This study aimed to examine the impact of game and simulation-based learning environments on the success, concept knowledge, and attitude of prospective teachers regarding probability. The sample of the study consisted of 94 prospective mathematics teachers. The study was conducted in accordance with the quasi-experimental study design and the…

This article presents an experience in teaching mathematical thinking through games in a math course for non-science majors. The course described here has run twice on the campus of Sam Houston State University and is a combination of escape room pedagogy and game-based pedagogy. From these courses, I note an increased engagement of students with…

The purpose of this study was to design, develop, and test the effects of digital game-based learning on undergraduate students' learning motivation, mathematics achievement, and learning retention in a college algebra course. Digital games utilize interactive digital media that offer rules-based challenges and react to the individual's choices.…

This study evaluates the implementation of a collaborative/game-based learning strategy on final year B.Sc. students focused on reinforcing the Taylor theorem (a mathematical concept previously learned, usually forgotten over time and widely used in chemical engineering) and analyses its effect on their academic performance. To this end, the…

Game-based learning includes instruction and discipline that inculcates authentic game experiences (Cicchino, 2015). This research investigated the use of game-based learning on enhancing the critical thinking of college mathematics students enrolled in the subject Mathematics in the Modern World for the time span of 5 months. The Study Utilized…

This participatory action research (PAR) study describes the Flagway program at New England College (NEC). The purpose of the study is to share the historical origins of the Flagway program, discuss how Flagway is being implemented with college students at NEC, and describe initial effects of the program on middle school students who score in the…

The Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE) is an international, non-profit educational organization. The Association's purpose is to advance the knowledge, theory, and quality of teaching and learning at all levels with information technology. The "EdMedia + Innovate Learning" conference took place in New York,…

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…
