项目摘要

Collaborative problem solving (CPS) is an essential skill in our increasingly connected and globalized world. Yet, there is a paucity of knowledge on how to define, measure, and develop this skill, especially in the context of STEM learning. A team of investigators from Notre Dame University, Florida State University, and Arizona State University will seek to discover how interpersonal interactions arise and influence CPS processes and outcomes in digital STEM learning environments. The research will focus on groups of high school and college students collaborating virtually within a STEM educational game called Physics Playground. The hypothesis is that CPS effectiveness can be improved by providing real-time automated feedback on the ongoing collaboration. The investigators will collect an array of data, ranging from individual physiological measures to learning outcome measures to group communication patterns. Their goal is to improve the design of future CPS learning environments, making them more enjoyable, engaging, and effective. The project is funded by the EHR Core Research (ECR) program, which supports work that advances the fundamental research literature on STEM learning.The research will involve dyads and triads collaborating virtually within a learning environment called Physics Playground, a STEM educational game. Data will be collected in both the lab and classroom, using a diverse sample of high school and college students from three sites across the U.S. The team will integrate data from a range of sources including modeling of small group problem solving and collaborative learning and from the modeling of low-level data from eye tracking, facial feature tracking, psychophysiology, and linguistic/paralinguistic speech analysis. Additionally, the team will study the moderating effects of task constraints and group composition on CPS processes and outcomes. A further goal is to model dynamic CPS processes using nonlinear time series analyses and multimodal deep recurrent neural networks. The computational models will be integrated into the learning environment to test the hypothesis that CPS outcomes can be improved by providing automated feedback on unfolding collaborative processes. Thus, by blending basic experimental research, multisensor-multimodal analysis, computational modeling, and dynamic computerized intervention, the researchers will attempt to make foundational theoretical, methodological, and technological advances.

在我们日益互联和全球化的世界中，协作解决问题 (CPS) 是一项基本技能。然而，关于如何定义、衡量和发展这项技能的知识却很少，特别是在 STEM 学习的背景下。来自圣母大学、佛罗里达州立大学和亚利桑那州立大学的研究小组将寻求发现人际互动如何在数字 STEM 学习环境中产生并影响 CPS 过程和结果。该研究将重点关注在名为“Physics Playground”的 STEM 教育游戏中进行虚拟协作的高中生和大学生群体。假设可以通过提供有关正在进行的协作的实时自动反馈来提高 CPS 的有效性。研究人员将收集一系列数据，从个人生理测量到学习成果测量再到群体沟通模式。他们的目标是改进未来 CPS 学习环境的设计，使它们更加有趣、有吸引力和有效。该项目由 EHR 核心研究 (ECR) 计划资助，该计划支持推进 STEM 学习基础研究文献的工作。该研究将涉及二人组和三人组在名为“Physics Playground”（一款 STEM 教育游戏）的学习环境中进行虚拟协作。数据将在实验室和课堂上收集，使用来自美国三个地点的高中生和大学生的不同样本。该团队将整合来自各种来源的数据，包括小组问题解决和协作学习的建模以及来自对来自眼动追踪、面部特征追踪、心理生理学和语言/副语言语音分析的低级数据进行建模。此外，该团队还将研究任务限制和小组组成对 CPS 流程和结果的调节作用。进一步的目标是使用非线性时间序列分析和多模态深度循环神经网络对动态 CPS 过程进行建模。计算模型将被集成到学习环境中，以测试以下假设：通过提供有关展开协作过程的自动反馈，可以改善 CPS 结果。因此，通过融合基础实验研究、多传感器多模态分析、计算建模和动态计算机干预，研究人员将尝试取得基础理论、方法和技术进步。
