This document summarizes research on using serious games to assess learning through analytics. It discusses how games can be validated using pre-post tests to ensure effectiveness and provide training data for machine learning models. Interaction data from validated games can then train models to predict learning from gameplay without exams. The researchers developed tools like a game analytics tracker, validation tool, and analysis tool to facilitate collecting interaction data, validating games, and analyzing results. Their authoring tool integrates these analytics capabilities. Future work will integrate machine learning models into the validation tool to directly provide assessment scores based on interaction data. The goal is to close the assessment loop for serious games.
