Valentine, Andrew; Van der Veen, Tom; Kenworthy, Patrick; Hassan, Ghulam Mubashar; Guzzomi, Andrew; Khan, R. Nazim; Male, Sally A. – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
A barrier to using head mounted display (HMD) virtual reality (VR) in education is access to hardware for large classes. This paper compares students' learning when engaging with an HMD VR simulation as the operator and as the observer, to evaluate whether benefits of HMD VR can be achieved without requiring all students to operate the equipment.…

García, Isaías; Benavides, Carmen; Alaiz, Héctor; Alonso, Angel – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2013
This paper describes research on the use of knowledge models (ontologies) for building computer-aided educational software in the field of control engineering. Ontologies are able to represent in the computer a very rich conceptual model of a given domain. This model can be used later for a number of purposes in different software applications. In…

Ringwood, John V. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2013
The benefit of external, often industry-based, speakers for a seminar series associated with both undergraduate and graduate programmes is relatively unchallenged. However, the means by which such a seminar series can be encapsulated within a structured learning module, and the appropriate design of an accompanying assessment methodology, is not…
