Researchers have demonstrated a new suite of software tools that analyzes student behavior in an educational game in real time and uses that data to assess how well students are developing and making use of collaborative problem-solving (CPS) skills. These real-time assessments can be used to modify the game in response to student behavior in order to improve learning.

An innovative teaching and learning project led by Dr. Tim Yung of the Faculty of Arts with Dr. Mei Li Khong of the LKS Faculty of Medicine of The University of Hong Kong (HKU) and educators from Tecnológico de Monterrey, International Islamic University Malaysia and Srinakharinwirot University won the Global Silver award for the Sustainability Education Literacy at the 2024 QS Reimagine Education Awards. The winning project is titled “Cross-Cultural Classroom (3C): Empowering Future Leaders with Sustainable Citizenship”.
