Children s Acceptance of a Collaborative Problem Solving Game Based on Physical Versus Digital Learning Spaces

[EN] Collaborative problem solving (CPS) is an essential soft skill that should be fostered from a young age. Research shows that a good way of teaching such skills is through video games; however, the success and viability of this method may be affected by the technological platform used. In this work we propose a gameful approach to train CPS skills in the form of the CPSbot framework and describe a study involving 80 primary school children on user experience and acceptance of a game, Quizbot, using three different technological platforms: two purely digital (tabletop and handheld tablets) and another based on tangible interfaces and physical spaces. The results show that physical spaces proved to be more effective than the screen-based platforms in several ways, as well as being considered more fun and easier to use by the children. Finally, we propose a set of design considerations for future gameful CPS systems based on the observations made during this study.Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness and the European Regional Development Fund (project TIN2014-60077-R); Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport (with fellowship FPU14/00136) and Conselleria d'Educacio, Cultura i Esport (Generalitat Valenciana, Spain) (grant ACIF/2014/214).Jurdi, S.; García Sanjuan, F.; Nácher-Soler, VE.; Jaén Martínez, FJ.

Relación entre las actitudes y la motivación hacia el Kahoot y el rendimiento académico de estudiantes de pregrado de una universidad privada de Lima

Una de las nuevas estrategias de aprendizaje que involucran el uso de las tecnologías, es la gamificación, comprendida como el uso de elementos de los juegos en contextos no lúdicos. En la educación superior, la gamificación es considerada como una estrategia metodológica para promover la motivación y participación de los estudiantes. Dicha estrategia es aplicada por medio de herramientas, una de las más conocidas es Kahoot. En este contexto, la presente investigación se propone responder a la pregunta ¿Qué relación existe entre las actitudes y la motivación hacia el Kahoot y el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes de pregrado de una universidad privada de Lima? El enfoque metodológico es cuantitativo y el diseño es correlacional. Se utilizaron dos cuestionarios: Actitudes hacia el uso de Kahoot y Motivación percibida, y las notas de la evaluación parcial. Ambos instrumentos se aplicaron a 138 estudiantes y los resultados se analizaron en el programa SPSS24. Los resultados obtenidos evidencian una relación positiva significativa entre las variables actitudes hacia el uso de Kahoot y motivación. A diferencia de las variables actitudes hacia el uso de Kahoot y rendimiento académico donde no se encontró relación entre ambasOne of the new learning strategies that involve the use of technologies is gamification, understood as the use of elements of games in non-ludic contexts. In higher education, gamification is considered as a methodological strategy to promote the motivation and participation of students. This strategy is applied by means of tools, one of the most known is Kahoot. In this context, this research aims to answer the question: What is the relationship between attitudes and motivation towards Kahoot, in improving the academic performance of Undergraduate students at private university in Lima? The methodological approach is quantitative, and the design is correlational. Two questionnaires were used: Attitudes towards the use of Kahoot and Perceived Motivation, and the score of the middle exam. Both instruments were applied to 138 students and the results were analyzed in the SPSS24 software. The results obtained show a significant positive relationship between the variables attitudes towards the use of Kahoot and motivation A difference between the variables attitudes toward the use of Kahoot and academic performance where no relationship was found between both.Tesi

Vocational Education and Training in the Age of Digitization

The increasing digitization of the world of work is associated with accelerated structural changes. These are connected with changed qualification profiles and thus new challenges for vocational education and training (VET). Companies, vocational schools and other educational institutions must respond appropriately. The volume focuses on the diverse demands placed on teachers, learners and educational institutions in vocational education and training and aims to provide up-to-date results on learning in the digital age
