Использование игрового чат-бота для развития навыков алгоритмического и логического мышления
Информатика и образование. 2024. Т. 39. № 2. С. 48–58.
The use of special computer games in classes increases student engagement and maintains their interest in learning, including learning computer science. Due to the logical and rational nature of solving programming problems, logic games and puzzle games that develop cognitive abilities, logical and algorithmic thinking are well suited for teaching computer science. Considering the popularity of Wordle puzzle game and the fact that word games are very effective for developing cognitive abilities, a gaming chatbot with puzzle tasks organized according to Wordle principles was developed for learning computer science and programming. The aim of the article is to investigate the effect of the developed gaming chatbot on students’ algorithmic and logical thinking.
The study involved 3rd year undergraduate students of the educational program “Information Systems and Technologies”, Faculty of Information Technologies, Moscow Polytechnic University. The students used the gaming chatbot outside of class for 10 days and completed surveys before and after use. The analysis of the students’ surveys showed the impact of this gaming chatbot on the activation of memory, attention and to a greater extent logical thinking of the students, as well as on assessing students’ perception of the complexity of programming, their own knowledge of programming languages and logical thinking skills.
The results of the study expand current ideas regarding the use of gaming chatbots and Wordle-type puzzle tasks in teaching computer science and programming. The presented gaming chatbot will help to increase students’ interest in classes, students’ involvement in the learning process, and ensure the development of their cognitive abilities.
The conclusions of the article may be of practical interest to informatics and programming teachers. They contribute to the development of the direction of building gaming chatbots, as well as the use of word puzzles for teaching computer science.

The integration of data-driven and knowledge-driven approaches in generative geospatial modelling (GGM) is often hindered by their mathematical incompatibilities. Here, we propose a geometric algebra (GA)-based framework that employs a unified multi-vector representation to fuse heterogeneous data and diverse knowledge. The framework facilitates structured reasoning and hypothesis generation through a task-adaptable, five-stage cycle: representation, reasoning, ...

EEG recordings are often affected by the loss or corruption of individual channels due to electrode detachment, poor scalp contact, or external interference. Such channels must be accurately reconstructed before further analysis. In this study, we investigate Next-Generation Reservoir Computing (NG-RC) as a data-driven approach for reconstructing corrupted EEG channels and compare its performance with ...

Biometric vein recognition systems are vulnerable to presentation attacks. Traditionally, researchers have used a near-infrared (NIR) drawing of the user’s vascular bed to create a presentation attack instrument (PAI). This paper investigates the feasibility of using free software to capture a venous pattern of the hand without NIR under normal lighting conditions and to create ...
