Using GIFT to Support an Empirical Study on the Impact of the Self-Reference Effect on Learning

چکیده
A study is reported in which participants gained experience with deductive reasoning and learned how to complete logic grid puzzles through a computerized tutorial. The names included in the clues and content of the puzzle varied by condition. The names present throughout the learning experience were either the participant’s own name, and the names of two friends; the names of characters from a popular movie/book series (Harry Potter); or names that were expected to have no relationship to the individual participant (which served as a baseline). The experiment was administered using the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT). GIFT was used to provide surveys, open the experimental programs in PowerPoint, open external web-sites, synchronize a Q-sensor, and extract experimental data. The current paper details the study that was conducted, discusses the benefits of using GIFT, and offers recommendations for future improvements to GIFT.
