, most learners do not associate spontaneously with the thematic concepts in the game but need to be facilitated by effective scaffolding mechanisms to reconceptualize the learning process and content.…

Kim, Yanghee; Tscholl, Michael – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
This study examined the affordances of an embodied humanoid robot to engage children in play and learning from the perspective of embodied cognition in two studies as part of multiyear design research. In Study One, we observed how the robot's embodiment, accompanied by its sensors and movements, elicited embodied reactions of eleven children…

Science Created by You (SCY) learning environments are computer-based environments in which students learn about science topics in the context of addressing a socio-scientific problem. Along their way to a solution for this problem students produce many types of intermediate products or learning objects. SCY learning environments center the entire…

Laine, Teemu H.; Nygren, Eeva; Dirin, Amir; Suk, Hae-Jung – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2016
Lack of motivation and of real-world relevance have been identified as reasons for low interest in science among children. Game-based learning and storytelling are prominent methods for generating intrinsic motivation in learning. Real-world relevance requires connecting abstract scientific concepts with the real world. This can be done by…

Segedy, James R.; Kinnebrew, John S.; Biswas, Gautam – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2013
Betty's Brain is an open-ended learning environment in which students learn about science topics by teaching a virtual agent named Betty through the construction of a visual causal map that represents the relevant science phenomena. The task is complex, and success requires the use of metacognitive strategies that support knowledge acquisition,…
