MicronutriPolymed: Game-Based vs. Traditional Learning Outcomes

Anonymized data from a study comparing a custom 'Monopoly Micronutrient' game to UNO card-based discussions for teaching nutrition. Participants' scores on multiple-choice knowledge, self-directed learning readiness, critical thinking, and creativity were measured across control and experimental groups. The dataset is cleaned and focuses on variables relevant to evaluating the intervention's effectiveness.

Use Cases

• Comparing knowledge acquisition (MCQ scores) between game-based and traditional discussion-based learning methods.
• Analyzing the impact of a specific intervention (MicronutriPolymed) on self-directed learning readiness (SDLR scores).
• Evaluating correlations between critical thinking and creativity outcomes in a nutrition education context.
• Assessing the effectiveness of a tailored educational game for a specific topic (micronutrients).

Strengths

• Dataset is explicitly cleaned and anonymized, with personal identifiers removed.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license, facilitating reuse.
• Contains multiple validated outcome measures (MCQ, SDLR, critical thinking, creativity) for a comparative study.

Limitations

• Column names and exact row count are not provided, limiting immediate analysis.
• The dataset's size (140591 bytes) suggests a relatively small-scale study.
• The last update date (March 2026) is in the future, indicating a metadata error.
