We focused our research on the formative assessment of a web-based, role-playing simulation to better understand its effectiveness, efficiency, and usability prior to implementation. Participants received an email invitation with a link to the simulation. After completing the simulation activities, participants were asked to complete an electronic questionnaire. In addition, participants were offered incentives to participate in a face-to-face think-aloud protocol, in which the participants navigated the simulation while answering questions and describing their thoughts out loud to the researcher. In total, forty-two participants completed the electronic survey and ten participants completed the face-to-face think-aloud protocol. The results indicate that participants found that the web-based, role-playing simulation adequately synthesized fundamental knowledge and skills; it is organized in a way that helped the learner; and it is easy to navigate. However, this formative assessment of experiential role-playing aging simulation also showed that there are improvements and adjustments that should be considered before implementing it as an instructional tool. Although participants were eager to learn more about the subject presented, the message design (graphics, animations, and colors) needed careful consideration and revision.

使用形成性评估检查基于Web的体验性角色扮演老化模拟的有效性,效率和可用性

我们将研究重点放在基于网络的角色扮演模拟的形成性评估上,以便在实施之前更好地了解其有效性,效率和可用性。参加者收到了一封邀请函,其中包含模拟链接。完成模拟活动后,要求参与者填写电子问卷。此外,还向参与者提供了参加面对面思考对话协议的激励措施,其中参与者在回答问题并向研究人员大声描述自己的想法的同时导航了模拟过程。总共有42位参与者完成了电子问卷调查,有10位参与者完成了面对面的思想对话协议。结果表明,参与者发现基于网络的,角色扮演模拟充分地综合了基本知识和技能;它的组织方式对学习者有帮助;而且很容易导航。但是,这种对体验式角色扮演老化模拟的形成性评估也表明,在将其实现为教学工具之前,应该考虑一些改进和调整。尽管参与者渴望了解有关所介绍主题的更多信息,但消息设计(图形,动画和颜色)仍需要仔细考虑和修改。
