Harriet R. Tenenbaum; Jo Van Herwegen – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2024
Many technological applications (apps) purport to help children learn academic material. Building on research in developmental and educational psychology, we developed and tested an app to teach biological and physical science content to preschool children. There were 21 children in the control condition (M[subscript age] = 50.30 months, SD =…

Christian, Wolfgang; Belloni, Mario; Sokolowska, Dagmara; Cox, Anne; Dancy, Melissa – Physics Education, 2020
Over the past 25 years, the Davidson College Physics Department has developed small computer programs called Physlets. These programs were written in Java and distributed as Java applets embedded in HTML pages. Physics teachers from around the world used Physlets to author interactive computer-based curricular materials for the teaching of…

gPhysics--Using Smart Glasses for Head-Centered, Context-Aware Learning in Physics Experiments
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kuhn, Jochen; Lukowicz, Paul; Hirth, Michael; Poxrucker, Andreas; Weppner, Jens; Younas, Junaid – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2016
Smart Glasses such as Google Glass are mobile computers combining classical Head-Mounted Displays (HMD) with several sensors. Therefore, contact-free, sensor-based experiments can be linked with relating, near-eye presented multiple representations. We will present a first approach on how Smart Glasses can be used as an experimental tool for…
