In the latest episode of Kees Studies, Kees goes into the world of learning with technology. Guided by Farideh and assistant professor Ilona Friso, he tests how well instructional videos work for people with no experience driving an asphalt roller.
Farideh wants to know how instructional videos can best be used by people in technical professions. In the experiment, Kees first receives explanations via video while a sensor tracks his eye movements. He then tests his acquired knowledge in a virtual reality simulation in which he controls an asphalt roller.
The central question: Which of three modes of instruction best captures people with little or no prior knowledge? The combination of eye-tracking and VR gives the research team valuable insights into how attention and learning outcomes are related.
In a Kees Study, Kees donates his body to science and takes viewers through surprising research on campus. This episode shows how hands-on learning is getting smarter thanks to technology.
