Peer reviewedNiedderer, H.; And Others – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1991
Described is how an iconic model building software can be used to help students gain a deeper qualitative conceptual understanding of physics concepts. The program, STELLA, links research about misconceptions and new teaching strategies with the use of modern information technology tools. (31 references) (KR)
