Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Interaction-style coding shows increasing focus on step-based systems, and collaborative-structure coding shows 2014 papers include many supported-collaboration examples compared with 1994 and 2004. → Ido Roll & Ruth Wylie 2016
q2 i? Despite shifts in education, the vast majority of analysed papers target domain-level learning as their measured goal; motivation was mostly measured by satisfaction surveys. → Ido Roll & Ruth Wylie 2016 (2)
Evidence¶
Ido Roll & Ruth Wylie 2016¶
Ido Roll & Ruth Wylie. (2016). Evolution and Revolution in Artificial Intelligence in Education. International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 26, 582-599. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40593-016-0110-3
q2 · i? · review · r2
Interaction-style and collaborative-structure coding of the 47 papers (Tables 5 and 6): 60% of 2014 empirical papers were step-based, and 2014 included 50% synchronous n-learners:n-computers empirical papers, which the authors call very welcomed.
"As can be seen, we have been moving towards increasing the focus on step-based systems. This is natural, given the success in this type of work."
Ido Roll & Ruth Wylie 2016 (2)¶
Ido Roll & Ruth Wylie. (2016). Evolution and Revolution in Artificial Intelligence in Education. International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 26, 582-599. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40593-016-0110-3
q2 · i? · review · r2
Learning-goal coding (Table 7) of the analysed papers: 90% of 2014 empirical papers targeted domain-level knowledge; the authors note supporting collaboration without measuring it did not qualify as a collaborative learning goal.
"As shown in Table 7, the vast majority of the papers focus on domain-level learning. Most empirical papers that measured motivation in 2014 (n = 3) did so using surveys to measure satisfaction."
