Paper presentation @ EuroPLoP 2017

Paul Inventado will present a paper at the 22nd European Conference on Pattern Languages of Programs (EuroPLoP) 2017 in Kloster Irsee, Bavaria, Germany.

EuroPLoP is the premier European conference on patterns and pattern languages. Design patterns are a unique and effective way to capture and share expertise, tacit knowledge and research findings.

Inventado, P.S., Scupelli, P., Heffernan, C. & Heffernan, N.: Feedback Design Patterns for Math Online Learning Systems

Abstract:

Increasingly, computer-based learning systems are used by educators to facilitate learning. Several learning systems have been developed for the Math domain, which have resulted in significant improvements in student learning. Feedback provision is one of the key features in Math learning systems that contribute to its success. We have recently been uncovering feedback design patterns as part of a larger pattern language for Math problems and learning support in online learning Systems. In this paper we present three feedback design patterns developed from the application of the data-driven design pattern (3D2P) methodology on a large educational data set collected from actual student data in a Math online learning system. These design patterns can help teachers, learning designers, and other stakeholders construct effective feedback for interactive learning activities that facilitate student learning.
