Description¶
A user-centered reading-based educational app developed by Kantorski et al. that combines branching narratives, embedded performance assessment, and interactive learning features for literacy and content learning.
Components¶
- Narrative-based educational app pattern combining branching story, embedded performance-task assessment, and supplementary interactive features: The BiblioTech platform is a user-centered, reading-based app in which users "craft their own story by choosing where characters go and what they learn" through a branching, build-your-own-adventure narrative. Features such as mini-games, infographics, interactive diagrams, video interviews, and a digital notebook supplement the story, while a built-in debate assessment functions as "a complex, authentic performance task that contextualizes learning by requiring users to make key decisions that affect the story's outcome." Mini-games act like quizzes that build vocabulary familiarity without affecting the story outcome. (Kantorski et al. (2019))
