A sketching game for art history instruction
Abstract
Study of images, in contexts as widespread as medicine, geography, and art history, demands attention to detail and exercise of memory. Presented with traditional textbooks, students have difficulty concentrating for the long periods of time needed to absorb the information. This paper presents a sketch-based game for learning images. We tested the game in the domain of art history, and in a controlled user study, we found that it dramatically increased the time that participants chose to spend learning about historical paintings. The increase in study time was accompanied by a proportionate increase in information retention and familiarity with the images.

“Three of the studies (Wasson et al. 2013;Grivokostopoulou et al. 2016;Sanmugam et al. 2016) were excluded from the analysis to avoid bias after the forest plot; displaying the effect sizes for the analysis of cognitive learning outcomes showed that the corresponding effect sizes were extraordinarily large (see Fig. 2).”

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.
