Paper on a related project co-authored by iTalk2Learn partners Katharina Loibl and Nikol Rummel (RUB) is accepted with revisions in a major international research journal. They showed that exploratory learning tasks before structured instruction promotes learning when student solutions are built upon. We take their results into account to design the invention model for the…
iTalk2Learn partners Katharina Loibl and Nikol Rummel (RUB) submitted a theoretical paper to a major international journal. The paper discusses learning mechanisms underlying beneficial effects of exploratory learning tasks prior to explicit instruction that will inform the intervention model of the iTalk2Learn project. The paper is co-authored by Ido Roll (CWSEI, University of British Columbia).
Analysis from experimental data with Fractions Tutor (one of the systems used in the iTalk2learn project) collected in the context of Martina Rau’s PhD work wins Best Paper award in the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM 2013). The paper entitled “Does Representational Understanding Enhance Fluency – Or Vice Versa? Searching for Mediation Models”…
