Hagemans, Mieke G.; van der Meij, Hans; de Jong, Ton – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2013
Students often need support to optimize their learning in inquiry learning environments. In 2 studies, we investigated the effects of adding concept-map-based support to a simulation-based inquiry environment on kinematics. The concept map displayed the main domain concepts and their relations, while dynamic color coding of the concepts displayed…

Misanchuk, Earl R.; Schwier, Richard A. – 1995
This paper summarizes the results of an analysis of literature on color use in screen design. Fundamental problems with the information base are identified as follows: (1) advise becomes obsolete as newer equipment becomes available; (2) the nature of the task used in the research is not sufficiently similar to tasks performed during teaching and…
