Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume brings together research on how gameplay data in serious games may be turned into valuable analytics or actionable intelligence for performance measurement, assessment, and improvement. Chapter authors use empirical research methodologies, including existing, experimental, and emerging conceptual frameworks, from various fields, such as: computer science software engineering educational data mining statistics information visualization. Serious games is an emerging field where the games are created using sound learning theories and instructional design principles to maximize learning and training success. But how would stakeholders know what play-learners have done in the game environment, and if the actions performance brings about learning Could they be playing the game for fun, really learning with evidence of performance improvement, or simply gaming the system, i.e., finding loopholes to fake that they are making progress This volume endeavors to answer these questions.…

Dr. Yanyan Sheng’s research interests focus on modeling dichotomous responses in educational and psychological measurement using advanced modern statistics, and specifically on developing and applying complex yet efficient Bayesian hierarchical item response models. She developed complex Bayesian multidimensional models with various latent dimensional structures and has written and published MATLAB programs for these models. She is also interested in applying the biased coin up-and-down design to adaptive testing.
Dr. Ifenthaler’s research interests focus on learning analytics, cognitive structures, complex problem solving, learning analytics, game-based and mobile learning, as well as computer-based assessment. He developed computer-based methodologies for the assessment and analysis of graphical and natural language representations (SMD Technology, HIMATT, AKOVIA, TASA) as well as games for teacher education (DIVOSA, SeSIM). Dr. Ifenthaler’s research outcomes spans numerous co-authored books, book chapters, journal articles andinternational conference papers. He was a 2012 Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence at the Jeannine Rainbolt College of Education, the University of Oklahoma, USA and Interim Department Chair and Professor at the University of Mannheim, Germany.
