Torres, David J.; Romero, Andres; Colgan, Wes, III; Ricoy, Ulises M. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2021
Undergraduates use a spike sorting routine developed in Octave to analyze the spiking activity generated from mechanical stimulation of spines of cockroach legs with the inexpensive SpikerBox amplifier and the free software Audacity. Students learn the procedures involved in handling the cockroaches and recording extracellular action potentials…

Nasrin Abdolmaleki; Zari Saeedi – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2024
The thriving technology penetration in all aspects of today's life and deficiency of traditional pedagogies necessitate wise adoption of modern approaches in the educational context. As a few studies concerned the simultaneous application of classical educational theories with modern technological pedagogy, the present researchers launched General…

Pani, John R.; Chariker, Julia H.; Naaz, Farah; Mattingly, William; Roberts, Joshua; Sephton, Sandra E. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2014
Instruction of neuroanatomy depends on graphical representation and extended self-study. As a consequence, computer-based learning environments that incorporate interactive graphics should facilitate instruction in this area. The present study evaluated such a system in the undergraduate neuroscience classroom. The system used the method of…

Schneider, B.; Wallace, J.; Blikstein, P.; Pea, R. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2013
In this paper, we describe the development and evaluation of a microworld-based learning environment for neuroscience. Our system, BrainExplorer, allows students to discover the way neural pathways work by interacting with a tangible user interface. By severing and reconfiguring connections, users can observe how the visual field is impaired and,…
