Eye tracking is increasingly being used in Educational Science and so has the interest of the eye tracking community grown in this topic. In this paper we briefly introduce the discipline of Educational Science and why it might be interesting to couple it with eye tracking research. We then introduce three major research areas in Educational Science that have already successfully used eye tracking: First, eye tracking has been used to improve the instructional design of computer-based learning and testing environments, often using hyper- or multimedia. Second, eye tracking has shed light on expertise and its development in visual domains, such as chess or medicine. Third, eye tracking has recently been also used to promote visual expertise by means of eye movement modeling examples. We outline the main educational theories for these research areas and indicate where further eye tracking research is needed to expand them.
眼动追踪在教育科学中的应用越来越广泛，眼动追踪领域对这一主题的兴趣也与日俱增。在本文中，我们简要介绍教育科学学科，以及将其与眼动追踪研究相结合可能具有的趣味性。然后，我们介绍教育科学中已经成功应用眼动追踪的三个主要研究领域：第一，眼动追踪已被用于改进基于计算机的学习和测试环境的教学设计，通常会使用超媒体或多媒体。第二，眼动追踪揭示了视觉领域（如国际象棋或医学）中的专业技能及其发展。第三，眼动追踪最近还被用于通过眼动建模示例来提升视觉专业技能。我们概述了这些研究领域的主要教育理论，并指出需要进一步开展眼动追踪研究以拓展这些领域的方向。
