Nicolai Plintz; Dirk Ifenthaler – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2024
This study aims to develop a preliminary model for the content validation of serious games, specifically to assess two cybersecurity games designed for children aged 8-13 years as part of the Erasmus+ project "SuperCyberKids". Using a scoping review of databases from pedagogy, psychology, and computer science, we identified current…

Sonsoles López-Pernas; Mohammed Saqr; Aldo Gordillo; Enrique Barra – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Learning analytics methods have proven useful in providing insights from the increasingly available digital data about students in a variety of learning environments, including serious games. However, such methods have not been applied to the specific context of educational escape rooms and therefore little is known about students' behavior while…

Kirsi Syynimaa; Kirsi Lainema; Timo Lainema – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2024
The application of digital game-based learning (GBL) methods has lately received more attention in higher education (HE). An extensive body of previous investigations has recognised the potential of instructional games to advance the learning of appropriate work life skills. However, there seems to be a lack of understanding in the current…

Ekin, Cansu Cigdem; Gul, Abdulmenaf – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2022
This research aims to conduct a bibliometric study to describe how game-based educational research is structured and how it has evolved over time. For this purpose, bibliometric analysis has been used to analyze 4980 publications indexed by the Elsevier SCOPUS database between 1967 and May 2021. The related publications were evaluated by analyzing…

Kuba, Renata; Rahimi, Seyedahmad; Smith, Ginny; Shute, Valerie; Dai, Chih-Pu – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Over three years, our research team has designed various learning supports for promoting content knowledge and solving game levels. In this case study, we examined the optimal design and the evaluation of learning support videos for a physics educational game. Often studies focus on investigating the effects of research-based principles without a…

Zhang, Lu; Shang, Junjie; Pelton, Tim; Pelton, Leslee Francis – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2020
With the advent of mobile technologies, well-designed fraction apps can be used to help children gain fraction knowledge, a challenging topic for both teachers and students. The present pilot study adopted a quasi-experimental design to investigate whether children can learn fraction concepts equally well if half of the lesson time (20 min) is…

McCarthy, Kathryn S.; Watanabe, Micah; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2020
The Design Implementation Framework, or DIF, is a design approach that evaluates learner and user experience at multiple points in the development of intelligent tutoring systems. In this chapter, we explore how DIF was used to make system modifications to iSTART, a game-based intelligent tutoring system for reading comprehension. Using DIF as a…
