Direct linkPodolefsky, Noah S.; Perkins, Katherine K.; Adams, Wendy K. – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2010
This paper extends prior research on student use of computer simulations (sims) to engage with and explore science topics, in this case wave interference. We describe engaged exploration; a process that involves students actively interacting with educational materials, sense making, and exploring primarily via their own questioning. We analyze…
