Pandora Dorouka; Michail Kalogiannakis; Ron Blonder – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Successful integration of digital technologies in the education of young children still needs to be solved. Despite a growing body of research focusing on learning through digital technologies in childhood, there are areas of knowledge where the impact of digital technologies has yet to be explored. A prominent example is nanoscience and…

Song, Yanjie; Wen, Yun – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2018
Despite that BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) technology model has been increasingly adopted in education, few studies have been reported on how to integrate various apps on BYOD into inquiry-based pedagogical practices in primary schools. This article reports a case study, examining what apps on BYOD can help students enhance their science learning,…

Falloon, Garry – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2017
Considerable work over many years has explored the contribution technology can make to science learning, at all levels of education. In the school sector, historically this has focused on the use of fixed, desktop-based or semi-mobile laptop systems for purposes such as experiment data collection or analysis, or as a means of engaging or…

van der Kolk, Koos; Hartog, Rob; Beldman, Gerrit; Gruppen, Harry – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2013
Increasingly, mobile applications appear on the market that can support students in chemistry laboratory classes. In a multiple app-supported laboratory, each of these applications covers one use-case. In practice, this leads to situations in which information is scattered over different screens and written materials. Such a multiple app-supported…

Klopfer, Eric; Yoon, Susan; Perry, Judy – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2005
This paper reports on teachers' perceptions of the educational affordances of a handheld application called Participatory Simulations. It presents evidence from five cases representing each of the populations who work with these computational tools. Evidence across multiple data sources yield similar results to previous research evaluations of…
