Filiz Avci – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background Study: Developments in science and technology, have created a need for technology-supported learning environments. Robotics is a technology widely used in science education. Collaborative learning is one of the methods used in education based on the constructivist approach. Using robotic and cooperative learning together is a new and…

Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Chang, Shao-Chen; Song, Yanjie; Hsieh, Min-Chuan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Scholars have suggested that flipped learning can be enhanced by designing effective in-class learning activities to improve students' higher order thinking skills. Problem posing has been recognized as such a learning strategy that has great potential for improving students' higher order thinking skills. However, it has been reported as a…

Miller, B. W.; Cromley, J. G.; Newcombe, N. S. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2016
Visual representations are essential for science understanding, but many students have poor diagrammatic reasoning skills. Previous research showed that teaching high school and college students about the conventions of diagrams (COD) can improve diagrammatic reasoning. In this study, middle school science students received COD instruction…

Su, C-H.; Cheng, C-H. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2015
This paper aims to investigate how a gamified learning approach influences science learning, achievement and motivation, through a context-aware mobile learning environment, and explains the effects on motivation and student learning. A series of gamified learning activities, based on MGLS (Mobile Gamification Learning System), was developed and…

Tiberghien, A.; de Vries, E. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1997
Compares collaborative problem solving by learners sitting side-by-side with computer-mediated learning at a distance. Three aspects are studied: high school students' problem- solving strategies and interpretation of the teaching situation; their use of components of the situation; and the cognitive processes involved in understanding domain…
