Learning acquired from a computer game‐based early algebra intervention

Abstract: Algebra has long been a gatekeeper to more advanced mathematics and to tertiary education. International assessments, such as PISA, have also shown that this trend extends beyond borders, making the topic of when algebra should be learned quite political. Many reforms have been instituted since the early 1990s to infuse algebraic thinking into elementary grade levels-a domain of learning that has since been termed early algebra. In this study, we draw on Rasch Analysis results to report on the levels of sophis… Show more

“…(b) By the results of the pre-test and the post-test. The details of the levels, and the overall effectiveness of the intervention, are given in Engledowl et al, 2021. We take this data as supporting evidence that Agrinautica was successful. Very little time was spent by students entering meaningless expressions.…”

“…Across the larger project, for students, there were pre-and post-surveys designed to collect information about student demographic information, students' experiences with computer games and computer games for learning mathematics, their mathematics anxiety, mathematics self-concept, and more broadly their persistence in learning. Moreover, an early algebra assessment was constructed that has shown promising validity and reliability evidence (Engledowl, 2020); it was administered as a preand post-test. Finally, embedded telemetry data were collected on student game play for Agrinautica.…”
