Unobtrusive Observations of Learning in Digital Environments
Introduction
This book seeks to integrate foundational ideas from psychology,
immersive digital learning environments and game-based learning
supported by theories and methods of the learning sciences,
particularly in pursuit of questions of cognition, behaviour and
emotion factors in digital learning experiences. New and emerging
foundations of theory and analysis based on observation of digital
traces are enhanced by data science, particularly machine
learning, with extensions to deep learning, natural language
processing and artificial intelligence brought into service to
better understand higher-order thinking capacities such as
self-regulation, collaborative problem-solving and social
construction of knowledge.
As a result, the edited volume will present a collection of
indicators or measurements focusing on learning processes and
related behaviour, (meta-)cognition, emotion and motivation, as
well as social processes. In addition, each section of the book
will include an invited commentary from a related field, such as
educational psychology, cognitive science, and learning science.
The following presents a tentative table of contents including
sections and possible key areas of the included contributions:
The section on indicators focusing on behaviour
- Modelling student behavioural engagement
- Measuring engagement with multimodal data
- Commentary from Learning Design or Learning Science
The section on indicators focusing on cognition and metacognition
- Measuring learning from text
- Learning strategies
- Metacognitive prompts and personalized scaffolding
- Commentary from Psychometrician or Cognitive Science
The section on indicators focusing on emotion and motivation
- Affect detection methods and techniques
- Emotions and ITS
- Emotion regulation in collaborative learning
- Measuring motivation from hypertext
- Commentary from Educational Psychology
The section on indicators focusing on social processes
- Modelling dynamics of social processes
- Linguistic analysis of student collaboration
- Group cohesion
- Commentary from Computational Social Science
This edited volume is part of the Advances in Analytics for
Learning and Teaching book series
(
https://www.springer.com/series/16338) and will focus on
indicators or measurements focusing on learning processes and
related behaviour, (meta-)cognition, emotion and motivation, as
well as social processes.
