Thomas S. Muenz; Steffen Schaal; Jorge Groß; Jürgen Paul – Science Education International, 2023
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) has become an essential issue for schools facing major challenges such as bridging the knowledge-action-gap. Interactive simulations could help to focus on action-oriented learning. As part of a design-based research (DBR) process, we investigated the learning potential of game elements within a digital…

de Brito, Luciana Pereira; Almeida, Leandro Silva; Osório, António José – International Journal of Technology in Teaching and Learning, 2021
Digital simulators have an interesting potential to explain the relationships between two or more variables in a system, facilitating the activation of learning processes and favoring the occurrence of meaningful learning with positive impact on academic performance. To study the impact of the use of digital simulation on learning and academic…

Rita Rodrigues; João Ferreira-Santos; Julia Draghi; Margarida M. Marques; Lúcia Pombo – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2024
To drive effective change towards sustainable development, several courses of action have been devised, and education was pointed as a way to attain this goal. Recognizing the impact of learning in context, it is essential to develop innovative educational proposals that bring schools into other social contexts. This study aims to present, albeit…

Megan Tyson – Issues and Trends in Learning Technologies, 2021
The present study investigated the impact teaching academic vocabulary through an augmented reality (AR) approach had on acquisition and retention as compared to using a more traditional flash card based approach. 29 high school students ranging from 9th to 11th grade followed the pattern of a 10 word vocabulary pre-test, being taught those words…

Buliali, Joko Lianto; Andriyani; Pramudya, Yudhiakto – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2022
The problem in studying geometry for students with normal hearing and hearing impairment is that when studying geometry, it does not only require analytical presentations but also visual presentations related to spatial visualization abilities. This problem is getting worse during the pandemic, in which teaching and learning had to be done online.…

Pombo, Lúcia; Marques, Margarida M. – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2019
Mobile devices are being intensively used by the Portuguese youth in their daily life, but not in school activities. Despite this gap, research shows that technology can promote student learning in non-high education contexts. This paper comprises a survey study where mobile learning is analyzed through the eyes of 244 students attending the 2nd…

Tsai, Fu-Hsing – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2018
This study developed a computer-simulated science inquiry environment, called the Science Detective Squad, to engage students in investigating an electricity problem that may happen in daily life. The environment combined the simulation of scientific instruments and a virtual environment, including gamified elements, such as points and a story for…

Ibáñez, María-Blanca; Di-Serio, Ángela; Villarán-Molina, Diego; Delgado-Kloos, Carlos – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2015
This paper reports empirical evidence on having students use AR-SaBEr, a simulation tool based on augmented reality (AR), to discover the basic principles of electricity through a series of experiments. AR-SaBEr was enhanced with knowledge-based support and inquiry-based scaffolding mechanisms, which proved useful for discovery learning in…
