Visualizing learning assessment data in a physics game

Understanding how to assess learning is a big topic in education today, and as games are coming to the forefront as a valuable education tool, people are starting to wonder what games might be able to say about assessment. Well, at Iridescent we’ve been wondering about that too. This past summer we offered an internship to Vishesh Kumar to visualize and understand what our Ethers games might be able to say about Iridescent’s assessment claims. Vishesh spent the summer visualizing the data in both of our Ethers games in a initial exploratory analysis. We’re excited to be able to share the results with you in this blog post!

You can read the report from this past summer here. Please feel free to leave us comments in this blog post, we want to hear your thoughts!
