More Challenging or More Achievable? The Impacts of Difficulty and Dominant Goal Orientation in Leaderboards within Educational Gamification
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cao, Yang; Gong, Shao-Ying; Wang, Zhen; Cheng, Yang; Wang, Yan-Qing – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: As one of the gamification elements, leaderboard, especially absolute leaderboard, is widely used in educational gamification systems. However, empirical studies on the optimal use condition of the leaderboard and underlying influence mechanisms are deficient. Objectives: This study explored which difficulty was more conducive to…

Carolien A. N. Knoop-van Campen; Joep van der Graaf; Anne Horvers; Rianne Kooi; Rick Dijkstra; Inge Molenaar – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Even though monitoring and control enactment are key aspects of self-regulated learning (SRL), Adaptive learning technologies (ALTs) may reduce the need for learners to monitor and control their learning. Personalized dashboards are effective in supporting learners' monitoring and can potentially support control behaviour. Allowing…

Explaining Trace-Based Learner Profiles with Self-Reports: The Added Value of Psychological Networks
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Jelena Jovanovic; Dragan Gaševic; Lixiang Yan; Graham Baker; Andrew Murray; Danijela Gasevic – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Learner profiles detected from digital trace data are typically triangulated with survey data to explain those profiles based on learners' internal conditions (e.g., motivation). However, survey data are often analysed with limited consideration of the interconnected nature of learners' internal conditions. Objectives: Aiming to enable…

Fatimah H. Aldeeb; Omar M. Sallabi; Monther M. Elaish; Gwo-Jen Hwang – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: This paper examines the use of augmented reality (AR) as a concept-association tool in schools, with the aim of enhancing primary school students' learning outcomes and engagement. Conflicting findings exist in previous studies regarding the cognitive load of AR-enriched learning, with some reporting reduced load and others indicating…

Factors Influencing Chinese Undergraduate Students' Emotions in an Online EFL Learning Context during the COVID Pandemic
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Shao, Kaiqi; Kutuk, Gulsah; Fryer, Luke K.; Nicholson, Laura J.; Guo, Jidong – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Considerable evidence suggests that students' achievement emotions are important contributors to their learning and success online. It is, therefore, essential to understand and support students' emotional experiences to enhance online education, especially under the COVID-19 context. However, to date, very few studies have…

Self-Concept but Not Prior Knowledge Moderates Effects of Different Implementations of Computer-Assisted Inquiry Learning Activities on Students' Learning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Richter, Juliane; Lachner, Andreas; Jacob, Leonie; Bilgenroth, Friederike; Scheiter, Katharina – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Engaging students in computer-assisted guided inquiry learning has great potential to scaffold their scientific understanding: Students are expected to improve their scientific problem-solving skills, and at the same time gain a deep conceptual understanding of the subject-matter. Additional generative activities such as creating video…
