I describe a kinesthetic activity about oxygen handling by hemoglobin with two specific goals: (1) to help students gain a better understanding of how hemoglobin properties affect oxygen delivery and (2) to improve the ability of the students to actually read the hemoglobin oxygen-binding curve. The activity makes understanding oxygen delivery…

A kinesthetic approach to developing ideas of function transformations can get students physically and intellectually involved. This article presents low- or no-cost activities which use kinesthetics to support high school students' mathematical understanding of transformations of function graphs. The important point of these activities is to help…

Learner centred design methods highlight the importance of involving the stakeholders of the learning process (learners, teachers, educational researchers) at all stages of the design of educational applications and of refining the design through an iterative prototyping process. These methods have been used successfully when designing systems…
