Instructional support is fundamental to successful implementation of Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) in various educational settings. Although research indicates that instructional support can lead to learning gain and achievement of inquiry strategies, it does not explain why the same level of guidance for students with relatively the same level of…

Adams, Wendy K.; Reid, Sam; LeMaster, Ron; McKagan, Sarah B.; Perkins, Katherine K.; Dubson, Michael; Wieman, Carl E. – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2008
Interactive computer simulations with complex representations and sophisticated graphics are a relatively new addition to the classroom, and research in this area is limited. We have conducted over 275 individual student interviews during which the students described what they were thinking as they interacted with simulations. These interviews…

Francis, Alexandre; Couture, Marc – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2003
Several studies have examined realism and instructional effectiveness of physical simulations. However, very few have touched on the question of their credibility or verisimilitude, from the user's point of view. This article presents an empirical exploratory study which investigated the perceptions of potential users of a simulation-based virtual…
