Direct linkLui, Michelle; McEwen, Rhonda; Mullally, Martha – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Educators are recognizing the potential power of immersive virtual reality (IVR) to allow learners to experience previously intangible firsthand phenomena, such as atoms and molecules. In this study, an IVR simulation of a complex gene regulation system was co-designed with an undergraduate microbiology course instructor. The course, with 234…

Altmeyer, Kristin; Kapp, Sebastian; Thees, Michael; Malone, Sarah; Kuhn, Jochen; Brünken, Roland – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Learning with hands-on experiments can be supported by providing essential information virtually during lab work. Augmented reality (AR) appears especially suitable for presenting information during experimentation, as it can be used to integrate both physical and virtual lab work. Virtual information can be displayed in close spatial proximity to…

Lai, Ah-Fur; Chen, Chih-Hung; Lee, Gon-Yi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Reading has been regarded as a medium for learning science, revealing the importance of enhancing learners' reading competence in science education. The critical features of science texts are their multiple representations, such as text and visual elements, which assist the representation of science concepts. A multimedia learning environment can…

Chang, Hsin-Yi; Wu, Hsin-Kai; Hsu, Ying-Shao – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2013
Augmented reality (AR) technologies are identified as one of key emerging technologies for education in the next 5 years. AR takes advantage of
virtual objects or information overlaying physical objects or environments, resulting in a mixed reality in which virtual objects and real environments coexist in a meaningful way to augment learning…

Peer reviewedYildiz, Rauf; Atkins, Madeleine – British Journal of Educational Technology, 1996
Examines the effect of 3 different types of multimedia simulation (physical, procedural, and process) for teaching the concept of energy to 14-year-old students. Pre- and posttest results showed significant, consistent cognitive gain for the physical simulation; and a more complex and varied pattern of interaction between type of simulation and…

Lim, Cher, P.; Nonis, Darren; Hedberg, John – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2006
Based on the exploratory study of a 3D multiuser virtual environment (3D MUVE), known as Quest Atlantis (QA), in a series of Primary Four (10- to 11-year-olds) Science lessons at Orchard Primary School in Singapore, this paper examines the issues of learning engagement and describes the socio-cultural context of QA's implementation. The students…
