Scalable LLM-based Coding of Dialogue in Healthcare Simulation: Balancing Coding Performance, Processing Time, and Environmental Impact

ArXi:2604.23255v1 Announce Type: cross Research shows that dialogue, the interactive process through which participants articulate their thinking, plays a central role in constructing shared understanding, coordinating action, and shaping learning outcomes in teams. Analysing dialogue content has been central to advancing team learning theory and informing the design of computer-ed collaborative learning environments, yet this progress has depended on labour-intensive qualitative coding.
