Abstract

This study developed a technology-enhanced intervention named Knowledge Gap Tracker (KGT) that supports impasse-repair process during PS-I and investigated its effects on learning process and outcome. It consists of KG specifier in which students self-evaluate their knowledge gaps regarding the specified knowledge component and Navigator which visualizes the degree of perceived knowledge gaps on each knowledge component and help students track this during the instruction phase. To examine the effects of the KGT on learning process and outcome, a total of 88 learners participated in the experiment. The result showed that the KGT group reported higher awareness of knowledge gap and more selectively watched the video lecture than the control (fake KGT) group.
