Hsiu-Ling Chen; Abebayehu Yohannes; Ning-Li Hung – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2025
The escape room game is an example of digital game-based learning that has become a popular learning tool in recent years. However, not enough is known about enthusiasm for and promising reports of the use of escape rooms in education. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of escape room game-based civics education on eighth…

Danielle M. Olson; Tyler Musgrave; Divya Gumudavelly; Chárdee A. Galán; Sarita Schoenebeck; D. Fox Harrell; Riana E. Anderson – Journal of Youth Development, 2023
Police brutality--including the incidents that mobilized collective outrage and action across the world during the summer of 2020--has negatively impacted the psychological health of Black youth for generations. Police harassment is a persistent form of racial discrimination that Black youth frequently navigate (Brunson, 2007), and particularly as…

Eileen McGivney – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2025
Agency, or the capacity to take intentional actions, is considered one of the primary affordances of virtual reality (VR) for learning. VR is expected to increase learners' agency because it allows for full-body interactivity from a first-person perspective, giving them novel ways of interacting with the digital environment. Yet, agency in…

Mitchell J. Nathan; Candace Walkington; Michael I. Swart – Grantee Submission, 2022
Findings synthesized across five empirical, laboratory-and classroom-based studies of high school and college students engaged in geometric reasoning and proof production during single and multi-session investigations (346 participants overall) are presented. The findings converge on several design principles for embodied mathematical thinking and…

Anderson, Katelyn; Grudens-Schuck, Nancy; Valek, Robert; Schulte, Lisa A.; Smalley, Scott W. – Natural Sciences Education, 2020
Digital games, especially simulations, have supported student learning outcomes in the areas of science and agriculture in classrooms and nonformal settings. Simulations contribute robustly to student achievement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), and agriculture content areas, especially when they are aligned with…

Effects of the Augmented Reality Game Pokémon GO on Fitness and Fatness in Secondary School Students
Martínez-López, Emilio J.; López-Serrano, Sebastián; De La Torre-Cruz, Manuel; Ruiz-Ariza, Alberto – Health Education Journal, 2022
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of 8 weeks of Pokémon GO on physical fitness (cardiorespiratory fitness [CRF], Speed/Agility [S/A], and muscular strength [MS]) and fatness (body mass index [BMI], percentage of body fat [%BF], and waist-hip index), as well as possible differences between weekly physical activity (PA)…

Egea-Vivancos, Alejandro; Arias-Ferrer, Laura – E-Learning and Digital Media, 2021
The extension of technology in current society has encouraged teachers to introduce products based on VR and IVR in their classrooms, especially video games. In this paper the specific role of video games in cultural heritage and history teaching is analyzed. Moreover, the results of recent research on the application of video games in Secondary…

Briscoe, Michael – Science Teacher, 2019
FLEET is a free ship-design simulator that reaches students in their native environment--video games. It is also a physics simulator that applies content first learned through hands-on scientific investigations. Using FLEET, students design and use ships for various naval missions by mastering scientific concepts such as force, energy, and work,…

Bogusevschi, Diana; Muntean, Cristina; Muntean, Gabriel-Miro – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2020
A common problem in many schools is the lack of equipment and materials in their science laboratories due to both limited budget available to the school and high maintenance cost of the lab. The latest technological advancements provide great opportunities for schools to go over the budget and cost issues by using 3D virtual learning environments…

Poy, Raquel; García, Marcos – Education for Information, 2019
Digital games have a greater ease of construction of new meanings in a virtual world, more affordable, simple and comprehensible by the students than the real world, and in which the individual differences that occur in the real world tend to fade thanks to the interpretation of a character with different characteristics from the real ones.…

Russ, Rosemary S.; Wangen, Steve; Nye, D. Leith; Shapiro, R. Benjamin; Strinz, Will; Ferris, Michael – Science Teacher, 2015
To help teachers engage students in discussions about sustainability, the authors designed Fields of Fuel, a multiplayer, web-based simulation game that allows players to explore the environmental and economic trade-offs of a realistic sustainable system. Computer-based simulations of real-world phenomena engage students and have been shown to…

We have iteratively designed and researched five digital games focusing on Newtonian dynamics for middle school classrooms during the past seven years. The designs have evolved dramatically in terms of the roles and relationships of the formal representations, phenomenological representations, and control schemes. Phenomenological representations…

Schwarz, Claudiu – Journal of Educational Sciences, 2017
The term of implicit learning is still subject to controversy. "At least a dozen different definitions have been offered in the field" (Frensch & Rünger, 2003 p.13). While some scholars consider it downright inexistent (see Chun & Jiang, 1998), many others are trying to identify how we seem to acquire knowledge in absence of…

Adams, Deanne M.; Pilegard, Celeste; Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2016
Learning physics often requires overcoming common misconceptions based on naïve interpretations of observations in the everyday world. One proposed way to help learners build appropriate physics intuitions is to expose them to computer simulations in which motion is based on Newtonian principles. In addition, playing video games that require…
