Direct linkHutchins, Nicole M.; Biswas, Gautam; Zhang, Ningyu; Snyder, Caitlin; Lédeczi, Ákos; Maróti, Miklós – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2020
Driven by our technologically advanced workplaces and the surge in demand for proficiency in the computing disciplines, it is becoming imperative to provide computational thinking (CT) opportunities to all students. One approach for making computing accessible and relevant to learning and problem-solving in K-12 environments is to integrate it…

Johnson, Hailey A.; Adams, Peter N.; Antonenko, Pavlo D. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2022
The vast extent to which quantitative prerequisites vary among post-secondary geoscience programs often presents a challenge for educators and students alike in courses for which math and physics are foundational. This study discusses the design of GEOAppS, a suite of educational numerical models, and its application toward lowering the…

Peer reviewedRamananantoandro, Ramanantsoa – Journal of Geological Education, 1988
Presented is a description of a BASIC program to be used on an IBM microcomputer for calculating and plotting synthetic seismic-reflection traces for multilayered earth models. Discusses finding raypaths for given source-receiver offsets using the "shooting method" and calculating the corresponding travel times. (Author/CW)

BURKMAN, ERNEST; MARSHALL, J. STANLEY – 1966
PRESENTED IS AN EXPLANATION OF WHY CURRICULUM REVISION IN THE SCIENCES IS NECESSARY AND CHANGES THAT HAVE RESULTED IN BIOLOGY, CHEMISTRY, PHYSICS, AND EARTH SCIENCE EDUCATION. ALSO DISCUSSED ARE CHANGES IN TEACHER EDUCATION. SEVERAL PERTINENT QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW SCIENCE PROGRAMS ARE RAISED. SOME OF THE TOPICS DISCUSSED ARE--(1) THE BASES FOR…

Smith, Carol; And Others – 1987
Because density is unobservable and must be inferred from knowledge about weight and size, it is a difficult concept to teach and learn. Even after traditional instruction, many students still have an undifferentiated concept that mixes characteristics of both weight and density. In this study, researchers tested the effectiveness of a unit they…

Wiser, Marianne – 1986
Two classroom studies, one conducted in the spring of 1985 and the second in the spring of 1986, showed that many high school students do not differentiate between heat and temperature; instead, they have a single concept that contains some of the features of heat and some of the features of temperature. Because the distinction between these two…

Smith, Carol; And Others – 1986
The concept of the density of a material has an important role in elementary and secondary school science curricula, but it is a difficult concept to grasp. This project explores why this should be and whether there are some simpler, more accessible notions which can serve as the basis for building a concept of density in students' minds during…

Smith, Carol – 1985
Density is the first intensive physical quantity students encounter that can be understood in terms of an underlying model, the particulate theory of matter. Learning about density provides students with explanations for a range of phenomena such as sinking and floating, and changes of state. Teachers report, however, that density is a difficult…

Dawson, George – 1991
As a result of declining scores, the National Science Foundation has funded numerous materials-development grants. Largest among these is the Interactive Media Science (IMS) Project at Florida State University (FSU) in Tallahassee. This project's mandate is to design, develop, and produce six level III interactive videodisc programs for middle…
