Cai, Huiying; Gu, Xiaoqing – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
This study examined the effects of shared representational guidance (collaborative textural representative tool vs. collaborative graphical representative tool; TR vs. GR) and prior knowledge (low vs. high; LPK vs. HPK) on different levels of individuals' understanding of specific-domain knowledge after collaborative problem solving (CPS). A total…

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-Haur Hwang; Beyin Chen; Shih-Pei Chen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
This study proposed a game-based flipped teaching approach and applied it to a HTML (HyperText Markup Language) course. We developed two versions of the pre-class content testing, one of which was game-based, using a "looking-through" game, and the other which was traditional, using a multiple-choice test. We conducted a teaching…

Jung, Jaewon; Shin, Yoonhee; Zumbach, Joerg – Interactive Learning Environments, 2021
This study investigated the effects of pre-training types on the cognitive load, collaborative knowledge construction and level of learning in a computer-supported collaborative learning environment. Pre-training was provided to help learners optimise their cognitive load, build accurate shared-knowledge and achieve successful deep learning. The…

Hwang, Gwo-Haur; Chen, Beyin; Chen, Ru-Shan; Wu, Ting-Ting; Lai, Yu-Ling – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
Competitive game-based learning has been widely discussed in terms of its positive and negative impacts on learners' learning effectiveness and learning behavior. Although different types of games require different kinds of knowledge to accomplish the task via competition, few studies have considered that knowledge types, such as procedural…

Damnik, Gregor; Proske, Antje; Körndle, Hermann – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
When teachers or instructors create computer-based learning environments, they often solely consider technical aspects of interactivity. As a consequence, learners' main role is to respond to requests of the learning environment (e.g. by answering multiple-choice questions). This aspect of interactivity is, however, not sufficient to understand…

Cross, Simon; Whitelock, Denise – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
The new pedagogical opportunities that massive open online course (MOOC) learning environments offer for the teaching of fee-paying students on university-accredited courses are of growing interest to educators. This paper presents a case study from a postgraduate-taught course at the Open University, UK, where a MOOC performed the dual role of a…
