项目摘要
This project will amplify the efforts of computer scientists who do outreach to middle school students by capturing mentor-mentee interactions and using this captured content to create a virtual mentoring system to support independent learners (children without access to computer science experts) within the Looking Glass programming environment. Looking Glass is a novice programming environment that presents programming as a means to the motivating end of creating 3D animated stories. In the system to be developed, mentors will do three things: First, a mentor watches the story-programs his or her mentee created and writes a code suggestion: new or revised functionality that will help to improve the mentees' programs. Next, the mentor edits a draft tutorial that Looking Glass has automatically generated from the mentor's code suggestion. Looking Glass then sends this edited tutorial to the mentee. Finally, the mentor writes rules that help Looking Glass identify contexts in which that code suggestion could be helpful. Looking Glass will use the mentor-contributed code suggestions, personalized tutorials, and rules to provide virtual mentoring for independent learners. Specifically, this project will explore three hypotheses: Hypothesis One: The approach of capturing and evaluating mentor-created learning materials will enable the creation of a virtual mentoring system to support independent learners. Hypothesis Two: Independent learners who are presented with in-context code suggestions that both further their stories and introduce new programming concepts will develop greater programming skills than those without access to these suggestions. Hypothesis Three: Independent learners who are presented with personalized tutorials based on their experience level with each topic presented will perform better than independent learners who are presented with a single level of scaffolding. The National Academy of Engineering lists personalized learning as one of the grand challenges for engineering in this century. This project will develop and evaluate the impact of two techniques for personalizing learning: program-specific code suggestions and personalized, multi-level tutorials. The majority of research into educational environments has focused on formal educational settings, but Looking Glass will advance research in how to effectively support independent learning in open-ended software environments. The enhancement to Looking Glass will provide an environment for exploring computer programming and learning support through virtual mentoring to middle school children without access to computer science learning opportunities. The project's educational plan uses biographies of computer scientists integrated into Looking Glass and a research blog to help middle school children develop an accurate image of computer science.
该项目将扩大计算机科学家的努力,他们通过捕捉导师与学员的互动,并使用这些捕捉到的内容来创建一个虚拟指导系统,以支持Looking Glass编程环境中的独立学习者(无法接触计算机科学专家的儿童)。Looking Glass是一个新手编程环境,它将编程作为创建3D动画故事的激励手段。在要开发的系统中,导师将做三件事:首先,导师观看他或她的学员创建的故事程序,并编写代码建议:新的或修订的功能,这将有助于改进学员的程序。接下来,指导者编辑Looking Glass根据指导者的代码建议自动生成的教程草稿。Looking Glass然后将此编辑的教程发送给学员。最后,导师编写规则,帮助Looking Glass识别代码建议可能有用的上下文。Looking Glass将使用导师提供的代码建议、个性化教程和规则为独立学习者提供虚拟指导。具体而言,本项目将探讨三个假设:假设一:捕获和评估导师创建的学习材料的方法将使创建一个虚拟的指导系统,以支持独立的学习者。假设二:独立的学习者,谁提出了在上下文中的代码建议,既进一步他们的故事,并引入新的编程概念将开发更大的编程技能比那些没有访问这些建议。假设三:独立学习者根据他们对每个主题的经验水平提供个性化教程,他们的表现会比那些提供单一级别脚手架的独立学习者更好。美国国家工程院将个性化学习列为本世纪工程学面临的重大挑战之一。这个项目将开发和评估两种个性化学习技术的影响:特定于程序的代码建议和个性化的多层次教程。大多数对教育环境的研究都集中在正式的教育环境中,但Looking Glass将推进如何在开放式软件环境中有效支持独立学习的研究。 对Looking Glass的改进将提供一个环境,通过虚拟辅导,为没有计算机科学学习机会的中学生提供计算机编程和学习支持。 该项目的教育计划将计算机科学家的传记整合到Looking Glass和研究博客中,以帮助中学生建立计算机科学的准确形象。
