Keller, Thomas; Glauser, Philipp; Ebert, Nico; Brucker-Kley, Elke – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
This paper examines the use of Virtual Reality (VR) at Swiss secondary schools. Despite many years of research, no well-founded data are available on the effects of the technology on children's learning success. It is assumed that VR is compatible with the learning theory of constructivism through the possibility of immersion, interaction, 3D…

Thompson, Kate; Reimann, Peter – Computers & Education, 2010
A classification system that was developed for the use of agent-based models was applied to strategies used by school-aged students to interrogate an agent-based model and a system dynamics model. These were compared, and relationships between learning outcomes and the strategies used were also analysed. It was found that the classification system…
