Anisha Gupta; Dan Carpenter; Wookhee Min; Jonathan Rowe; Roger Azevedo; James Lester – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2024
Reflection plays a critical role in learning. Game-based learning environments have significant potential to elicit and support student reflection by prompting learners to think critically about their own learning processes and performance. Stealth assessment models, used for unobtrusively assessing student competencies from evidence of game…

Lili Yan; Chungsoo Na; Jina Kang – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) includes multiple socio-cognitive processes that can be challenging to investigate. Constructing arguments is a key practice at the intersection of CPS and science learning. To understand how students construct arguments and develop science knowledge during CPS, we focus on team synchrony--the extent of…

Mufidah Firzanah Mihat – Journal of Science and Mathematics Education in Southeast Asia, 2024
The digital era's technological transformation has a wide range of beneficial effects on the science learning process. Game-based learning (GBL) is the use of game design ideas to learn about some topic while pupils are striving to do their best in the process. This study was carried out with the help of Educaplay apps ("Identify Me…

Andreas Giannakoulas; Stelios Xinogalos – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
This study critically reviews sixteen empirical studies that investigate the various difficulties that primary school students encounter while learning programming through educational games. Specifically, the challenges that students face in understanding basic programming concepts and the game elements that contribute to these difficulties, as…

Liu, Zhichun; Moon, Jewoong – Educational Technology & Society, 2023
In this study, we have proposed and implemented a sequential data analytics (SDA)-driven methodological framework to design adaptivity for digital game-based learning (DGBL). The goal of this framework is to facilitate children's personalized learning experiences for K-5 computing education. Although DGBL experiences can be beneficial, young…

Kuan-Fu Chen; Gwo-Jen Hwang; Mei-Rong Alice Chen – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Many studies have incorporated concept maps into digital games to enable learners to make connections between subject concepts in the game. However, most learners do not associate spontaneously with the thematic concepts in the game but need to be facilitated by effective scaffolding mechanisms to reconceptualize the learning process and content.…

Qing Yu; Kun Yu; Baomin Li – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Computer programming is regarded as an important skill for the future. However, many K-12 students face challenges and difficulties in learning traditional text-based programming. Block-based visual programming (BVP) can reduce the difficulty of learning programming and is seen as a potential programming education tool. Nevertheless, the effects…

Meishar-Tal, Hagit; Kesler, Avital – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study describes an action research study conducted by a teacher who used a digital game generator as a tool to develop thinking skills among primary school students with learning difficulties. Ten 4th-grade students participated in the programme. The students met with the teacher twice a week for six months. The meetings included creating…

Shian-Shyong Tseng; Tsung-Yu Yang; Wen-Chung Shih; Bo-Yang Shan – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
In this paper, to handle the problem of the quick evolution of cyber-security attacks, we developed the iMonsters board game and proposed the attack and defense knowledge self-evolving algorithm. Three versions of the iMonsters were launched in 2013, 2017, and 2019, respectively. Accordingly, the cyber-security ontology can be refined by the…

Rita Yeboah; Kwaku Darko Amponsah; Priscilla Commey Mintah; John Sedofia; Phyllis Bernice Kwarteng Donkor (Opare) – Education 3-13, 2025
This research explores how primary school teachers use games to enhance pupils' learning and development of conceptual knowledge. The study employs an illustrative case study design; data was collected through interviews with thirty (30) teachers who were selected using purposive sampling technique. Twenty teachers had some knowledge of game-based…

Boggio, Cynthia; Zaher, Ahmed; Bosse, Marie-Line – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
The present study assessed the effectiveness of the ECRIMO educational application designed to build first-grade level spelling skills. We tested whether using the app to teach spelling would be as effective as providing the same training using traditional paper exercises. The effect of integrating gamification into mobile learning apps, which has…

Wang, Yi-Hsuan – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This paper explores and sheds light on how various designs of game-based learning materials benefit music education. The developed games followed Gordon's music skill learning sequence of discrimination, and aimed to teach listening and visual skills for the middle C octave. Two genres of game-based learning materials were proposed, one with most…

Exergames (video games that promote cognitive and physical activity simultaneously) benefit executive function (EF) in elderly populations. It has been suggested that exergames may induce larger effects than cognitive or exercise training alone, but few reviews have synthesized the causal factors of exergames on EF from experimental research with…

Rajesh Syal, Samira – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Efforts taken to promote self-regulated learning (SRL) in elementary school have positive effects on learning outcomes. Few studies examine the role of motivation in relation to other SRL components, namely cognition and metacognition. Additionally, few SRL studies involving elementary students focus on motivational supports. Interventions that…

Liu, Min; Li, Chenglu; Pan, Zilong; Pan, Xin – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
More research is needed on how to best use analytics to support educational decisions and design effective learning environments. This study was to explore and mine the data captured by a digital educational game designed for middle school science to understand learners' behavioral patterns in using the game, and to use evidence-based findings to…
