Learning through viable knowledge creation
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The idea that learners can have styles of learning derives from the work of Kolb, which stems from an inadequate theory of learning behaviour. Learning might better be placed within the context such as the knowledge creation ... -
M.A.P. modular approach to physics Laboratory
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)We present recent developments in the laboratory component of MAP - Modular Approach to Physics - Java enhanced modules to be used as aids in teaching the first three terms of university physics. The MAP project is very ... -
Matlab language as tool for symbolic, semi-symbolic and numerical simulation of electrical networks
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The paper deals with the application of MATLAB mathematical language [2] for simulation of electrical and electronic networks. A library of about 40 m-files (scripts and functions) is described that solves the following ... -
Mechanical oscilations and visualisation with mathematical program maple v
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)This paper engages in using mathematical computer programs in teaching physics at technical universities. As an example there is mentioned making the best of software Maple V for demonstrating forced oscillations and ... -
Medical applications of Computer-based learning
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)Interactive access to instructional materials and educational information is now possible by means of a wide range of relatively low-cost technologies. This means that many new and exciting educational applications of ... -
Models to support multimedia Courseware production
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)Many new technologies are now available for delivering and/or providing access to computer-based learning (CBL) materials. These technologies vary in sophistication in many important ways - depending upon the bandwidth ... -
The network-based ICAI integrate tutoring system
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The “Integrate ware” based on the advanced technologies of the computer science and the idea of the Chinese classical “I ching” is proposed as the idea of the designing courseware that is to adapt the essential elements ... -
New interactive decision games implemented in dega environment
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)Interactive decision games are specifically designed to simulate options and issues of the uncertainty and complexity involved in decision making. Games are used in a PBL (problem based learning) situations, where students ... -
An open learning environment for thermal phenomena
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)In this work we present an open learning environment, suitable for teaching Heat and Thermodynamics. The software consists of two independent visual laboratories (one for Heat and the other for Thermodynamics) and a series ... -
The Physics Assessment and Study Site – An online means to assessing and maintaining course prerequisites
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)A common and obvious goal of education is student success in a selected course. From an instructional standpoint, two important factors in determining this success. Firstly, whether the student possesses the appropriate ... -
Physics web for everybody
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)It is the purpose of this contribution to provide basic information about the creation and first period of running of a web for the support of physics education and about some problems we have met during this work. Our web ... -
Planning, designing and evaluating CBL hypermedia applications
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)This paper presents some criteria about how to plan, design, evaluate and use a CBL hypermedia application. In our university, four years ago, we started a new program called "Multimedia Integrated Model for Active Learning" ... -
Postcourse - www-based course on Databases
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The objective of this paper is to report the experience with further development and use of Postcourse a webbased course on databases. -
Project work in informatics lessons
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The best known method of integrating knowledge from different subjects is by doing cross-curricula projects. Projects carried out in the classroom involve planning, designing, realisation, presentation and evaluation of ... -
Rcos.java: a simulated operating system with animations
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)RCOS.java (Ron Chernich's Operating System) is a Java-based, simulated operating system designed to address student difficulties in understanding operating systems concepts. This paper describes the rationale, design, features ... -
Solar: a case-oriented decision making program in radiography
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)In many professional disciplines, the creation of meaningful learning contexts in order that students can form the essential links between the academic program and the practitioner’s experience, is a huge challenge for ... -
Statistics computing laboratory
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The utility of Statistical Science to a vast range of disciplines, from biological and agricultural sciences,through medical science, education research, and social sciences, is evident by the plethora in a typical university ... -
Symbolic calculus in calculating characteristic and acyclic polynomials of graphs
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)There are many polynomials closely connected with graphs and the theory of graphs. These polynomials are useful both in theory and its application as they enable to determine some properties of graphs and relations among ... -
Systematic analysis of the potential contribution of communication and information tools to the design and development of research-based science curriculum
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)Computer technology has received much attention as a means of reforming educational practice in Physics. It is widely believed that technology could function as a medium for bringing about the necessary reform to ... -
