Pierratos, Theodoros; Sotirios, Mandiliotis; Eirini, Dermitzaki – Physics Education, 2022
Teaching of centripetal force in secondary education is a challenging task because of its central role in the circular and rotational motion. The specific equipment needed for experiments that explore the physical law which governs the centripetal force is usually limited in schools. The experiment presented in this paper, is based on a device…

Wakjira, Abdalganiy; Bhattacharya, Samit – International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies, 2021
Students in the online learning who have other responsibilities of life such as work and family face attrition. Constructing a model of engagement with smallest granule of time has not been implemented widely, but implementing it is important as it allows to uncover more subtle patterns. We built a student engagement prediction model using 9…
