Abstract:
Data and R Scripts necessary to reproduce results of ESD study at NUIG conducted and analysed in 2020-2021. The study aimed to investigate whether Systems Thinking (ST) and/or System Dynamics simulation (Sim) increased the effectiveness of Sustainability Education. In the study, participants were randomly allocated to one of four groups, and interacted with an online learning tool which contained embedded quizzes. Their performance in these quizzes formed the basis for comparison between groups. An open access of the learning tool is available (...)
Data and R Scripts necessary to reproduce results of ESD study at NUIG conducted and analysed in 2020-2021. The study aimed to investigate whether Systems Thinking (ST) and/or System Dynamics simulation (Sim) increased the effectiveness of Sustainability Education. In the study, participants were randomly allocated to one of four groups, and interacted with an online learning tool which contained embedded quizzes. Their performance in these quizzes formed the basis for comparison between groups. An open access of the learning tool is available here: https://exchange.iseesystems.com/public/carolineb/sustainability-learning-tool/. The R Scripts folder contains 4 R scripts used for data analysis. Run the script function_qualitative.R first. The data folder contains the anonymised research data. Create a folder called data beneath the folder containing your R scripts. The model folder contains the System Dynamics deer model (.stmx) file, used for the simulation exercises. The surveys folder is for reference only. It contains the surveys and quizzes used to collect the data, together with quiz marking schemes, code books and quiz answers. In the data, group members are identified by a number from 0 to 3: group 0 means control group, group 1 means ST group, group 2 means Sim group and group 3 means ST + Sim group. For more details see README.md and the readme.txt files in each folder. (Read More)
