van der Meij, J.; de Jong, T. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2011
Processing of multiple representations in multimedia learning environments is considered to help learners obtain a more complete overview of the domain and gain deeper knowledge. This is based on the idea that relating and translating different representations leads to reflection beyond the boundaries and details of the separate representations.…

Discovery Simulations and the Assessment of Intuitive Knowledge.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Swaak, Janine; de Jong, T. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2001
Examines relations between the features of discovery simulations, the learning processes elicited, the knowledge that results, and the methods used to measure the acquired knowledge. Discusses intuitive knowledge and describes a study of post-secondary students that investigated the instructional effectiveness of discovery simulations in physics.…
