Chun-Hsin Kuo; Meng-Jun Chen; Robasa Nababan; Hsiao-Ching She – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Game-based learning (GBL) has long been recognized as an effective way to engage students in learning through games, but little emphasis has been placed on scaffolding support for students, which hinders their learning. Therefore, our design of Space Adventure GBL ties games closely to scaffolds at every stage and investigates what role games and…

Minjoon Kouh – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
An introductory physics course may be run like a video game, where students have an almost unlimited number of attempts to demonstrate their competencies through a sequence of zero-penalty assessments until the end of a semester. Each checkpoint is conducted as a 10-minute, one-on-one oral interview with the instructor, and students are not…

Radulovic, Branka – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2021
Modern approaches in Physics classes which involve the game-based student response system (GSRS) have been in use for a while, but their educational efficiency and students' involvement have not been examined. Therefore, this research's main aim was to determine the educational efficiency and students' involvement of GSRS and to assess their…

Farooq Chaudhry; M. Inam ul Haq Choudhry; Afnan Bashir; Kamran ul Haq; Humza Riaz – European Journal of Physics Education, 2021
In this research article we explore the efficacy of a game-based learning approach to improve students understanding of the fundamental concepts of physics such as, heat and temperature. Heat and temperature are complex to learn by traditional learning methods. Students face complexities in learning such concepts of Physics. These complexities…

Kuba, Renata; Rahimi, Seyedahmad; Smith, Ginny; Shute, Valerie; Dai, Chih-Pu – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Over three years, our research team has designed various learning supports for promoting content knowledge and solving game levels. In this case study, we examined the optimal design and the evaluation of learning support videos for a physics educational game. Often studies focus on investigating the effects of research-based principles without a…

Shute, Valerie; Rahimi, Seyedahmad; Lu, Xi – Grantee Submission, 2019
Digital, educational games have many promises (e.g., increasing students' content knowledge as well as competencies like problem-solving, spatial skills, and persistence). However, there are challenges to overcome before using these games more broadly in educational settings. One challenge involves identifying effective, theoretically based…

White, Aien Charity Grace; Chaudhari, Apoorv; White, Jonathon David – Physics Education, 2021
Engaging Electrical Engineering (EE) students in a freshman general physics service course is challenging as they see little relationship between the topics and their major. Non-native speakers enrolled in a course taught in English face an additional challenge beyond understanding the basic physics, that is, understanding specialized English.…
