OverviewAI-generated summary
Dennis Beck's research investigates educational practices and the use of immersive learning environments. He has explored conceptual frameworks for mapping knowledge and tools within this field, and developed recommendation tools for their application. His work also examines the characteristics of students who attend cyber schools, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, and investigates factors influencing enrollment choices, including the potential impact of bullying on non-binary students. Beck has also conducted literature reviews on immersive learning environments for self-regulation of learning. He has published 128 works with an h-index of 18 and over 1,100 citations. His collaborators at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville include Robert Maranto, Martha Bradley-Dorsey, Camie Wood, and Christian Z. Goering.
