Ceberio, Mikel; Almudí, José Manuel; Franco, Ángel – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2016
In recent years, interactive computer simulations have been progressively integrated in the teaching of the sciences and have contributed significant improvements in the teaching-learning process. Practicing problem-solving is a key factor in science and engineering education. The aim of this study was to design simulation-based problem-solving…

Liou, Wei-Kai; Bhagat, Kaushal Kumar; Chang, Chun-Yen – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2016
The present study compares the highly interactive cloud-classroom (HIC) system with traditional methods of teaching materials science that utilize crystal structure picture or real crystal structure model, in order to examine its learning effectiveness across three dimensions: knowledge, comprehension and application. The aim of this study was to…

Ülen, Simon; Cagran, Branka; Slavinec, Mitja; Gerlic, Ivan – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2014
Many educational researchers have investigated how best to support conceptual learning in science education. In this study, the aim was to design learning materials using Physlets, small computer simulations, and to evaluate the effectiveness of these materials in supporting conceptual learning in secondary school physics. Students were taught in…

Kozhevnikov, Michael; Gurlitt, Johannes; Kozhevnikov, Maria – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2013
The focus of the current study is to understand which unique features of an immersive virtual reality environment have the potential to improve learning relative motion concepts. Thirty-seven undergraduate students learned relative motion concepts using computer simulation either in immersive virtual environment (IVE) or non-immersive desktop…

Lamb, Richard L.; Annetta, Len – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2013
The purpose of the study was to review the efficacy of online chemistry simulations in a high school chemistry class and provide discussion of the factors that may affect student learning. The sample consisted of 351 high school students exposed to online simulations. Researchers administered a pretest, intermediate test and posttest to measure…

Kiboss, Joel K.; Ndirangu, Mwangi; Wekesa, Eric W. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2004
Biology knowledge and understanding is important not only for the conversion of the loftiest dreams into reality for a better life of individuals but also for preparing secondary pupils for such fields as agriculture, medicine, biotechnology, and genetic engineering. But a recent study has revealed that many aspects of school science (biology…
