Journal ArticleSciStory: Designing AI-Supported Inquiry in Science Learning GamesHumburg, Megan; Danish, Joshua; Kim, Yeojin; Hmelo-Silver, Cindy; Dragnić-Cindrić, Dalila; Ryan, Zach; Glazewski, Krista (ORCID:0000000234124218); Lester, James<p>This design case explores how an AI-supported, narrative-centered science learning game (SciStory: Pollinators) was designed over multiple iterations to support middle schoolers’ socioscientific learning, engagement, and persuasive writing. The case highlights how AI-driven conversational agents were designed to support student-led socioscientific inquiry, and the tensions our team explored as we integrated agents into a story game about community food systems, pollinators, and neighborhood land use.</p>Association for Educational Communications and Technology2025-12-1810660220International Journal of Designs for Learning162170 to 1812159-449Xhttps://doi.org/10.14434/ijdl.v16i2.420492112635National Science Foundation
