Visualization of quantum phenomena
(University of Cyprus, 2007)
Many abstract phenomena are, by their nature, "unseeable". What then does it mean to visualize quantum phenomena such as Compton Scattering, Alpha and Beta Decay, or collisional de-excitation? Perhaps more importantly, how ...
Simulations, applets and learning in schools
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
This paper reviews the problem of establishing learning effects with computer simulation packages in science teaching. It is stated that evidence is accumulating about the effects of simulations in a laboratory environment ...
Computer-based antenna education at the Technological educational institute of crete
(University of Cyprus, 2007)
In the past most electronic engineering students tended to have repulsion against subjects related to microwaves, electromagnetics and antennas, especially due to their abstract, theoretically demanding, and complex ...
Exploring the nardoo –designing simulations that support improved learning outcomes for students studying issues of management of a water catchment
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Whole catchment management of water resources is a complex process requiring students to develop an understanding of systems and processes which operate at over extended timeframes at both a macro and micro environmental ...
Information technology for understanding Science (it for us)
(University of Cyprus, 2007)
The principal aim of the IT for US Project is to present teachers with a vision for the use of ICT in science teaching which exploits the qualities of software tools for developing conceptual understanding of scientific ...
Difficulties in representing microscopic phenomena on the internet: the case of brownian motion
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
Brownian Motion is the motion during which the particles suspended in a fluid move in a random way in all directions. Randomness is a key concept in understanding the phenomenon. Also, because it refers to molecular motion, ...
Animation Models In E-Learning Of Science
(University of Zilina, 2005)
The article deals with the simulation models in e-learning applications which are the basis of controlled animation. Visualization of simulation experiments with the computer has a great significance in teaching-learning ...
Rcos.java: a simulated operating system with animations
(Pedagogical Faculty of University of Ostrava, 2001)
RCOS.java (Ron Chernich's Operating System) is a Java-based, simulated operating system designed to address student difficulties in understanding operating systems concepts. This paper describes the rationale, design, ...
Visualization in chemical education
(University of Zilina, 2005)
In this present study, we investigated the capabilities of computer-based construction tool Construtor that allowed students to build virtual molecular models and view multiple chemical representations using computational ...
Regrex: a java-based package for teaching and active learning in regression
(Department of Educational Sciences, University of Cyprus, 2003)
REGREX is a software system designed to improve teaching and learning some concepts in regression. Even though there is a lot of commercial statistical software we have chosen to develop this computerized package, in order ...
