    • The development of modeling skills through computer based simulation of an ant colony 

      Constantinide, K. C.; Kalyfommatou, N. G.; Constantinou, Constantinos P. (Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)
      Learning in science can be analyzed into a number of constituent components: the acquisition of experiences with natural phenomena provides the basis for the subsequent development of concepts; the mental representation ...
    • Difficulties in representing microscopic phenomena on the internet: the case of brownian motion 

      Dimitriadi, Kyriaki; Halkia, Krystallia (Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
      Brownian Motion is the motion during which the particles suspended in a fluid move in a random way in all directions. Randomness is a key concept in understanding the phenomenon. Also, because it refers to molecular motion, ...
    • Exploring the nardoo –designing simulations that support improved learning outcomes for students studying issues of management of a water catchment 

      Corderoy, Robert. M.; Harper, Barry. M.; Hedberg, John. G. (Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
      Whole catchment management of water resources is a complex process requiring students to develop an understanding of systems and processes which operate at over extended timeframes at both a macro and micro environmental ...
    • Functional comprehension of concepts and Graphical representations in kinematics Supported by M.B.l. and simulations 

      Ovadias, Savvas; Trikalinos, Christos (University of Cyprus, 2007)
      The aim of this paper is the formulation of an instructive proposal for the conceptual comprehension of phenomena of Kinematics in one dimension, in the Greek Lyceum, supported by: suitable laboratory activities with the ...
    • Information technology for understanding Science (it for us) 

      Rogers, Laurence T. (University of Cyprus, 2008)
      The principal aim of the IT for US Project is to present teachers with a vision for the use of ICT in science teaching which exploits the qualities of software tools for developing conceptual understanding of scientific ...
