Rahimi, Seyedahmad; Shute, Valerie; Zhang, Qian – International Journal of Technology in Education and Science, 2021
Persistence is an important part of student success--both in and out of school. To enhance persistence, we first need to assess it accurately. Digital games can be used as vehicles for measuring and enhancing persistence. The purpose of this study is to test the effects of (a) game-level characteristics (i.e., game mechanics and conceptual…
