The effect of real and virtual laboratory experimentation on students’ understanding of electric circuits
(University of Zilina, 2005)This study compared the effect of Virtual Laboratory Experimentation (VLE) - use of virtual apparatus and material to conduct an experiment on a computer - and Real Laboratory Experimentation (RLE) - use of real apparatus ... -
An interactive simulation to evaluate student understanding of moon phase formation
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)The development of student understanding of phases of the moon is notoriously difficult due to the spatial reasoning requirements posed by the relative motion of three celestial bodies. We have used the Greek version of ... -
Modelling and inquiring sound attenuation: design-based research about an ICT enhanced Unit on materials science
(University of Cyprus, 2008)In this paper we present preliminary results of a design-based research about a teaching/learning unit on Sound Attenuation, which is part of a international research-based curriculum project on Materials Science. The ... -
The rationale, design, and implementation of a web-based inquiry learning environment
(University of Cyprus, 2007)It is reported that, without appropriate support, students might face several difficulties when engaging in highlevel reasoning in science. This paper discusses the design of a software-based tool to support students’ ... -
Talking physics in inquiry based virtual laboratory activities
(University of Cyprus, 2010)This study refers to secondary students working in a simulated virtual open laboratory environment using “Thermolab”, following an innovative course on thermal phenomena, being engaged in a variety of activities, ranging ...
