2. How Does a Motivational Gamification Typology Describe Learner Participation in Gamified Activities?

Author

Annetta R. Dolowitz

Abstract

Since 2010, gamification, a concept and practice, gained attention in academic research. Results of its effectiveness were mixed and often lacked the use of grounded models or frameworks. Dichev et al. (2019b) proposed the existence of demotivational factors and highlighted two distinct sets of motivational drivers--one linked to game elements and another tied to the learning activities. Fifty two out of 93 online accounting students participated in the study, employing a convergent mixed methods design. They engaged by completing a measurement tool designed to differentiate Dichev et al.'s (2020) five proposed gamification learner types and assess if these types influenced learner participation in gamified activities. The gamified activities were voluntary, and points accumulated could be used in a class store where items could be purchased that helped individuals and the class. The measurement tool that was used failed to differentiate any of the learner types. This may be in part due to the low participation as well as the proposed typology. The study examined whether expectancy-value theory, specifically the cost construct, predicted student engagement in gamification. There were statistically significant results indicating that cost was negatively correlated with expectancy (ability) and value. While there was a statistically significant relationship between performance and task orientation, the Capable Explorer learner type was associated with a stronger task orientation (intrinsic motivation). None of the gamified activities were significant when compared to Self-Identified Gamification Learner Type (SILT) or the orientation scales. However, the Expectancy-Value Cost (EVC) subscales were compared to the orientation scales resulting in significant correlations. The statistically significant relationships occurred between Post Task Orientation and Post Value and Post Expectancy. The Cost correlation was negative with Post Task Orientation and was not significant. The qualitative analysis provided a broader understanding of what the participants experienced as they participated in the gamified activities. Help, one of the main codes, was determined to show both value and expectancy (ability). This code was divided into self and other. Those helping others displayed expectancy, whereas those who received help were identified as utility value. Cost was seen when the participants stated what demotivated their learning as well as when they described their participation in the gamified activities. One pattern that emerged during the analysis was that Capable Explorers tended to mark that the gamified activities were motivating more on the post-survey. The reasons were often labeled as utility value. Regardless, due to the low participation rate and consequently low power, any statistically significant or nonsignificant findings needed to be viewed skeptically.

3. Using Extended Reality Technology in Traditional and Place-Based Environments to Study Climate Change

Author

Mark H. Newton, Len A. Annetta, and Denise M. Bressler

Abstract

This exploratory study uses epistemic network analysis (ENA) to examine the use of extended reality (XR) technologies embedded in post-secondary classes, one in a traditional setting and the other a place-based setting, to examine climate change while utilizing a socioscientific issues (SSI) approach. One group used a virtual reality (VR) application on their smartphones in a traditional class setting to explore four different locations on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, USA (OBX). A second group used an augmented reality (AR) application on their smartphones while visiting the same four locations. Qualitative data was collected after each experience. Analysis of each group's networks indicated that both forms of technology engaged students in the SSI and were beneficial to their learning. However, differences in the networks revealed that virtual reality students made stronger connections between the technology, the physical impacts of climate change, and the political/socioeconomic aspects of climate change. In contrast, the augmented reality students made stronger connections between the technology and learning in general. Implications for practice and future research will be discussed.

Abstract

Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized space telescope with an aperture of at least $4m$. With the support of their governments in the US, Europe, and Canada, 20,000 people realized that vision as the $6.5m$ James Webb Space Telescope. A generation of astronomers will celebrate their accomplishments for the life of the mission, potentially as long as 20 years, and beyond. This report and the scientific discoveries that follow are extended thank-you notes to the 20,000 team members. The telescope is working perfectly, with much better image quality than expected. In this and accompanying papers, we give a brief history, describe the observatory, outline its objectives and current observing program, and discuss the inventions and people who made it possible. We cite detailed reports on the design and the measured performance on orbit., Comment: Accepted by PASP for the special issue on The James Webb Space Telescope Overview, 29 pages, 4 figures

Abstract

IntroductionInter- and transdisciplinary research (ITDR) is increasingly promoted to address “wicked problems”, particularly in health sectors adopting approaches like Ecohealth. Our Ecohealth-inspired project on rodent-borne diseases, initiated just before the COVID-19 pandemic, provided an opportunity to evaluate ITDR implementation.MethodsWe employed a recently developed semi-quantitative evaluation method to measure our project’s success in achieving ITDR and analyzed factors influencing this achievement.ResultsThe project showed strengths in system description, team task allocation, and data sharing, but had lower scores in engaging societal actors throughout the project cycle.DiscussionWe identified the underexplored influence of problem wickedness as a critical determinant of ITDR success. Addressing rodent-borne diseases, a less wicked problem, limited engagement potential but enabled constructive dialog with local actors. These insights are vital for addressing variably wicked problems in a polycrisis era. We propose recommendations to strengthen researchers’ capacities, particularly in Ecohealth.

Abstract

Scientific literacy is foundational for many young learners in primary school grades when they have mastered the ability to comprehend vocabulary terms and the science concepts behind them. Text with engaging visual imagery can improve students' comprehension, enhance retrieval, and increase retention when it is integrated into either or both reading and science instruction. Integrating multimedia experiences into science content reading to enhance text through mixed reality (MR) has the potential to supplement both understanding of science concepts and reading ability. This study examined whether reading elementary science text, heavy in science vocabulary, through MR enhanced students’ reading fluency and/or science content learning. A quasi-experimental convergent mixed methods one group pretest-posttest design was employed with 24 grade 5 students in a rural area of the United States Mid-Atlantic region. Data sources included a reading fluency and retelling test, physical and chemical changes end of unit test, and post-interviews. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Tests suggested reading fluency and comprehension gains were statistically significant (p

Abstract

Ixodes ricinus is the most important tick vector in central and western Europe and one of the most researched parasites. However, in the published literature on the tick and the pathogens it transmits, conjecture about specific transmission cycles and the clinical significance of certain microbes is not always clearly separated from confirmed facts. This article aims to present up-to-date, evidence-based information about the well-researched human pathogens tick-borne encephalitis virus, louping-ill virus, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and several Babesia species, with a focus on their development in the tick, transmission dynamics and the reservoir hosts that support their circulation in the environment. Borrelia miyamotoi, Neoehrlichia mikurensis, Rickettsia helvetica and Rickettsia monacensis, which are much less common causes of disease but may affect immunocompromised patients, are also briefly discussed. Finally, the possible role of I. ricinus in the transmission of Coxiella burnetii, Francisella tularensis, Bartonella spp. and Spiroplasma ixodetis is reviewed.

Abstract

Stranded seals are often infected with a broad range of parasites, although whether they are the cause of significant morbidity or an incidental finding is usually unclear. In this study we used stable isotope ratio analysis, a method frequently used to investigate food webs, to explore the extent to which common seal parasites feed directly on host tissue and fluids or absorb host-derived metabolites, which in turn may give an indication of their potential impact on the host's health. The trophic discrimination factor Δ15N for the nasal mite, Halarachne halichoeri, was mostly positive, ranging between −0.015 and 3.2‰ (n = 6), while for the Acanthocephalan worm, Corynosoma strumosum and the anisakid nematode, Pseudoterranova decipiens, Δ15N ranged between −4.2 and −2.0‰ (n = 7), and between −6.7 and −0.8‰ (n = 5) respectively. In the case of the lungworm, Otostrongylus circumlitus, Δ15N measured between −5.6 and 0‰ for worms collected in the stomach (n = 5), between −1.1 and 0.2‰ for worms collected from the heart (n = 3), between −0.7 and 1.9‰ for worms situated in the lungs (n = 4). Based on Δ15N, parasites could be clearly divided into those that were on a higher trophic level than their host suggesting a predator–prey-like relationship, and those that were not. It is hypothesized that Δ15N may be indicative of the clinical significance of parasite–host associations.

Abstract

Clinical observations of three patients aged 26, 43 and 37 years with severe psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are presented. Clinical examples show the experience of effective treatment of patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis using anti-cytokine therapy with an interleukin-17 inhibitor, initiated when the disease progresses. The clinical picture of the presented observations was characterized by an aggressive course of the skin and articular process, torpidity to basic therapy, despite the young age of the patients. It has been shown that the early termination of the progression of the inflammatory process in psoriasis with the use of genetically engineered biological therapy with secukinumab leads to a decrease in symptoms, both on the part of the skin and manifestations of the disease on the part of the musculoskeletal system. The high efficacy and safety of the drug allow complete control of the disease and improve the quality of life in patients suffering from severe forms of dermatosis.

Abstract

Elementary school curricular standards in the United States emphasize mathematics and literacy, while social studies and science are often left behind. Integrating science instruction with either mathematics or literacy is a strategy some teachers use to teach skills and concepts in both disciplines. Understanding science at a young age is reliant on grasping vocabulary that is new to the learner. Integrating visual imagery into reading instruction improves students’ comprehension, enhances retrieval, and increases retention. The media-based reading enhancement of text through spatial computing has begun to show promise for the integration of science vocabulary and reading comprehension, especially for low-proficiency readers. This paper provides a literary rationale for technology-enhanced intervention, provides examples of a study conducted to test the efficacy of such an intervention, presents the implications of the study’s findings, and discusses future avenues for how spatial computing might be used in science and literacy instruction in the future.

Abstract

Background: Older age is associated with increased prevalence of sensory impairment and use of medicines. Objectives: To explore the daily “medicine journey” of older people with sensory impairment. Methods: The study used ethnographic-informed methods (using audio-, photo- and video-recordings, diary notes and semi-structured interviews with researchers) and involved community-dwelling adults (aged > 65) in Scotland, with visual and/or hearing impairment and using >4 medicines. Data analysis used the constant comparative method. Results: Fourteen older people with sensory impairment participated and used a mean of 11.0 (SD 5.0) medicines (range 5–22). Participants reported difficulties with medicine ordering, obtaining, storage, administration and disposal. They used elaborate strategies to manage their medicines including bespoke storage systems, fixed routines, simple aids, communication, and assistive technologies. Conclusion: Older people with sensory impairment experience substantial burden, challenges and risk with medicines management. Tailored medicine regimens and assistive technologies could provide greater support to older people with sensory impairment.

Author

Dolowitz, Annetta, Collier, Jessica, Hayes, Aleshia, and Kumsal, Cem

Abstract

This case study details microlearning content development, testing, and implementation of the NATO Headquarters Supreme Allied Command Transformation (HQ SACT) e-Learning Networking App (NeNA) conducted by an AECT microlearning consulting team. NeNA was designed to provide microlearning "just-in-time" content, to create socialization (affinity spaces), channel organizational content, and increase employee motivation. The purpose of the AECT and HQ SACT partnership was to test the NeNA app as a viable way to develop and deliver microlearning content that personalizes self-directed learning, reduces cognitive load, meets the changing needs of the younger workforce, and captures implicit knowledge of employees prior to the end of their military duties. Primary lessons learned surrounded the importance of practitioner awareness of organizational and contextual challenges, including usability of solutions and essential steps to onboarding (training and integration), when adopting mobile learning solutions to provide performance support and improvement to employees.

22. Increasing Interest with Mixed Reality Science Reading: A Mixed Methods Case Study of Low Fluency Readers

Author

Bressler, Denise, Annetta, Leonard, Johnson, Ashley, Dunekack, Alexis, and Tutwiler, M. Shane

Abstract

This purpose of this study was to explore changes in science and reading interest among a diverse group of 5th grade science students who used a mixed reality reading experience, with a specific focus on the experience of low-fluency readers. This study involved pre-post measures and post-interviews with 15 fifth grade students. The intervention was a short solo experience in which each student read a page of scientific text while wearing a Microsoft HoloLens. Inside the headset, science content came alive with 3D images, animations, and sound. Following the collection of repeated survey measures and post-interviews, a mixed methods case study indicated that students with lower reading fluency scores reported higher gains in reading and science interest. Additionally, students had a positive experience with the mixed reality and found it better than reading with a textbook or a computer screen. Low fluency readers seemed particularly impacted by the visual aspects of the technology. This study provides support for further examination of using mixed reality technology--such as Microsoft HoloLens--to increase low-fluency readers interest in science and reading.

Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) as a tool to build wellbeing for students with latent trauma is being examined in multiple contexts. The purpose of this study was to compare modalities of treatment, namely, VR-enhanced therapy, face-to-face therapy without VR and wait-list time-delayed control. Participants were 69 students selected from a high-needs urban school. Observations, researcher assessments and paper instrument scores, were analysed using a mixed model measure ANOVA. Results for each of the measures comparing standardised scores across the main effect of modality illustrates a statistically significant difference between virtual reality enhanced Dialectical Behaviour skills training and each of the other modalities. We suggest approaches using VR-enhanced DBT promote greater DBT skill acquisition.

32. Using Game Design to Increase Teachers' Familiarity with Design Thinking

Author

Bressler, Denise M. and Annetta, Leonard A.

Abstract

Society needs creative problem solvers to work towards solutions of complex global issues such as climate change. Design thinking is a way to solve problems creatively. Unfortunately, in-service teachers are largely unfamiliar with design thinking and their students rarely engage in design thinking during class. To familiarize teachers with design thinking, this study provided three teacher cohorts with a game design experience. Utilizing a predefined game design document, participants designed an educational game. To experience a thorough design cycle, teachers worked through two iterations of their design. Using a pre- and post-survey, this exploratory study empirically examined whether teachers gained an understanding of design thinking. Results indicated that the game design experience worked well to improve overall design perceptions; the results showed a consistent, positive trend. Specifically, two of the three cohorts had statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) while the third cohort had a marginally significant difference (p < 0.10) from pre- to post-survey. More importantly, after the intervention, teachers from all three cohorts reported an increase in their familiarity with design thinking. Implications for the findings are discussed.

33. Investigating Preservice Science Teacher Ethical Sensitivity through Computer Game and Video

Author

Holmes, Shawn Y., Annetta, Leonard, and Crumb, Loni

Abstract

A computer-based simulation, Hazelton High at REST (HHR), with embedded performance-based assessments and Likert-type survey questions was created to assess preservice teacher recognition of racial and gender intolerant behaviors. The simulation was modeled after the Racial Ethical Sensitivity Test (REST), a reliable video-based assessment, measuring professionals' ethical sensitivity for cultural competence and recognition of intolerant behaviors in school settings. Ethical sensitivity skills, based on education professional ethics, are used to determine knowledge of ethical responsibility and professional attitudes and behaviors. A mixed-methods comparison study was conducted between HHR and the REST-video with 31 preservice science education students to investigate the effect of each on their ethical sensitivity. A post-simulation assessment was also conducted to determine and the usability and perception of HHR. It was hypothesized; HHR, an immersive simulation, would affect perspective taking of preservice science teachers and indirectly influence their ethical sensitivity. Data analysis determined ethical sensitivity score (EES) for HHR and REST-video using a survey and performance-based assessments. Post-simulation interview helped inform how a participant perceived the HHR. Results indicate the RESTvideo group had a significantly higher EES than the HHR group. Performance-based assessments within HHR showed a more comprehensive and complex picture of participant EES. The implication of this work for science education programs to use professional codes as a guide for evaluation and development of candidate disposition concerning cultural competency and the use of Serious Educational Games (SEGs) as ethical sensitivity assessments.

Abstract

The retail industry in Indonesia is still in the transition phase from multichannel to omnichannel. Hence, the behavior of shoppers is divided into two broad categories, namely multichannel and omnichannel shoppers. The research aimed to know the socio-demographic characteristics of multichannel and omnichannel shoppers in Indonesia. It also tested the difference between both in showing cross-channel behavior and loyalty to the retailers. The data were obtained by questionnaires from 341 respondents with purposive sampling. The descriptive method with cross-tabulation analysis was applied to capture the socio-demographic characteristics of multichannel and omnichannel shoppers. Meanwhile, the comparative method with an independent sample t-test tested the difference between both types of shoppers in showing cross-channel behavior and loyalty to the retailers. The results show that millennial and female shoppers are the most potential segment at this time to be targeted in the context of omnichannel retailing. Both multichannel and omnichannel shoppers are dominated by those whose income is less than Rp4,5 million to Rp10 million with 3 to 5 persons in their household. Moreover, there are significant differences between multichannel and omnichannel shoppers in the context of cross-channel behavior and loyalty. Omnichannel shoppers show cross-channel behavior and loyalty more than multichannel shoppers.

Abstract

This review article summarizes the findings from the first virtual International End-of-Life Doula Symposium, held over 3 days on 25–27 April 2022. More than 40 people attended from seven countries, predominantly from Australia, Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom, and they were primarily experienced practitioners. In this article, we focus on participants’ topics of conversations and experiences that were relevant across international boundaries, organized through the symposium themes of developments, disruptions, dilemmas and directions. All authors took de-identified handwritten notes across the 3 days of discussion, as well as reflexive notes about our own thoughts and perspectives on the topics discussed. We then collated our notes and abductively focussed our analysis on topics that generated significant conversation and/or came up repeatedly within the overall symposium themes, as well as trying to capture any unexpected issues and perspectives. We identify and summarize a wide range of interests and concerns within the development of the end-of-life doula (EOLD) role. We provide a model for integration pathways within existing health care systems, as well as an innovative conceptual framework synthesizing key intersecting developmental issues that are relevant across regional and national boundaries. The symposium was the first opportunity for EOLDs to collectively discuss their work and interests within an international context. Our findings indicate that there are fundamentally similar developmental issues across countries, along with some variations. As the first international event of its kind, our ‘state of the field’ summary review of the symposium holds significant insights relevant to both national and international contexts, and to a diversity of stakeholders interested in the development of this new care role and emerging transnational movement.
