Seok-Hyun Ga; Changmi Park; Hyun-Jung Cha; Chan-Jong Kim – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Data collection is crucial in securing evidence to support students' arguments during scientific inquiries. However, due to the high costs associated with equipping schools with various measurement devices, students are limited in the scope of their scientific inquiry. Arduino can be proposed as a solution to the lack of measurement devices in…

Tekerek, Mehmet; Tekerek, Adem; Ercan, Orhan – Online Submission, 2012
The widespread use of internet implies the idea that it can also be more widely used for educational purposes. In this respect, since physics teachers have a very important function in education, to determine physics teachers' attitudes towards internet use is also important. In the literature it is possible to see many studies on teacher…

Seery, Michael K. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2012
This article summarises the author's experiences in running a module "Computers for Chemistry" entirely online for the past four years. The module, previously taught in a face-to-face environment, was reconfigured for teaching in an online environment. The rationale for moving online along with the design, implementation and evaluation of the…

Charles, Karen; Rice, Olivia – Science Educator, 2012
The term "open educational resources" (OERs) was first coined by UNESCO in 2005 and refers to "teaching, learning or research materials that are in the public domain or released with an intellectual property license that allows for free use, adaptation, and/or distribution." OERs offer educators what might be termed "value neutral" online…

Guzey, Siddika Selcen – ProQuest LLC, 2010
Technology has become a vital part of our professional and personal lives. Today we cannot imagine living without many technological tools such as computers. For the last two decades technology has become inseparable from several areas, such as science. However, it has not been fully integrated into the field of education. The integration of…

Trawick, Matthew L. – Physics Teacher, 2010
Physics teachers are most effective when their students are active learners who think and participate in every class. This extends beyond the classroom too: ideally, students would tackle challenging questions and exercises after every class--not just before the exam or the night before the weekly homework is due. Just-in-Time-Teaching was…
