Ji-Eun Lee; Amisha Jindal; Sanika Nitin Patki; Ashish Gurung; Reilly Norum; Erin Ottmar – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
This paper demonstrated how to apply Machine Learning (ML) techniques to analyze student interaction data collected in an online mathematics game. Using a data-driven approach, we examined 1) how different ML algorithms influenced the precision of middle-school students' (N = 359) performance (i.e. posttest math knowledge scores) prediction and 2)…

Liu, Min; Li, Chenglu; Pan, Zilong; Pan, Xin – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
More research is needed on how to best use analytics to support educational decisions and design effective learning environments. This study was to explore and mine the data captured by a digital educational game designed for middle school science to understand learners' behavioral patterns in using the game, and to use evidence-based findings to…

Clark, Douglas B.; Sengupta, Pratim – Interactive Learning Environments, 2020
This paper situates a critical review of studies that we have conducted within the broader research literature to analyze the affordances of integrating modeling within disciplinarily-integrated games from computational thinking and science as practice perspectives. Across the studies, the analyses pursue two themes: (a) the role of agent-based…

Greer, Mary; Lin, Lijia; Atkinson, Robert K. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
The purpose of this study was to determine whether playing "Quest for the Code"™, a computer game designed to teach children about asthma, would help healthy children acquire knowledge about and attitudes towards asthma and whether the beneficial effects would be maintained over time. The sample consisted of 155 children from four middle…

Cheng, Ya-Wen; Wang, Yuping; Cheng, I-Ling; Chen, Nian-Shing – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
Collaborative learning has long been proved to be a crucial agent for enhancing students' social skills, problem-solving abilities and individual learning performance. Understanding how students move from one phase to another in their collaboration process can inform educators of how best to facilitate such learning. However, this is still an area…
