Learning with Concept Maps (Completed)

We are looking for participants for a study on learning with concept maps! In this experiment, we would like to investigate and understand how learners coordinate with each other in a technology-enhanced, face-to-face learning situation. We are collecting eye-tracking data and physiological data (skin resistance) in this study. Please note that we are using eye-tracking glasses in this experiment. Therefore, you should not wear framed glasses to participate. To participate in this experiment, please wear contact lenses instead if you are a spectacle wearer. You will first prepare individually and then perform a collaborative learning task with another person. The entire experiment will take approximately 100 minutes. You will receive a VP ticket for 2 VP hours after participating. You are interested? If you would like to participate, please send an email to the Learn-with-Concept-Map team (jointattention.edutech@gmail.com) with the subject “Interest in Concept-Map Study”.
