| Abstract: |
This paper presents a preliminary study in which a study was conducted to research how self-reflection can influence learner’s playstyle in a playful learning experience. The participants were asked to play a music studio simulator game with a “think aloud” protocol. Epistemic Network Analysis (ENA), a mixed research method, was applied to analyze their discourse data. We discovered that encouraging self-reflection in playful learning experiences would make learners play more slowly and thoughtfully.
