Ünal Çakiroglu; Seval Bilgi – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
The aim of this explanatory study is to identify the causes of intrinsic cognitive load in programming process. For this purpose, a method based on two dimensions; programming knowledge types (syntactic, semantic, and strategic) and programming constructs was proposed. The proposed method was tested with high school students enrolled in Computer…

Jon-Chao Hong; Jhen-Ni Ye; Jian-Hong Ye; Ling-Wen Kung – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Attentional control theory indicates that concentration is considered an important variable that contributes to learning. There are some devices for players to practice their concentration, but there are few virtual reality (VR) designs which can increase the level of difficulty for students to discipline their mental concentration with…

Zheng, Juan; Xing, Wanli; Huang, Xudong; Li, Shan; Chen, Guanhua; Xie, Charles – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Research on self-regulated learning (SRL) in engineering design is growing. While SRL is an effective way of learning, however, not all learners can regulate themselves successfully. There is a lack of research regarding how student characteristics, such as science knowledge and design knowledge, interact with SRL. Adapting the SRL theory in the…

Gwo-Jen Hwang; An-Chi Lin; Shao-Chen Chang – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Digital games have been used in various disciplines to enhance students' learning interest and effectiveness through the gaming contexts. However, most of the digital educational games use multiple-choice questions to confirm students' learning status, implying the challenge of understanding the actual learning status of students. Also, the gaming…

Hou, Huei-Tse; Fang, Ying-Sang; Tang, Joni Tzuchen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Logical thinking and reasoning of geometric space are among the key abilities of science and technology education. This research developed a framework of an alternate reality-based board game incorporating augmented reality (AR) exploration with multi-dimensional scaffolding, including "cognitive scaffolding," "metacognitive…

Lu, Jijian; Tao, Yan; Xu, Jinghao; Stephens, Max – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study is the extension of our previous visualizing study on the commognition processes in computer-supported one-to-one tutoring. With the help of the scale of commognitive responsibility score, we found that the main triggers of the commognition process shift are the positive transfer of knowledge and cognitive conflict. On the basis of…

Chou, Yi-Shiuan; Hou, Huei-Tse; Chang, Kuo-En; Su, Chien-Lun – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study proposed a cognitive-based game mechanism based on the revised Bloom's taxonomy of cognitive processing dimensions. Moreover, a mobile Chinese history educational game, Void Broken: The Qing Dynasty, was developed based on the cognitive-based game mechanism to promote learners' cognitive thinking in history learning. This empirical…

Pellas, Nikolaos – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
The combination of Open Sim and Scratch4OS can be a worthwhile innovation for introductory programming courses, using a Community of Inquiry (CoI) model as a theoretical instructional design framework. This empirical study had a threefold purpose to present: (a) an instructional design framework for the beneficial formalization of a virtual…
