Abstract

Nowadays, learning increasingly involves the usage of search engines and web resources. The related interdisciplinary research field search as learning aims to understand how people learn on the web. Previous work has investigated several feature classes to predict, for instance, the expected knowledge gain during web search. Therein, eye-tracking features have not been extensively studied so far. In this paper, we extend a previously used line-based reading model to one that can detect reading sequences across multiple lines. We use publicly available study data from a web-based learning task to examine the relationship between our feature set and the participants’ test scores. Our findings demonstrate that learners with higher knowledge gain spent significantly more time reading, and processing more words in total. We also find evidence that faster reading at the expense of more backward regressions, i.e., re-reading previous portions of text, may be an indicator of better web-based learning. We make our code publicly available at https://github.com/TIBHannover/reading_web_search.
