Codish, David; Rabin, Eyal; Ravid, Gilad – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
Process mining methodologies are designed to uncover underlying business processes, deviations from them, and in general, usage patterns. One of the key limitations of these methodologies is that they struggle in cases in which there is no structured process, or when a process can be performed in many ways. Learning Management Systems are a…

Chaparro-Pelaez, Julian; Iglesias-Pradas, Santiago; Pascual-Miguel, Felix J.; Hernandez-Garcia, Angel – Interactive Learning Environments, 2013
Although literature about problem based learning (PBL) is not scarce, there is little research on experiences about learning methodologies that combine PBL and the use of simulation tools. This lack of studies is even more notable in the case of engineering courses. The motivation for this study is to show how such a combination of PBL and…

Metz, Kathleen E.; Hammer, David M. – Interactive Learning Environments, 1993
Discusses the term microworld; develops a conceptual framework to analyze the sense in which the world metaphor may or may not hold; and describes a study of high school physics students working individually with the computer microworld "Elmira" that was conducted to analyze how their thinking was worldlike. (Contains 11 references.)…

Guzdial, Mark – Interactive Learning Environments, 1994
Discussion of the use of programming as a learning activity focuses on software-realized scaffolding. Emile, software that facilitates programming for modeling and simulation in physics, is described, and results of an evaluation of the use of Emile with high school students are reported. (Contains 95 references.) (LRW)

Mitchell, Christine M.; Govindaraj, T. – Interactive Learning Environments, 1990
Discusses the use of intelligent tutoring systems as opposed to traditional on-the-job training for training operators of complex dynamic systems and describes the computer architecture for a system for operators of a NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) satellite control system. An experimental evaluation with college students is…

Scardamalia, M.; And Others – Interactive Learning Environments, 1992
Presents results from elementary school classroom uses of the Computer Supported Integrated Learning Environments (CSILE) software that stores student productions, including text and graphics, in one database to which all users have simultaneous access. Educational uses, effects, and outcomes of CSILE are described; and knowledge construction is…

Schwarz, Baruch; Dreyfus, Tommy – Interactive Learning Environments, 1993
Describes a study which measured how ninth-grade students integrated information about mathematical concepts when working with Triple Representation Model software. Tables, graphs, and algebraic functions were linked, allowing students to manipulate several representations of the same concept. Examples of mathematical problems and student case…
