This study attempted to model the stag and hare hunting behaviors of students using their interaction data in a mobile computer-supported collaborative learning application for Grade 5 mathematics. Twenty-five male and 12 female Grade 5 students with an average age of 10.5 years participated in this study. Stag hunters are more likely to display personality dimensions characterized by Openness while students belonging to hare hunters display personality dimensions characterized by Extraversion and Neuroticism. Students who display personality dimensions characterized by Agreeableness and Conscientiousness may tend to be either hare or stag hunters, depending on the difficulty, types of arithmetic problems solved, and the amount of time spent solving arithmetic problems. Students engaged in a stag hunting behavior performed poorly in mathematics. Decision tree modeling and lag sequential analysis revealed that stag and hare hunting behaviors could be identified based on personality dimensions, types of arithmetic problems solved, difficulty level of problems solved, time spent solving problems, and problem-solving patterns. Future research and practical implications were also discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
