Part II: A Computationally Based Modeling System for Class Elements Using Formal Observer-Based Experimental Connections.

Peer reviewed

Stewart, Gay B.; Stewart, John C. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 1997

Extends the modeling system presented in Part I. This model is applied to two widely diverse educational processes: "Student Actions" and "Do Homework Problem." Its computational syntax imposes completeness criteria on the modeling and its uniformity. (AIM)

Part I: Toward a System of Educational Engineering for Traditional Class Elements: A Case Study in an Introductory Physics Course.

Peer reviewed

Stewart, Gay B. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 1997

Presents a system for formally characterizing elements of an introductory science class, measuring class performance based on this characterization, and modeling the value of the class based on the measurements. The main components of this modeling system include educational engineering with a formal set of practices, the use of computational…
