Designing Game-Based Assessment Around Learning Progressions

Sun, April 6, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Marriott, Floor: Fourth Level, Franklin 6

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Computer games have been used as learning tools. However, more research needs to be done exploring the use of these games as assessment tools. Some of the research questions that need to be addressed include: Do games capture evidence of underlying cognitive processes? Can we use games designed around particular learning progressions to gather valid evidence of students’ knowledge and abilities? This symposium explores issues related with games designed to assess particular learning progressions (e.g., Argumentation or Functions).
