  1. Step by Step In Vivo ExperimentationLecture 3 for the IV track of the 2011 PSLC Summer School Philip Pavlik Jr. Carnegie Mellon University

  2. So, you want to run an in vivo experiment? • What is in vitro? • Self-explanation (Chi, Bassok, Lewis, Reimann, & Glaser, 1989) • What is in vivo? • Example take from: • Booth, Siegler, Koedinger & Rittle-Johnson (2008)

  3. Step 0 Become an expert in a content area (e.g., electrodynamics). Find a textbook Talk to an expert (Potentially the most time consuming step.)

  4. Step 1 • Hypothesis • Self-explanation: A self-generated explanation of presented instruction that integrates the presented information with background knowledge and fills in tacit inferences. (from pslc wiki) • Correct examples • Facilitate construction of high-feature validity knowledge components. • Incorrect examples • Weaken low-feature validity knowledge components.

  5. Step 2 • Select a domain • Algebra, geometry, physics, chemistry, Chinese, English • Select a LearnLab site • Riverview High School • Central Westmoreland Career & Technology Center • Talk with instructors • Collaboratively identify “hot spots” in curriculum.

  6. Step 3 • Develop materials • Assessments • Tutor implementation • Get IRB approval.

  7. Corrective self-explanation explanation of incorrect worked example

  8. Typical self-explanation explanation of correct worked example

  9. Step 4 Design Study Self-Explanation of Incorrect Examples

  10. Step 5 • Formulate a Procedure • Pretest • Two forms of the assessment • Intervention • Solve problems with Cognitive Tutor Algebra • Post-test • Talk alternate form of assessment

  11. Step 6 • Run experiment • Collect log files • Collect paper-based assessments • Send Log Data to DataShop • Test Hypotheses

  12. Step 7 • Report your results to the scientific community • Create a wiki page • Give a conference talk • Write a journal paper

  13. Number of correctly answered problems

  14. Number of conceptual errors

  15. Goto Step 1 • Using the results from your in vivo experiment: • Replicate with a new population • Replicate with a new domain • Replicate and Extend in a lab experiment

  16. Summary • Step: 0. Become an expert • Generate a hypothesis (in vitro => in vivo) • Select domain, site, instructors • Develop materials • Design study • Formulate a Procedure • Run experiment & log to DataShop • Report your results • Goto Step 1
