Christoph Hoyer; Raimund Girwidz – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Vector fields are a highly abstract physical concept that is often taught using visualizations. Although vector representations are particularly suitable for visualizing quantitative data, they are often confusing, especially when describing real fields such as magnetic and electric fields, as the vector arrows can overlap. The present study…

Electrochemistry Under Microscope: Observing the Diffusion Layer and Measuring Diffusion Coefficient
Lida Khalafi; Nastaran Nikzad; Asayiel Alhajeri; Brandon Bacon; Karla Alvarado; Mohammad Rafiee – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The area near the electrode surface is called the diffusion layer, and to understand electrochemistry, it is crucial that students have a knowledge of the phenomena occurring at the diffusion layer. Here, we present a demonstration and activity to visualize and analyze the expansion of a micrometer-sized diffusion layer. The electrode process…

Moon, Su Jin; Chen, Yu; Lee, Jiwon; Jung, Pyung Kang; Cho, Youngsaeng; Kim, Jung Bog – Physics Education, 2021
Students are well aware that when an electric current flows through a light bulb, it glows. As their grade increases, they have understood that electric current flows because electric charges move. Since the transfer of electric charges is not visible, students have many cognitive difficulties in understanding this process, and teaching materials…

Campos, Francisco M. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Circuit simulation, together with practical sessions, is considered a fundamental tool to assist in the teaching of electronics. Robotics offers rich real-world applications that foster student interest in developing engineering projects. Despite the potential benefits of uniting these two realities, software tools that combine circuits and…

Singh, I.; Khun, K. Khun; Kaur, B.; Kaur, H.; Singh, T. – Physics Education, 2021
This paper describes a way to simulate and visualise 3D representations of the resultant electric field vector propagation for plane, circular and elliptically polarised waves. These polarisation states are obtained by the superposition of two coherent linearly polarised waves oscillating in two mutually perpendicular directions. The required data…

Unsworth, Len; Herrington, Michele – Research in Science Education, 2023
The significance of the role of students' interpretation and creation of multiple forms of representation in science learning has long been established and advocated, but there is a paucity of research into the extent to which this emphasis in science education is reflected in high stakes final year high school science examinations. This study…

Veith, Sonja Isabel; Friege, Gunnar – Physics Education, 2021
Sound is an interesting topic for physics lessons at all ages. However, it is difficult to illustrate this ubiquitous phenomenon and many models do not adequately represent the properties of sound and thus promote unwanted conceptions. The experiment presented here avoids this by visualising sound itself with the help of the schlieren technique.…

Hughes, Theo; Kersting, Magdalena – Physics Education, 2021
Recently, the physics education community has taken a keen interest in modernising physics education. However, while topics in modern physics have great potential to engage students, these topics are abstract and hard-to-visualise. Therefore, many students hold mistaken pictures and misconceptions, which can impede learning. In this article, we…

Mohammad M. Zeidan; Jessica Allred; Ruikun Zhao – Journal of Learning Development in Higher Education, 2023
Physics is an essential subject in most fields of Science and Engineering which cannot be mastered simply by watching lectures or solving problems at the end of each chapter: students must fully engage in solving these problems. This often requires problem visualisation, which presents quite a challenge for some, especially for students who are…

Semilarski, Helen; Soobard, Regina; Holbrook, Jack; Rannikmäe, Miia – International Journal of STEM Education, 2022
Background: The goal of this research was to determine students' perceived self-efficacy in science classes through involving students in expanding disciplinary core idea (DCI) and interdisciplinary core idea (ICI) maps, as a method to visualize knowledge (utilizing mind mapping and concept mapping) to support students to integrate…

Reina Karen M. Celestino-Salcedo; Jr. Sotero O. Malayao Jr.; Monera A. Salic-Hairulla; Ellen J. Castro; Ivy Claire V. Mordeno – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2024
The challenge of creating reliable technology-based resources for science learning is a perennial challenge in Philippine education, with limited learning materials accessible to all learners. This study is about the development of a videocast embedded with physics education technology (PhET) simulation that served as supplementary learning…

Stolzenberger, Christoph; Frank, Florian; Trefzger, Thomas – Physics Education, 2022
With the help of augmented reality apps objects and text can be added virtually to the physical world (e.g. physical experiments) in real time. The augmented reality (AR) app 'PUMA: "Spannungslabor"' enhances simple electric circuits experiments for students with virtual representations based on the electron gas analogy including…

Kersting, Magdalena; Steier, Rolf; Venville, Grady – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2021
Virtual reality applications turn abstract concepts into experienceable phenomena and present exciting opportunities to transform science education and public outreach practices. While research has started to look into the affordances of virtual reality (VR) in the formal science education context, the potential of these technologies to enhance…

Holly, Michael; Pirker, Johanna; Resch, Sebastian; Brettschuh, Sandra; Gütl, Christian – Educational Technology & Society, 2021
Skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are increasingly in demand. Theoretical knowledge and formulas alone are frequently not sufficient to understand complex phenomena. Simulations are a valuable tool to support the conceptual understanding by visualizing invisible processes. The constant interaction with the learning…
