“…The majority of eye tracking studies in the literature use static metrics such as fixation count, fixation duration or saccade length (Ho et al 2014;Kardan & Conati, 2012). Yet, some researchers are concerned with the sequential properties of eye movements such as the visual scan path (Lee & Wu, 2017;Susac et al 2014).…”

This paper reports on the feasibility of using eye tracking as a tool for students' performance assessment in a medical serious game. We are particularly interested in analyzing the relationship between learners' visual behaviour and their performance while solving medical cases. The objective of this study is twofold. First, we analyze how the students visually explore the learning environment across different areas of interest. Second, we examine whether static and dynamic eye tracking metrics can have an impact on students' reasoning performance. Results revealed statistically significant associations between eye movement metrics and students' outcomes. Particularly dynamic metrics better reflected students' analytical reasoning abilities. Our findings have implications for the educational technology community seeking to gain a deeper understanding of the students' learning experience.

“…Firstly, the relationship between eye-tracking and online news is unique in its shapes and concepts. On the surface, there are many factors in online news including congruity [36], reading behavior [48,49], content selection [50,51], attention and learning content [52], public opinion [53], and media platforms [54]. Next, there are also previous studies on the relationship between eye-tracking and anxiety.…”

Development of the internet as a source of information has penetrated many aspects of human life, which is shown in the increasingly diverse substance of news in online news sources. Previous studies have stated that the presentation of the substance of online news information can have negative impacts, especially the emergence of anxiety in users; thus, managing the presentation of information becomes important. This study intends to explore factors that should be considered as possible anxiety-inducers for readers of news sites. Analyses of areas of interest (AOIs), fixation, and heat maps from respondents’ eye activity obtained from eye-tracker data have been compiled with Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) measurement results to analyze anxiety among newsreaders. The results show that text is the dominant center of attention in various types of news. The reason for the higher anxiety that arises from text on online news sites is twofold. First, there are the respondents’ experiences. Second, text usage allows for boundless possibilities in respondents’ imaginations as a response to the news that has occurred.

“…They aimed to investigate whether students' level of prior knowledge (high and low) has an impact on their reading process. Results showed that both types of students spent more time reading text than graphics with a higher fixation duration on the graphic for the high prior knowledge students, which implies that the other students were struggling when reading a report that integrates both text and graphic information [39]. In the same context, Lee and Wu (2016) explored students' scan paths when reading geometric descriptions.…”

Abstract-It has long been shown that there is a close relationship between eye movement, human cognition and brain activity. The present work seeks to explore this relationship by investigating the students' saccadic eye movement sequences in a problem solving task. We aim to assess students' reasoning process in a clinical problem solving task using students' visual trajectories. We use students' scan path, followed while resolving medical cases, and a local sequence alignment algorithm, to evaluate their analytical reasoning during medical case resolution. An experimental protocol was conducted with 15 participants. Eye movements were recorded while they were interacting with our learning environment. The proposed approach, based on gaze data, can be reliably applied to eye movement sequence comparison. Our findings have implications for improving novice clinicians' reasoning abilities in particular and ultimately enhancing learning outcomes.Index Terms-Cognitive tasks, eye movements, local sequence alignment, medical reasoning, scan path similarity.
