Exploring the effects of Open Social Student Model beyond social comparison

摘要

In our journey exploring the effects of Open Student Model (OSM) on students working with programming problems and examples, we have incorporated the idea of social visualizations to extend OSM to Open Social Student Modeling (OSSM). Although comparison features in OSSM, where a student can compare herself to the group or individual peers, have shown to increase students' work, we now shift our attention to other effects. The goal is to explore the OSSM effects beyond comparison, particularly metacognitive support, and we propose a representation of the OSSM towards these lines.
