Analogy of thinking process from gaze information in drawing programming task

Published: 26 November 2021 Publication History

Abstract

This paper proposes an analogy method of the thinking process in programming by modeling the learner's line of sight in drawing tasks suitable for beginners. The expansion of programming education requires bringing up the thinking ability unique to programming. In programming, learners have to build plans to combine components using various programming techniques, one by one. To judge the learner's thinking process, every instructor needs to observe the learner's behavior for a long time. Since the learner's line of sight is a behavior that well expresses the state of thinking, a state transition model that captures the characteristics of the learner's answering process is created from records in line-of-sight tracking. This method is expected to figure out the similarity of learners who follow the same thinking process as others. In a verification experiment based on this idea, we have found common characteristics to all learners' state transition models. However, it also revealed the necessity of improvements in the method for discriminating similarities among learners.
