[publication] Determining the Causing Factors of Errors for Multiplication Problems

Our contribution about „Determining the Causing Factors of Errors for Multiplication Problems“ at this year European Immersive Education Summit is now online available.
Abstract:

Literature in the area of psychology and education provides domain knowledge to learning applications. This work detects the difficulty levels within a set of multiplication problems and analyses the dataset on different error types as described and determined in several pedagogical surveys and investigations. Our research sheds light to the impact of each error type in simple multiplication problems and the course of error types in problem-size.

[publication] A Contribution to Collaborative Learning Using iPads for School Children

Our contribution about „A Contribution to Collaborative Learning Using iPads for School Children“ at this year European Immersive Education Summit is now online available.
Abstract:

Collaboration has a very positive effect on students’ learning experiences as well as their social interactions. Our research study aims towards enhancing the learning experience, stimulating communication and cooperative behavior to improve learning. Making use of recent technological advancements (tablets) and gaming as a motivational factor, a prototype application in form of a multiplayer learning game for iPads was designed and developed. In a face-to-face setting, connecting up to four devices, the players (learners) have to solve word puzzles in a collaborative way. Furthermore, a web-interface for teachers provides the possibility to create custom content as well as to receive feedback of the children’s performance. A first field study at two primary schools in Graz showed promising results for the learning behavior of school children.
