Cognitive Analysis of Educational Games: The Number Game
Topics in Cognitive Science 9 (2):395-412 (2017)
Abstract
The subtitle of this paper could have been, “Big Data meets Education to advance Cognitive Science.” In it, the authors analyze 20 million answers to 1700 simple arithmetic problems in an educational number game to determine “what makes some problems harder than others.” The results contribute to the cognitive science of arithmetic skill acquisition and have the potential to change how math is taught.My notes
