Resing, Wilma C. M.; Bakker, Merel; Elliott, Julian G.; Vogelaar, Bart – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
This study examined whether computerized dynamic testing by utilizing a robot would lead to different patterns in children's (aged 6-9 years) potential for learning and strategy use when solving series-completion tasks. The robot, in a "Wizard of Oz" setting, provided instructions and prompts during dynamic testing. It was found that a…
