Evaluating Children's Interactive Products by Panos Markopoulos,Janet C Read,Stuart MacFarlane,Johanna Hoysniemi Pdf

Evaluating Children's Interactive Products directly addresses the need to ensure that interactive products designed for children — whether toys, games, educational products, or websites — are safe, effective, and entertaining. It presents an essential background in child development and child psychology, particularly as they relate to technology; captures best practices for observing and surveying children, training evaluators, and capturing the child user experience using audio and visual technology; and examines ethical and legal issues involved in working with children and offers guidelines for effective risk management. Based on the authors' workshops, conference courses, and own design experience and research, this highly practical book reads like a handbook, while being thoroughly grounded in the latest research. Throughout, the authors illustrate techniques and principles with numerous mini case studies and highlight practical information in tips and exercises and conclude with three in-depth case studies. This book is recommended for usability experts, product developers, and researchers in the field. * Presents an essential background in child development and child psychology, particularly as they relate to technology. * Captures best practices for observing and surveying children, training evaluators, and capturing the child user experience using audio and visual technology. * Examines ethical and legal issues involved in working with children and offers guidelines for effective risk management.

Interactive Assessment by H. Carl Haywood,David Tzuriel Pdf

The terms interactive and dynamic would never have been associated with psychological and psychoeducational assessment a generation ago. They have currency now because of widespread dissatisfaction with the normative, standardized testing model, criticism of theoretical concepts of intelligence, recognition of abuses of standardized intelligence testing, and frustration with prediction and classification as primary goals of assessment. It is almost certainly true that public policy concerns propel scientific activity far more often than science propels public policy! In the case of psychological assessment, public policy concerns have arisen in the last 20 years primarily around issues of possible "discrimination" against members of ethnic minorities. At the same time, there has been a re surgence of dedication to "excellence in education" goals. These concerns have led to such extreme measures as prohibition of the use of standard ized intelligence tests to determine school placement decisions, especially for minority children. They have led also to a search for alternatives to standardized, normative testing. The chapters in this volume represent a variety of answers to this need.

Evaluating Cognitive Competences in Interaction by Gitte Rasmussen,C.E. Brouwer,Dennis Day Pdf

Evaluation is a part of everyday life. Competences, knowledge and skills are assessed in ordinary as well as in institutional settings like hospitals, clinics and schools. This volume investigates how evaluations are being carried out interactionally. More specifically, it explores how people evaluate each others’ cognitive competences as they deal with each others’ understandings, knowings, feelings, doings, hearings and learnings face-to-face. The contributions focus on different evaluation activities in a variety of institutional settings in Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Holland and the United States of America. All the contributions approach the theme by use of Ethnomethodology (EM) and/or Conversation Analysis (CA). Thus, the analytic interests concern how participants organize activities of evaluating cognitive competences by means of recognizable interactional methods. This approach differs from other approaches and research interests within cognitive science as it concentrates on how people in interaction orient towards cognitive competence irrespective of scientific theories.

Assessment of Online Learners by Paolina Seitz,S. Laurie Hill Pdf

Assessment of Online Learners offers essential foundations, insights, and real-world examples for preservice teachers preparing to assess students in today’s digitized classrooms. When aligned with intended curricula and best practices, assessment not only informs but enhances both instruction and student achievement, though the recent large-scale adaptation of face-to-face learning to online platforms has yielded new challenges and responsibilities for teachers. This book explores shifts in the research and practice of assessment in online environments, the reconceptualization of course content and assessment frameworks in teacher education, the collection of fair and accurate assessment evidence reflecting students’ virtual learning, and more. Drawing from experienced Canadian instructors who overcame the inherent technological obstacles, these chapters showcase how unprecedented changes in schooling can lead to pedagogical renewal, program reevaluation, and a broader understanding of instruction and assessment practices.
