Candace Walkington; Mitchell J. Nathan; Julianna Washington; Jonathan Hunnicutt; Taylor Darwin; LeaAnne Daughrity; Kelsey Schenck – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Augmented Reality (AR) technologies allow for holograms to be layered over the real-world, "augmenting" human vision by adding technical information or illustrations onto 3D space. Although AR-based applications are showing positive effects in many systematic reviews and meta-analyses, well-designed, rigorous studies with strong control…

van Dijke-Droogers, Marianne; Drijvers, Paul; Bakker, Arthur – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
This paper comprises the results of a design study that aims at developing a theoretically and empirically based learning trajectory on statistical inference for 9th-grade students. Based on theories of informal statistical inference, an 8-step learning trajectory was designed. The trajectory consisted of two similar four step sequences: (1)…

Mulders, Miriam – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
Theoretical background: Learning in virtual realities (VR) has become increasingly important. In this context, VR appears to be particularly conducive to affective learning objectives, such as perspective-taking in VR actors. Previous research has often focused on investigating cause-effect relationships that focus on the direct effects of…

da Silva, Renan Amorim; de Vasconcelos, Flávia Cristina Gomes Catunda – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This paper presents an analysis of cognitive skill levels expressed in high school students' performance using laboratory simulations. We address lower-order cognitive skills (LOCS) and higher-order cognitive skills (HOCS) situations in a virtual simulation activity, in order to identify and underly further discussions about students' reasoning…

Weng, Cathy; Puspitasari, Dani; Tran, Khanh Nguyen Phuong; Feng, Pei Jie; Awuor, Nicholas O.; Matere, Isaac Manyonge – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of augmented reality (AR) using a 3D app in a smartphone on students' learning outcomes and satisfaction in teaching angle measurement error to vocational high school students with different spatial ability. A quasi-experimental pretest/posttest was employed. There were 197 students from…

Cano, Junar S.; Olvis, Paul R.; Disca, Berlita Y.; Docena, Aida F. – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2022
The essence of Genetics lies in the understanding of the concepts of Central Dogma of Molecular Biology. Although these ideas are fundamental to the field, they are notoriously difficult to understand and visualize. While simulation-based instructional materials are found to improve the teaching-learning process in science education, little has…

Lindgren, Robb; Morphew, Jason W.; Kang, Jina; Planey, James; Mestre, José P. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Science students frequently struggle to apply crosscutting concepts such as scale or rates of change, and do not always effectively differentiate between linear and nonlinear processes. We approach this challenge from an embodied cognition perspective, which suggests learning can be facilitated by engaging students in physical activities that are…

Christian D. Pirlet – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Social studies teachers are consistently looking for new avenues to motivate learners. To facilitate this process, simulations and roleplaying have garnered considerable attention. However, game-based simulations have received little consideration in social studies classrooms. Through game-based simulations, teachers can create sophisticated…

Huang, Hsiu-Ling; Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Chang, Ching-Yi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
In language education, the development of writing capability is an important and challenging teaching objective. Writing performance is related not only with students' comprehension and expression of texts, but also their experience and perceptions of the contexts. Descriptive article writing is a basic writing activity; the content includes…

Larkin Weyand; Jon Balzotti; Derek L. Hansen – English Journal, 2019
Educational simulations provide students authentic contexts. These authentic contexts require situated and complex real-world arguments. Such writing scenarios help students recognize why there are often multiple interpretations of evidence, who their audience is, what they want, and what kind of genre is needed. Playable Case Studies help…
