Consistent with the Experiential Gaming Model, the findings emphasise the importance of GSRSs, like games, for generation and testing of ideas during problem-solving, monitoring one's knowledge through feedback and discussion, and encoding and storing this knowledge for future use.
“Consistent with Experiential Gaming Model (Kiili 2005), these findings further emphasise the importance of GSRSs, like games, for generation and testing of ideas during problem-solving, monitoring one's knowledge through feedback and discussion, and encoding and storing this knowledge for future use (e.g.Ke 2009;Papastergiou 2009).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
