ReviewPublication Metadata only Assessment of learning in child–computer interaction research: A semi-systematic literature review(Elsevier, 2023-06) Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Eriksson, E.; Torgersson, O.; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifIn this paper, we investigate and map out how learning is assessed in Child–computer interaction (CCI) research. We have conducted a semi-systematic literature review in the CCI community's leading venues: the Interaction Design and Children (IDC) conference and the International Journal of Child–Computer Interaction (IJCCI). This eventually led to 30 publications that use the word stem ‘learn*’ in title, abstract and keywords being included in the corpus. Based on our analysis of these publications, the results demonstrate that there are three main strands of research approaches, namely quantitative, qualitative and mixed-methods, some of which are design-based. The case studies taking a qualitative approach dominate the field whereas the mixed-methods approach remains low in number. Furthermore, the findings showed that basic characteristics of research design and approaches to the assessment of learning are rarely defined, and that assessment of learning is scarcely operationalized. This affects the methodological rigor and possibility of understanding causality of technology interaction in children's learning. It was also found that only a limited number of works include assessment of learning regarding transfer of learning and controlled groups. The main findings from this review describe the current state-of-the art and address the gaps in CCI research in presenting evidence for learning in children as a desired impact. We conclude with suggestions for future avenues for the assessment of learning in CCI.Conference paperPublication Metadata only The CoCe design space: Exploring the design space for co-located collaborative games that use multi-display composition(ACM, 2021) Eriksson, E.; Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Torgersson, O.; Bjork, S.; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifIn this paper, we map out the CoCe design space - a design space for co-located collaborative games that use multi-display composition. The design space grew out of the analysis of game instances based on the 4in1 concept. First, we did a horizontal analysis of 16 game instances with 31 corresponding gameplay design patterns (GDP), followed by a vertical analysis of 89 GDPs occurring in the description of the GDP Cooperation. Through inductive analysis, we have identified four perspectives with corresponding dimensions that span the CoCe design space. By applying the CoCe design space with game instances, we illustrate how it can be used both as an analytic tool for analysis of games and also as a generative tool in the design or re-design of cooperative games that use multi-display composition.Conference paperPublication Metadata only Collaboration in co-located collaborative digital games - towards a quadripartite taxonomy(Association for Computing Machinery, 2023-04-19) Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Eriksson, E.; Torgersson, O.; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifIn this paper, we propose a taxonomy for the classification of collaborative interaction situations derived from studying a set of co-located collaborative gameplay sessions. The taxonomy builds on the MDA framework and Activity Theory (AT) as top-level attributes, and offers the analytical dimensions WHAT, WHO, WHEN and HOW, each containing a number of sub-categories, for evaluating different levels of collaborative interaction mediated by games. The work is based on a three stage process: design of game instances, data collection, and analysis of play sessions. This taxonomy is an initial step towards capturing the complexity of collaboration mediated by games, and helps in understanding and studying collaboration as a phenomena in game design. Our preliminary work provides a characterization of multiple dimensions of collaborative interaction, providing game designers a starting point for deeper understanding into collaborative interaction mediated by a collocated gameplay.ArticlePublication Open Access Designing for children’s reflections in collaborative interaction mediated by technology: A systematic literature review(Interaction Design and Architectures, 2021) Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Torgersson, O.; Eriksson, E.; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifReflection is an integral part of collaborative interaction. However, we know little about how to design for reflection in collaborative activities mediated by technologies. This systematic literature review focuses on children’s reflections within the collaborative practices in child-computer interaction research and investigates (1) the link between reflection and collaborative activities, (2) the types of collaborative technologies to scaffold reflection, and (3) the methodological approaches to analyze reflection. We searched the ACM Digital Library, Scopus and ProQuest which resulted in 141 papers that make the link between terms ‘reflection’ and ‘collaboration’ explicit, where only 13 of these involve children as the primary actors of reflection. The results show that this topic is increasingly gaining attention, however, the link between reflection and collaborative interaction remains underdeveloped. The contribution of this study is to provide a theoretical and methodological basis to understand, analyze and support children’s reflections within a collaborative activity through technology.Conference paperPublication Metadata only Quadropong - Conditions for mediating collaborative interaction in a co-located collaborative digital game using multi-display composition(ACM, 2022-10) Eriksson, E.; Pedersen, J. O.; Bagge, R.; Kristensen, J. B.; Lervig, M.; Torgersson, O.; Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifIn this demo, we present Quadropong, a co-located collaborative digital game using multi-display composition. It consists of conditions in the form of ten game instances designed to mediate various levels of collaborative interaction in players. The conditions were designed based on variations in interdependence and in symmetry and asymmetry in skills and resources. The preliminary results from playtests indicate that it is possible to design conditions to mediate various levels of collaborative interaction.Conference paperPublication Metadata only The role of learning theory in child-computer interaction - a semi-systematic literature review(ACM, 2022-06) Eriksson, E.; Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Torgersson, O.; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifIn this paper, we explore the role of learning theory in the Child-computer interaction (CCI) community's leading venues: the Interaction Design and Children (IDC) conference and the International Journal of Child-Computer Interaction (IJCCI). Searching all publications in the IDC conference proceedings and IJCCI, 63 papers that use the word stem ĝ€?FOR VERIFICATION>learn∗' in title, abstract and keywords were included in the corpus. Based on an analysis of these papers, our semi-systematic literature review demonstrates that assessment of learning regarding transfer of learning and controlled groups is rare, that the main role for learning theory is application, and that four main theoretical positions on learning can be recognized: constructivism, constructionism, cognitive theories, and socio-cognitive theory. The paper further presents an overview of how and which learning theories are used, and outlines paths for future CCI research based on the results.ArticlePublication Metadata only What FabLearn talks about when talking about reflection — A systematic literature review(Elsevier, 2021-06) Baykal, Gökçe Elif; Van Mechelen, M.; Wagner, M.-L.; Eriksson, E.; Communication Design; BAYKAL, Gökçe ElifFabLearn is a venue for researchers and practitioners within computing, design and making in education where reflective practices are an integral part. This paper presents a systematic literature review on the use of the term reflection in FabLearn research. With this review, we provide an answer to the questions (1) what reflection means in FabLearn research, (2) how these reflections are stimulated and scaffolded in practice (i.e., teachers/facilitators and students/participants), and (3) what types of concerns or subject matters take place in reflective practices. The review is conducted in FabLearn US and Europe proceedings between 2014–2019, and resulted in 68 papers included in the analysis. The findings show that FabLearn research need to develop solid theoretical groundings and frameworks as guidelines to scaffold students’ reflection, and more in-depth understanding of reflection to investigate and carry out a more comprehensive conceptualization of the term.
