Daniel Elford; Garth A. Jones; Simon J. Lancaster – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Peer Instruction (PI), a student-centred teaching method, engages students during class through structured, frequent questioning, facilitated by classroom response systems. The central feature of PI is the ConcepTest, a question designed to help resolve student misconceptions around the subject content. Within our coordination chemistry PI…

Kozhevnikov, Michael; Gurlitt, Johannes; Kozhevnikov, Maria – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2013
The focus of the current study is to understand which unique features of an immersive virtual reality environment have the potential to improve learning relative motion concepts. Thirty-seven undergraduate students learned relative motion concepts using computer simulation either in immersive virtual environment (IVE) or non-immersive desktop…

Sheehy, N. P.; Wylie, J. W.; McGuinness, C.; Orchard, G. – Environmental Education Research, 2000
Describes the development and use of two computer simulations for investigating systems thinking and environmental problem-solving in children (n=92). Finds that older children outperformed younger children, who tended to exhibit magical thinking. Suggests that seemingly isomorphic environmental problems may not be interpreted as such by children.…

Gonzalez-Cruz, Javier; Rodriguez-Sotres, Rogelio; Rodriguez-Penagos, Mireya – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2003
Enzyme kinetics is a difficult subject for students to learn and for tutors to teach. During the practicals included in the biochemical courses at the Faculty of Chemistry of Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, we found that the students acquire good training in the calculations to obtain kinetic parameters such as K[subscript m], V[subscript…

Flick, Lawrence B. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1990
The question of how children solve force and motion problems in computer simulations without explicit knowledge of the underlying physics was investigated. Keystroke sequences made by children were saved and analyzed, and children were interviewed to understand their perception of the relationship between keyboard input and on-screen action. (CW)
