Molan, Safa; Weber, Delene; Kor, Matin – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
A problem-based immersive virtual environment (IVE) about bushfire safety was developed as a learning tool for children aged 10-12. Its effectiveness was assessed in relation to children's ability to determine how to be safer in a bushfire incident. A series of experiential activities were developed in the IVE with digital storytelling and…

Aguilar, Jose; Cordero, Jorge; Buendía, Omar – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2018
In this article, we propose the concept of "Autonomic Cycle Of Learning Analysis Tasks" (ACOLAT), which defines a set of tasks of learning analysis, whose objective is to improve the learning process. The data analysis has become a fundamental area for the knowledge discovery from data extracted from different sources. In the autonomic…

Gerson, Charles W. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1998
A formative small-group (n12) evaluation of a pair of opposed computer simulations modeling the thinking of historical ideologies (communist insurgency and counter-insurgency) suggests simulations had value in stimulating and modifying assessments of roles within real-world settings. Explores basic objective of having the simulation user develop a…

McQuaide, Judith; Leinhardt, Gaea; Stainton, Catherine – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1999
Describes a study that examined high school students' ethical reasoning in the context of their participation in a computer simulation of a workplace environment. Includes opportunities for ethical decision-making, classroom observation of participating students, and responses to hypothetical ethical dilemmas. (Author/LRW)

Lajoie, Susanne P.; Azevedo, Roger; Fleiszer, David M. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1998
Describes the development of a simulation-based intelligent tutoring system for nurses working in a surgical intensive care unit. Highlights include situative learning theories and models of instruction, modeling expertise, complex decision making, linking theories of learning to the design of computer-based learning environments, cognitive task…

Taylor, Holly A.; Jensen, Michael D.; Renshaw, Carl E. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Describes two studies that assessed decision-making skills using common cognitive errors and evaluated the impact of computer-based role-playing exercises on the development of these skills. Results with high school students, undergraduates, and earth science professionals are discussed which indicate that well-designed computer-based laboratories…
