| contents | Skills in the field of computer science (CS) are increasingly in demand. Often traditional teaching approaches are not sufficient to teach complex computational concepts. Interactive and digital learning experiences have been shown as valuable tools to support learners in understanding. However, the missing social interaction affects the quality of the learning experience. Adding collaborative and competitive elements can make the virtual learning environment even more social, engaging, and motivating for learners. In this paper, we explore the potential of collaborative and competitive elements in an interactive virtual laboratory environment with a focus on computer science education. In an AB study with 35 CS students, we investigated the effectiveness of collaborative and competitive elements in a virtual laboratory using interactive visualizations of sorting algorithms. |
