Zhong, Baichang; Zheng, Jijun; Zhan, Zehui – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study examined the effects of virtual and physical robots (VPR) using in different learning stages (simple session/complex session) in a robotics programming course. A quasi-experimental design was implemented with 84 junior high school students from two classes. One class with 44 students used combination of VPR strategy for learning,…

Chou, Yi-Shiuan; Hou, Huei-Tse; Chang, Kuo-En; Su, Chien-Lun – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study proposed a cognitive-based game mechanism based on the revised Bloom's taxonomy of cognitive processing dimensions. Moreover, a mobile Chinese history educational game, Void Broken: The Qing Dynasty, was developed based on the cognitive-based game mechanism to promote learners' cognitive thinking in history learning. This empirical…

Liu, Yu-Hsin; Yu, Fu-Yun – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
An online learning system in support of active learning and formative evaluation via a teaching-by-questioning strategy in classrooms was developed. Following a design-based research paradigm, the theoretical base, design principles, and associated spaces for the system were explicated. Its learning potential in terms of perceived usefulness, ease…

Lai, Chiu-Lin; Hwang, Gwo-Jen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2015
In this study, a spreadsheet-based visualized Mindtool was developed for improving students' learning performance when finding relationships between numerical variables by engaging them in reasoning and decision-making activities. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, an experiment was conducted on the "phenomena of climate…

Jonassen, David; Strobel, Johannes; Gottdenker, Joshua – Interactive Learning Environments, 2005
Conceptual change is a popular, contemporary conception of meaningful learning. Conceptual change describes changes in conceptual frameworks (mental models or personal theories) that learners construct to comprehend phenomena. Different theories of conceptual change describe the reorganization of conceptual frameworks that results from different…
