Marta Sobocinski; Daryn Dever; Megan Wiedbusch; Foysal Mubarak; Roger Azevedo; Sanna Järvelä – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
This study examines the embodied ways in which learners monitor their cognition while learning about exponential functions in an immersive virtual reality (VR) based game, "Pandemic" by Prisms of Reality. Traditionally, metacognitive monitoring has been assessed through behavioural traces and verbalised instances. When learning in VR,…

Oyserman, Daphna; Dawson, Andrew – Journal of Experimental Education, 2021
We build on identity-based motivation theory to integrate research on in-person and virtual learning environments so that we can articulate which features of virtual learning environments are likely to support or impede learning and identity exploration. Although students experience their identities as stable anchors for meaning-making and action,…
