Line Have Musaeus; Deborah Tatar; Peter Musaeus – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
Computational modelling is widely used in biological science. Therefore, biology students need to learn computational modelling. However, there is a lack of evidence about how to teach computational modelling in biology and what the effects are on student learning. The purpose of this intervention-control study was to investigate how knowledge in…

Nuno Verdelho Trindade; Lidia Custodio; Alfredo Ferreira; Joao Madeiras Pereira – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Ray tracing is a computer graphics technique used to produce realistic visuals by physically simulating the behavior of light. Although this technique can be described straightforwardly, fully comprehending it might be challenging. It is typically taught in the classroom using the 2-D formats, such as paper or a blackboard. We propose using…

Pham Sy Nam; Le Hong Thai; Zsolt Lavicza; Angelika Schmid; Tony Houghton – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
In the 11th-grade Vietnamese Mathematics Curriculum, students learn about parallel relations between planes in space. This is cognitively challenging for many students. Studies have shown difficulties relating to limited spatial imagination and drawing representations. The teacher's approach also causes difficulties for some students; for example,…

Aakash Kumar – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Many efforts to reform science educational standards and structure have placed an emphasis on directing learners to communicate about concepts using external representations (ERs). Techniques to develop competencies with ERs often ask learners to develop understanding outside of a physical context while concurrently making connections back to the…
