Introduction: Achievements of students in higher education are influenced by several factors. From the students' perspective a key factor is the motivation, without which it is extremely difficult to make any progress, and from the teachers' perspective the conservative methodological culture is primarily responsible for the fact that students are…

Mark A. Burns; Valerie N. Johnson; Kellie S. Grasman; Sanaz Habibi; Kaylee A. Smith; Anna I. Kaehr; Malia F. Lacar; Brian F. Yam – Advances in Engineering Education, 2023
Many engineering courses rely on in-person lectures and textbooks for content delivery, with homework sets and exams for evaluating and reinforcing student progress. Yet some research studies have shown that exams--high-pressure, time-limited assessments--are detrimental to the learning process and unnecessarily increase students' stress. We…

Victoria Bonefont; Burton Carbino; Rana Zakerzadeh – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2022
This paper identifies an opportunity to integrate gamification in undergraduate biomedical engineering (BME) classrooms to alleviate student test anxiety and promote student perception of their academic performance. Gamification is a popular educational strategy that does not appear to be widely explored or adopted in higher education,…

Robinson, Andrew M.; Goodridge, Michelle – Journal of Political Science Education, 2021
Literature on simulation games stresses both the need for objective assessment of pedagogical effectiveness and the concern that such assessment may not be happening because it is too difficult. This article speaks to both points by presenting an approach to objectively assess the effectiveness of a simulation called the Human Rights Foreign…

To inform the development of gamified assessments, this study explored how students with or at risk for reading difficulties in Grades 6-8 (N = 202) perceived and interacted with a decoding assessment designed with gamification characteristics. Three data sources enhanced the methodological triangulation: observations and scores from testing,…

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…

Lynch, Collin F., Ed.; Merceron, Agathe, Ed.; Desmarais, Michel, Ed.; Nkambou, Roger, Ed. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
The 12th iteration of the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM 2019) is organized under the auspices of the International Educational Data Mining Society in Montreal, Canada. The theme of this year's conference is EDM in Open-Ended Domains. As EDM has matured it has increasingly been applied to open-ended and ill-defined tasks…
