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,…

Holden, Constance – Science, 1985
The National Academy of Sciences suggests models for biomedical research which include a biology-wide information system with computerized database accessible from a multitude of dimensions. Links could help discover whether toxic chemicals have effects similar to hormones. Commonalities from molecules to ecosystems might restructure available…

Lutterschmidt, William I.; Schaefer, Jacob F. – Journal of Biological Education, 1997
Discusses a computer simulation designed as an educational tool for students to observe predator-prey oscillations and experimentally investigate how changes in life histories affect predator and prey densities. Provides hands-on interaction with such theories and with mathematical models. Available to any instructor for curriculum use. (AIM)

Wallick, Lorna – Journal of Environmental Education, 1982
Interpretive Structure Modeling (ISM) helps learners integrate their knowledge of our environment. Demonstrated that educators, including two high school biology teachers, could learn ISM and conduct modeling sessions. Includes discussion of models, modeling building, types of models, modeling building and environmental education, and models and…
