Redox titration problems are considered difficult for students to learn due to their abstract nature, the myriad amount of representations, and the mathematical competency required to learn and solve. The goal of this research project is to examine challenges students face in learning about redox titration-related problems, approaches they use in…

In honor of Jim Greer, we share our recent work--a design and development study of various learning supports embedded within the game "Physics Playground." This 2-dimensional computer game is designed to help students learn Newtonian physics and uses stealth assessment to measure, in real-time, their physics understanding. The game…

As science teachers, we often show animations and videos in class but there is the potential for students to create their own animations to represent science concepts and thus make their conceptions visible for critique and refinement. This encourages students to be active in their own learning, creating animations rather than just viewing them.…
