Frezzo, Dennis C.; Behrens, John T.; Mislevy, Robert J. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2010
Simulation environments make it possible for science and engineering students to learn to interact with complex systems. Putting these capabilities to effective use for learning, and assessing learning, requires more than a simulation environment alone. It requires a conceptual framework for the knowledge, skills, and ways of thinking that are…
