41. Detailed Rubric With Explanations

42. Yes, as programmed by the user. Results of learning session are related to learner goals. Goal Matching Yes, as per usual. Periodic feedback relates tracked data to learner goals (e.g., learning/achievement is definable (either by designer or user, i.e. five correct iterations) Progress Data Yes, at lower levels of the game Elaborative feedback is available for low certitude responses Elaborative Yes, but see note above. Includes knowledge-of-correct-response feedback (e.g., including response accuracy verification, providing correct answers, etc.) Correct Response NO! By design, the user should have to fuss and guess with as few hints as possible until all the cards are in the correct place and then WHOOSH! they cascade into the bottom left hand corner as serotonin bastes the brain cells with happy juice. After each response, feedback is immediate. Immediate Feedback

43. Thats the plan! Nothing is worse that an old school computerized solitaire program that takes a long, elaborate time to deal the cards! Design ensures waiting and transitional time is minimized. Time Efficient Building the data file will need some guiding GUI boxes. Once the data file is built, the program is meant to be intuitive to the average solitaire player. Design ensures all instructional activities support desired learning outcomes. Lean Maximizes Academic Learning Time It is assumed that the programmer will build this into the game. Sequencing reflects a scheduled framework (e.g., Leitner system) Framework Not technically. The game is presented as the opening desktop each morning. The user can choose to not engage. But the jones must be fed! Design provides for at least one intersession interval of anywhere between one and thirty days (no "cramming"). Cram-proof NO. Pacing and presentation mimics that of a computer solitaire game. Presentation of each item is discrete and spaced. Space/Time Discrete Sequencing and Spacing

44. Yes. Chunking by common name and chunking by apartment. Design enables learner to efficiently "chunk" facts by identifying, connecting (grouping), and sequencing information. Chunking Assuming a savvy programmer/designer Design avoids cognitive overload (e.g., text in close spatial proximity to visuals to avoid split attention cognitive load concerns). Avoids Overload Yes. There are several game variations of increasing difficulty Design acknowledges and adapts to limitations of audience (i.e. universal design and accessibility) Accommodations Depending on the game variation, audio input can be included. I would never use it. Design takes advantage of verbal (text, narration, etc.) and non-verbal (photographs, illustrations, diagrams, etc.) input channels Multi-Channel Manages Cognitive Load

45. Yes, the game is tiered in the manner of spider solitaire. One can play with increasing levels of difficulty: Design builds learner confidence (e.g., providing examples of acceptable achievement). Confidence This program is aimed at a specific target audience: the freecell/solitaire/sudoku crowd. For them, a game like this is better than chocolate Design promotes student satisfaction (e.g., provides recognition and evidence of success, practical application, etc.). Rewards Assuming a competent programmer for the scaffolding, the accuracy is up to the user. Error Free Yes, by design. The user must input the names and faces he/she needs to learn. User must also keep the input file current. Therefore the user controls the level of current relevance. Design makes learning outcomes relevant to students (e.g., connect content to learner goals, interests, learning styles, etc.). Real-World Nope! The goal here is to trick the brain into thinking it is getting its favorite junk food brain candy while actually teaching it something useful, like hiding broccoli in a poptart. Design stimulates learners' inquiry (e.g., give mentally stimulating problems that engage a deeper level of curiosity, etc.). Mental Design maintains learners' attention (e.g., utilize variation). I know from sad experience that the building could fall down around me unnoticed while playing a game like this. Design captures learners' interest (e.g., use simple unexpected events like a loud whistle or an upside-down word in a visual, etc.). Visual Acoustical Tactile Motivating and Engaging

46. Once the data file is built it could be shared with other people trying to learn the same set of names and faces Design facilitates open content (e.g., user-generated content, sharing of content and results, user-user or user-population comparisons of results, etc.) Open Content Design provides high prior-knowledge students with topic-contingent feedback (e.g., system directs learners to find the correct response or a path to additional information). Not Applicable. Response-contingent and topic-contingent feedback would not fit the solitaire model. Design provides low prior-knowledge students with response-contingent feedback (e.g., system explains reasons for correct/incorrect responses) Tunable Goal Specific Prior knowledge plays into the decision of which names and faces to input into the data base. Design determines learner's prior knowledge and goals (e.g., pre-assessment, iterations of a Leitner system, etc.) Prior Knowledge Learning Level Appropriate
