In-Class Simulation Games: Assessing Student Learning
An effective game will help students understand concepts more quickly and remember them better than from a lecture. The game used here is a simulation of an inventory system, where student teams place orders for an item on a monthly basis (based on limited knowledge of prior demand), and then the instructor informs them what the demand is for that month. There are holding costs for items not so...
متن کاملAssessing student learning.
Biology education research has now reached a level of maturity where the expectation is that researchers will assess the effectiveness of their innovation on student learning. This may include an examination of affective outcomes, such as student attitudes and beliefs, as well as student understanding of discipline-based content. A variety of tools are available to generate assessment data, eac...
متن کاملAssessing implicit science learning in digital games
Building on the promise shown in game-based learning research, this paper explores methods for Game-Based Learning Assessments (GBLA) using a variety of educational data mining techniques (EDM). GBLA research examines patterns of behaviors evident in game data logs for the measurement of implicit learning—the development of unarticulated knowledge that is not yet expressible on a test or formal...
متن کاملProblem-based learning in photonics technology education: Assessing student learning
Problem-based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach whereby students learn course content by collaboratively solving complex real-world problems and reflecting on their experience. Research shows that PBL improves student knowledge and retention, motivation, problem-solving skills, and the ability to skillfully apply knowledge in new situations. One of the challenges with PBL, however, is...
متن کاملAssessing Student Learning about Statistical Inference
Statistical significance and p-values can be a particularly challenging topic for introductory statistics students. In an effort to assess curricular changes aimed at deepening student understanding of significance, we have developed assessment strategies to diagnose students’ conceptualization of p-value and their ability to communicate their understanding. We will present our approaches and d...
