Reflection is a critical aspect of the learning process. However, educational games tend to focus on supporting learning concepts rather than supporting reflection. While reflection occurs in educational games, the educational game design and research community can benefit from more knowledge of how to facilitate player reflection through game design. In this paper, we examine educational programming games and analyze how reflection is currently supported. We find that current approaches prioritize accuracy over the individual learning process and often only support reflection post-gameplay. Our analysis identifies common reflective features, and we develop a set of open areas for future work. We discuss these promising directions towards engaging the community in developing more mechanics for reflection in educational games.

In this article we describe Hack.VR, an object-oriented programming game in virtual reality. Hack.VR uses a VR programming language in which nodes represent functions and node connections represent data flow. Using this programming framework, players
reprogram VR objects such as elevators, robots, and switches. Hack.VR has been designed to be highly interactable both physically and semantically.
Machine Learning (ML) is becoming more prevalent in the systems we use daily. Yet designers of these systems are under-equipped to design with these technologies. Recently, interactive visualizations have been used to present ML concepts to non-exper
ts. However, little research exists evaluating how designers build an understanding of ML in these environments or how to instead design interfaces that guide their learning. In a user study (n=21), we observe how designers interact with our interactive visualizer, textit{QUBE}, focusing on visualizing Q-Learning through a game metaphor. We analyze how designers approach interactive visualizations and game metaphors to form an understanding of ML concepts and the challenges they face along the way. We found the interactive visualization significantly improved participants high-level understanding of ML concepts. However, it did not support their ability to design with these concepts. We present themes on the challenges our participants faced when learning an ML concept and their self-guided learning behaviors. Our findings suggest design recommendations for supporting an understanding of ML concepts through guided learning interfaces and game metaphors.
While Alexa can perform over 100,000 skills on paper, its capability covers only a fraction of what is possible on the web. To reach the full potential of an assistant, it is desirable that individuals can create skills to automate their personal web
browsing routines. Many seemingly simple routines, however, such as monitoring COVID-19 stats for their hometown, detecting changes in their childs grades online, or sending personally-addressed messages to a group, cannot be automated without conventional programming concepts such as conditional and iterative evaluation. This paper presents VASH (Voice Assistant Scripting Helper), a new system that empowers users to create useful web-based virtual assistant skills without learning a formal programming language. With VASH, the user demonstrates their task of interest in the browser and issues a few voice commands, such as naming the skills and adding conditions on the action. VASH turns these multi-modal specifications into skills that can be invoked invoice on a virtual assistant. These skills are represented in a formal programming language we designed called WebTalk, which supports parameterization, function invocation, conditionals, and iterative execution. VASH is a fully working prototype that works on the Chrome browser on real-world websites. Our user study shows that users have many web routines they wish to automate, 81% of which can be expressed using VASH. We found that VASH Is easy to learn, and that a majority of the users in our study want to use our system.
Knowledge of human perception has long been incorporated into visualizations to enhance their quality and effectiveness. The last decade, in particular, has shown an increase in perception-based visualization research studies. With all of this recent
progress, the visualization community lacks a comprehensive guide to contextualize their results. In this report, we provide a systematic and comprehensive review of research studies on perception related to visualization. This survey reviews perception-focused visualization studies since 1980 and summarizes their research developments focusing on low-level tasks, further breaking techniques down by visual encoding and visualization type. In particular, we focus on how perception is used to evaluate the effectiveness of visualizations, to help readers understand and apply the principles of perception of their visualization designs through a task-optimized approach. We concluded our report with a summary of the weaknesses and open research questions in the area.
Visual analytics for machine learning has recently evolved as one of the most exciting areas in the field of visualization. To better identify which research topics are promising and to learn how to apply relevant techniques in visual analytics, we s
ystematically review 259 papers published in the last ten years together with representative works before 2010. We build a taxonomy, which includes three first-level categories: techniques before model building, techniques during model building, and techniques after model building. Each category is further characterized by representative analysis tasks, and each task is exemplified by a set of recent influential works. We also discuss and highlight research challenges and promising potential future research opportunities useful for visual analytics researchers.
