Dual space search during scientific reasoning
David Klahr,Kevin Dunbar +1 more
TL;DR: A general model of Scientific Discovery as Dual Search (SDDS) is presented that shows how search in two problem spaces (an hypothesis space and an experiment space) shapes hypothesis generation, experimental design, and the evaluation of hypotheses.

The Rational Child: Theories and Evidence in Prediction, Exploration, and Explanation
Elizabeth R. Bonawitz
- 01 Jan 2009
TL;DR: Schulz et al. as discussed by the authors explored how children make rational predictions, exploration, and explanations, and found that differences in prior beliefs or changes in the observed evidence should affect these behaviors.
Exploratory learning of interactive devices
Carol-Ina Trudel
- 28 Apr 1994
TL;DR: In this series of experiments the performance of subjects exploring the various functions of a computer simulated digital watch was observed under three conditions: Unstructured (free exploration), Structured (given a list of goals) and Key Press Limit (restricted to 250 key presses).

Learning Cognitive Feedback Specificity during Training and the Effect on Learning for Cognitive Tasks
Ryan J. Yoder
- 01 Jan 2009
TL;DR: Those participants receiving high specificity learning cognitive feedback showed better learning on a generalization transfer task than those receiving low specificity feedback, suggesting that the specificity of feedback leads to different types of learning.

Organized Chaos! : Untangling multigenerational group interactions in a gamified science center.
Biswajit Sarker
- 01 Jan 2015
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the group dynamics in terms of what determines who takes the lead while multigenerational groups interact with different types of experiments and suggest that the age of different group members and specific design aspects of the experiments play the most important roles in the emergence of leadership.
