Žan Rode; Gregor Torkar – International Journal of Educational Methodology, 2023
The iNaturalist application has been gaining traction in both biodiversity research and education. Increasingly more research is being carried out, looking into using the iNaturalist application in biology education, to promote biodiversity and educate students about this topic. We used the PRISMA systematic literature review method to examine…

Jason L. Kester; Leslie Ann Bross – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2024
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a technology-based self-monitoring application, I-Connect, to enhance the on-task behavior of five secondary students (ages 15-16) with autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and specific learning disability during Biology instruction in a rural special education classroom. We…

Karoui, Aous; Marfisi-Schottman, Iza; George, Sébastien – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
The expansion of mobile devices (e.g. tablets, smartphones) and their educational and recreational applications have contributed to the emergence of Mobile Learning Games (MLGs). MLGs show great potential for increasing engagement, creativity and authentic learning. Yet, despite their great potential for education, the use of MLGs by teachers,…

Natale, Caio Cotta; Mello, Paula Seixas; Trivelato, Silvia Luzia Frateschi; Marzin-Janvier, Patricia; Manzoni-de-Almeida, Daniel – Higher Learning Research Communications, 2021
Objectives: To describe the implementation of a hybrid and an online active-learning-based science activity originally designed for face-to-face instruction. The goal was to verify if students used appropriate science practices while engaged in a problem solution through hybrid and fully online modalities. Epistemic practices are important markers…

Chang, Rong-Chi; Yu, Zeng-Shiang – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2018
This article aims to explore the impact of AR on the learning outcomes of college freshmen and their knowledge about the biology lab course. In a study, a basic biology lab course app was developed using AR technology. The students used this app to prepare for a basic biology lab course, and carry on self-learning without the help of instructors.…

de Oliveira, Mayara Lustosa; Galembeck, Eduardo – Journal of Biological Education, 2016
Cell biology apps were surveyed in order to identify whether there are new approaches for modelling cells allowed by the new technologies implemented in tablets and smartphones. A total of 97 apps were identified in 3 stores surveyed (Apple, Google Play and Amazon), they are presented as: education 48.4%, games 26.8% and medicine 15.4%. The apps…

Bowen, Bradley; Finch, James – Science Teacher, 2014
This article describes how one science teacher based an activity on designing smartphone apps to clearly and concisely communicate the interdependent relationships of a biological ecosystem. The teacher designed the activity to address several aspects of the latest science standards. Students needed to understand their ecosystem and synthesize new…

Zirkel, Jessica B.; Zirkel, Perry A. – Educational Technology, 1997
Reviews the limited research on computer software alternatives to actual dissection in biology instruction. Concludes that research should include larger more representative samples; higher priority on psychometrically sound instrumentation; a paper-based comparison group; a design that carefully considers attitude; and practical measures to…

Diamond, James J. – 1969
Computer assisted instruction (CAI) in Biology and Developmental Reading was administered at two junior high schools and two senior high schools in Philadelphia. The achievement of the students in CAI was compared with comparable students in traditionally instructed classes. The results of the standardized tests were equivocal. In Reading, the CAI…
