Chen, Yi-Ching; Chang, Yu-Shan; Chuang, Meng-Jung – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Virtual reality (VR) can promote design performance, and may generate a high cognitive load and affect creative design thinking as well. In order to examine the effect of VR application on cognitive load and engineering design creativity, this study recruited 81 eighth-grade students as participants and employed a non-equivalent-groups…

Almasseri, Mohammed; AlHojailan, Mohammed I. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
The study aims to identify the effect of a flipped classroom approach designed according to the cognitive theory of multimedia learning on the academic achievements of eighth-grade students (aged 14 years) in Saudi Arabia in computer science. To this end, a quasi-experimental design was used, with a sample of 67 students; 33 students were assigned…

A Comparison Study of Polyominoes Explorations in a Physical and Virtual Manipulative Environment
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Yuan, Y.; Lee, C. -Y.; Wang, C. -H. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2010
This study develops virtual manipulative, polyominoes kits for junior high school students to explore polyominoes. The current work conducts a non-equivalent group pretest-post-test quasi-experimental design to compare the performance difference between using physical manipulatives and virtual manipulatives in finding the number of polyominoes.…

Triple Scheme of Learning Support Design for Scientific Discovery Learning Based on Computer Simulation: Experimental Research
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Zhang, Jianwei; Chen, Qi; Sun, Yanquing; Reid, David J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2004
Learning support studies involving simulation-based scientific discovery learning have tended to adopt an ad hoc strategies-oriented approach in which the support strategies are typically pre-specified according to learners' difficulties in particular activities. This article proposes a more integrated approach, a triple scheme for learning…
