Observational and Log Analysis Methods for Assessing Engagement and Affect in...Games for Learning Institute (G4LI)
This document discusses two methods for assessing student engagement and affect in educational games: quantitative field observations and automated detectors. Quantitative field observations involve experts observing students' engagement and affect during gameplay through periodic 20-second observations coding behaviors and affective states. Automated detectors use models to assess engagement and affect in real-time or retrospectively from student behavior data without sensors. The author's lab has used these methods to compare engagement and affect between games and intelligent tutoring systems, and to study the influence of social behavior on affective dynamics in games. Both methods provide ecologically valid assessments of student disengagement, affective experiences, and can be used in research and to improve learning outcomes through intervention.The learners voice series: device project

This presentation discusses a collaborative pen-based workspace used for teaching and learning mathematics at Seneca College. It utilizes DyKnow software and HP tablet PCs to allow for interactive lessons, collaborative practice between students, and asynchronous review of electronic notes. Evaluations found that the technology engaged visual learners and shy students, helped keep students organized, and improved focus and test performance compared to traditional lectures. However, consistent internet access and adjusting to digital notes instead of paper were challenges. The project was funded through various grants and aimed to enhance foundational math education through an innovative teaching methodology supported by technology.

Students "Speak Up" about Games 2009
- Speak Up is an annual national research project that collects data through online surveys from K-12 students, teachers, parents, and administrators to understand perspectives on 21st century learning and education technology.
- Over 1.3 million individuals from over 18,000 schools have participated in Speak Up since 2003, providing insights into technology access and use, digital skills, and preferences for teaching and learning tools.
- Key findings show a "digital disconnect" between how students live and learn, with students considering themselves more advanced technology users than teachers and desiring more technology access and skills development at school.
