Firomumwe, Thomas – Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
The present study examines the implementation of GIS and RS in teaching geography in Zimbabwean secondary schools. GIS and RS were viewed as the most important achievements in secondary school education in the early part of the year 2017. It was adopted because of its ability to bring the world in the classroom. To determine the implementation of…

Baird, William H.; Padgett, Clifford W.; Secrest, Jeffery A. – Physics Education, 2015
Google Earth has made a wealth of aerial imagery available online at no cost to users. We examine some of the potential uses of that data in illustrating basic physics and astronomy, such as finding the local magnetic declination, using landmarks such as the Washington Monument and Luxor Obelisk as gnomons, and showing how airport runways get…

Runyan, Marla – Learning & Leading with Technology, 2013
Most would agree that iOS technology is downright cool. But it is more than cool for a person with a visual impairment--it is accessibility built right in.
At first glance, an iOS device, such as an iPhone or iPad, does not appear to be an appropriate tool for the blind. It has only a few physical buttons, and it seems to make sense only for…

Johnston, Jamie; Ksoll, Christopher – Stanford Center for Education Policy Analysis, 2017
In lower- and middle-income countries, including Ghana, students in rural areas dramatically underperform their urban peers. Rural schools struggle to attract and retain professionally trained teachers (GES 2012; World Bank 2012). We explore one potential solution to the problem of teacher recruitment: distance instruction. Through a cluster…

Monet, Julie; Greene, Todd – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2012
Students in an introductory physical geology course often have difficulty making connections between basic course topics and assembling key concepts (beyond textbook examples) to interpret how geologic processes shape the characteristics of the local and regional natural environment. As an approach to address these issues, we designed and…
