Guo, Ruth Xiaoqing; Dobson, Teresa; Petrina, Stephen – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2008
This article examines the intersection of age and ICT (information and communication technology) competency and critiques the "digital natives versus digital immigrants" argument proposed by Prensky (2001a, 2001b). Quantitative analysis was applied to a statistical data set collected in the context of a study with over 2,000 pre-service…

Smith, Glenn Gordon; Olkun, Sinan – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2005
This study has important implications for microworlds such as Logo, HyperGami, and Newton's World, which use interaction to learn spatial mental models for science, math, geometry, etc. This study tested the hypothesis that interactively rotating (dragging) virtual shapes primes mental rotation. The independent variable was observation vs.…
