Direct linkVisintainer, Tammie; Linn, Marcia – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2015
Developing solutions for complex issues such as global climate change requires an understanding of the mechanisms involved. This study reports on the impact of a technology-enhanced unit designed to improve understanding of global climate change, its mechanisms, and their relationship to everyday energy use. Global Climate Change, implemented in…

Jaakkola, Tomi; Nurmi, Sami; Veermans, Koen – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2011
The aim of this experimental study was to compare learning outcomes of students using a simulation alone (simulation environment) with outcomes of those using a simulation in parallel with real circuits (combination environment) in the domain of electricity, and to explore how learning outcomes in these environments are mediated by implicit (only…
