用大模型分析幼儿游戏自述,准确率达90%以上
Validating the Effectiveness of a Large Language Model-based Approach for Identifying Children's Development across Various Free Play Settings in Kindergarten
- 用大语言模型解析儿童游戏自述,识别发展能力
- 在4个游戏区收集2224条记录,多领域识别准确超90%
- 适合教育研究者和早期教育实践者参考
自由游戏是幼儿教育的基础,促进认知、社交、情感和运动发展。但其非结构化特性使评估困难,传统观察法难以全面捕捉并及时反馈。本研究提出结合大语言模型(LLMs)与学习分析的方法,分析儿童对游戏经历的自述。LLM用于识别发展能力,学习分析技术计算各游戏场景下的表现分数。研究采集了29名儿童在一个学期中于4个不同游戏区域的2,224条游戏叙事。八位专业评审评估显示,该方法在认知、运动和社交能力识别上均达高精度,多数领域准确率超过90%。不同游戏场景间发展结果差异显著,凸显各区域对特定能力的独特贡献。结果表明该方法能有效识别儿童在多样化自由游戏环境中的发展水平。研究展示了融合大模型与学习分析在生成以儿童为中心的发展洞察方面的潜力,为个性化教学提供数据支持,助力早期教育实践优化。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Free play is a fundamental aspect of early childhood education, supporting children's cognitive, social, emotional, and motor development. However, assessing children's development during free play poses significant challenges due to the unstructured and spontaneous nature of the activity. Traditional assessment methods often rely on direct observations by teachers, parents, or researchers, which may fail to capture comprehensive insights from free play and provide timely feedback to educators. This study proposes an innovative approach combining Large Language Models (LLMs) with learning analytics to analyze children's self-narratives of their play experiences. The LLM identifies developmental abilities, while performance scores across different play settings are calculated using learning analytics techniques. We collected 2,224 play narratives from 29 children in a kindergarten, covering four distinct play areas over one semester. According to the evaluation results from eight professionals, the LLM-based approach achieved high accuracy in identifying cognitive, motor, and social abilities, with accuracy exceeding 90% in most domains. Moreover, significant differences in developmental outcomes were observed across play settings, highlighting each area's unique contributions to specific abilities. These findings confirm that the proposed approach is effective in identifying children's development across various free play settings. This study demonstrates the potential of integrating LLMs and learning analytics to provide child-centered insights into developmental trajectories, offering educators valuable data to support personalized learning and enhance early childhood education practices.
