Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article consists of four sections: (1) the problems associated with asthma in the province of Québec and across Canada; (2) the theoretical framework for the learning enhanced by our online educational game entitled Asthme: 1,2,3 … Respirez! ( Asthma: 1,2,3 … Breath!), created by adapting the popular board game Parcheesi, and intended for students in a senior secondary school health education program (14 to 18 years old); (3) the methods employed, including a description of the educational game, the quasi-experimental research protocol, the sample, the variables being studied, the measurement instruments, the pilot study, the procedures, and the data analysis; and (4) the results of the study and discussion of the results. The results of the paired t-tests showed significant improvements in a variety of cognitive skills after students played the game on laptops in their classrooms for 40–60 minutes. No differences were found between males and females. These results are encouraging for teachers who wish to use educational digital games in their classrooms.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
