Federico De Lorenzis; Alessandro Visconti; Simone Restivo; Francesca Mazzini; Serena Esposito; Silvia Fraterrigo Garofalo; Luca Marmo; Debora Fino; Fabrizio Lamberti – Smart Learning Environments, 2024
The use of Virtual Reality (VR) in education is getting more and more common, especially when hands-on learning experiences have to be delivered. With VR it becomes possible, e.g., to simulate dangerous or costly procedures that could hardly be implemented in real settings. However, engaging large classes in immersive laboratory activities may be…

Maxwell, Katia; Pittman, Shannon; Hester, Leigh; Miller-Curtis, Vanessa; Roberts, Kim; Smith, Derrek – New Directions for Teaching and Learning, 2022
Higher education today is no longer what it once was. Once upon a time, students only had the option to attend classes in person. The first shift from this format happened when students began taking classes through correspondence, where materials were physically mailed out. Later, as technology increased, a new format led to students being able to…

Yishen Song; Liming Guo; Qinhua Zheng – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Scientific inquiry ability is closely related to the process of hands-on inquiry practice. However, its assessment is often separated from this practice due to the limitation of technical basis and labor cost. The development of multimodal data analysis provides a new opportunity to realize automated assessment based on hands-on practice.…

Anazco, Mayari I. Serrano – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Presently, it is possible to use virtual learning environments for simulating abstract and/or complex scientific concepts. Multimodal Virtual Learning Environments use multiple sensory stimuli, including haptic feedback, in the representation of concepts. Past research on the utilization of haptics for learning has shown inconsistent results when…
