Direct linkWang, Cixiao; Dong, Qian; Ma, Yuying – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
With the advancement of informational and portable technologies, virtual manipulatives based on tablets are applied to support students' learning in science education. However, research on the impact of tablet-student ratios on individual knowledge acquisition and cognitive load in collaborative inquiry learning has not been addressed in detail…

Wang, Cixiao; Xu, Lingling; Liu, Hui – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Virtual manipulatives (VMs) are increasingly adopted in inquiry activities. However, the effects of the ratio of mobile device-based VMs to students and external scripts (a guiding structure for prompting group process) provision on group interaction has not been detailed. Objectives: This study proposed four different technology…

Tablet-to-Student Ratio Matters: Learning Performance and Mental Experience of Collaborative Inquiry
Wang, Cixiao; Yu, Shufan – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2023
The use of virtual manipulatives (VMs) in tablets has become increasingly popular in science courses, and previous studies have indicated its educational benefits. However, the tablet-to-student ratio (TSR), which may affect students' learning, has rarely been examined. This study compares how learning in groups with different TSRs influences the…

Liu, Wenhui; Wang, Cixiao – Educational Technology & Society, 2022
In science classrooms, technology affordance varies depending on device-student ratios (DSR) and the ways virtual manipulatives on mobile devices are used. Additionally, external scripts (ES) are widely used to promote effective group interaction in collaborative learning. Therefore, this research explored the influence of DSR and ES on…

Wang, Cixiao; Li, Shuling – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2021
Virtual manipulatives running on tablets have been demonstrated to improve students' conceptual understanding in previous studies. However, the differential effects on group interaction during face-to-face collaborative inquiry learning from the support of alternative technology affordances has received little attention. Technology affordances in…

Wang, Cixiao; Le, Huixiao – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
In collaborative learning, the intuition "the more device, the merrier" is somehow widely acknowledged, but little research has investigated the relationship between device-student ratio and the learning outcome. This study aims to investigate not only the main effect of different device-student ratio, also to identify the moderators in…

Wang, Cixiao; OuYang, Jiayu; Wu, Feng – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Recent research in collaborative learning has indicated that peer assessment has a positive influence on students' learning performance and learning process. This study investigates how the different subgroups of two roles (assessors and assessees) in peer assessment contribute to students' perceptions of science learning in mobile…
