Pettersson, Anna F.; Karlgren, Klas; Al-Saadi, Jonathan; Hjelmqvist, Hans; Meister, Björn; Zeberg, Hugo; Silén, Charlotte – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Learning anatomy holds specific challenges, like the appreciation of three-dimensional relationships between anatomical structures. So far, there is limited knowledge about how students construct their understanding of topographic anatomy. By understanding the processes by which students learn anatomical structures in 3D, educators will be better…

Tyler G. Harvey; Delphine Dean – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2025
Challenge: While hands-on laboratory experiences are an important component of biomedical engineering curricula, many of the topics which would often benefit most from these experiences are often too time-, space-, and resource-intensive to incorporate into laboratory classes. One such topic is electrophysiology, where phenomena are hard to…

Zoran Sevarac; Jelena Jovanovic; Vladan Devedzic; Bojan Tomic – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
The paper proposes EXPLODE, a new model of exploratory learning environment for teaching and learning neural networks. The EXPLODE model is about pedagogically instrumenting a software development environment to transform it into an exploratory learning environment for neural networks. Such an environment is particularly aimed for students who are…

Kumpulainen, Kristiina; Wong, Chin-Chin; Byman, Jenny; Renlund, Jenny; Vadeboncoeur, Jennifer A. – Journal of Environmental Education, 2023
In this study we investigated how augmented storying fosters children's ecological imagination. Augmented storying couples culturally-based nature stories embedded in augmented storytelling technology with children's own mobile and multimodal storying activities outdoors in local ecologies. The study took place during a four-month,…

Zhang, Jia; Huang, Yu-Ting; Liu, Tzu-Chien; Sung, Yao-Ting; Chang, Kuo-En – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Worksheets are often used during field trips and utilize a learning cycle with three stages (exploration, concept introduction and concept application) to engage learners in the learning activities of observation and exploration. However, traditional paper worksheets do not provide multimedia and interactive presentations with physical objects,…

Sulistyo, Wahyu Djoko; Suprapta, Blassius; Nafiah, Ulfatun; Wijaya, Daya Negeri; Wicaksana, Hendika – Anatolian Journal of Education, 2022
Technology in learning has a very important role. The history learning process will take place effectively with the use of technology. The limitation of learning resources in prehistoric learning is a problem that must be solved. This is the reason for developing a learning model based on roaming historical sites virtually, without having to go…

Zhao, Zeyan; Zhao, Bo; Ji, Zhongtao; Liang, Zhengyu – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2022
The application of the metaverse provides a new perspective for educational innovation and talent training in the new century. By creating multi-channel perceptions such as sight, hearing, and touch through the VR/AR/MR immersive environment, the study found that learners' emotional engagement and cognitive level can be effectively improved in the…

Hajian, Shiva; Jain, Misha; Liu, Arita L.; Obaid, Teeba; Fukuda, Mari; Winne, Philip H.; Nesbit, John C. – European Journal of Educational Research, 2021
We investigated the effects of just-in-time guidance at various stages of inquiry learning by novice learners. Thirteen participants, randomly assigned to an intervention (n = 8) or control (n = 5) group, were observed as they learned about DC electric circuits using a web-based simulation. Just-in-time instructional prompts to observe, predict,…

Kaimal, Girija; Carroll-Haskins, Katrina; Berberian, Marygrace; Dougherty, Abby; Carlton, Natalie; Ramakrishnan, Arun – Art Therapy: Journal of the American Art Therapy Association, 2020
Virtual reality (VR) therapies have been used in health and mental health care settings. The applicability of VR expressive tools has not yet been examined adequately in the creative arts therapies. This pilot qualitative study reports on 17 participants' experiences with VR art-making tools to determine its relevance to art therapy practice and…

Capelo, Carlos; Pereira, Renato – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2021
Simulation-based learning environments have been proposed by researchers, as educational tools to support learning in complex business systems. However, studies have evidenced that subjects may nevertheless have great difficulty understanding and managing dynamic systems. Previous research has revealed positive learning and performance effects of…

Bakri, Fauzi; Permana, Handjoko; Wulandari, Suci; Muliyati, Dewi – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2020
Practicum based learning is required to provide opportunities for students in finding and applying concepts by observation. Student worksheets with a discovery learning model and equipped with AR video are needed as a learning tool, so students will be able to have good work in the laboratory and implementation of the practicum is effective. This…
