Pattarapol Yamwongsri; Hsiu-Ling Chen – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) is known to develop advanced cognitive skills, particularly in complex subjects like geography. However, integrating Spherical Video-Based Virtual Reality (SVVR) with IBL remains underexplored. This study proposed an SVVR-based IBL approach to enhance geography education for high school students in Thailand. A…

Lai, Ting-Ling; Lin, You-Sheng; Chou, Chi-Yin; Yueh, Hsiu-Ping – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an inquiry-based virtual reality (VR) science lab used in junior high school science classes. The "Scientific Investigation VR Lab" ("SIVRLAB") is designed for 9th-grade students to learn about electrochemical cells. It is situated in a guided problem-solving context, where…

Mills, Kelly; Jass Ketelhut, Diane; Gong, Xiaoyang – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2019
Immersive virtual environments (IVEs) model scientific inquiry practices and can provide rich learning experiences for students. However, the teacher is an essential component of how the students engage with the technology, as they embed the IVE into everyday teaching and learning. Ideally, classroom pedagogies would reflect the scientific…

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…

Fors, Uno G. H.; Gunning, William T. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2014
Virtual patient cases (VPs) are used for healthcare education and assessment. Most VP systems track user interactions to be used for assessment. Few studies have investigated how virtual exam cases should be scored and graded. We have applied eight different scoring models on a data set from 154 students. Issues studied included the impact of…

Beckett, Kelly L.; Shaffer, David Williamson – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2005
In this article, we present a study focused on developing students' understanding of the ecology through participation in a technology-supported urban planning simulation--specifically, 11 high school students in Madison, Wisconsin acted as urban planners to redesign a local shopping street using a Geographic Information System (GIS) model. This…
