Abstract: In this study, we taught 20 physics students two different visual strategies to graphically interpret the physical meaning of vector field divergence. Using eye-tracking technology, we recorded students’ eye-movement behavior of both strategies when they were engaged in graphical vector field representations. From the eye-tracking data we extracted the number of fixations and saccadic direction and proposed a linear SVM model to classify strategies of problem-solving in the vector field domain. The results show different gaze patterns for the two strategies, and the influence of vector flow orientation on gaze-patterns. A high accuracy of 81.2%(0.11%) has been achieved by testing the algorithm using cross-validation, i.e. that the algorithm is able to predict the strategy the student applies to judge the divergence of a vector field. The results provide guiding tools for learning-effective instruction design and teachers gain benefit from monitoring the students’ non-verbal level of performance and fluency using each strategy. Apart from that, students would receive the objective feedback on their progress of learning. (More)
