Collaborative Use Design of Interactive Simulations - Repenning, Ioannidou, Phillips   (Correct)

....activities. Interactive simulations are gaining momentum in education. A recent and highly publicized ETS study [Wenglinsky 1998] concluded that drill and practice technology has turned out to be largely ineffective, and that simulation technology based on constructivist learning principles [Yager 1995] provides measurable learning advantages. In a report [Shaw 1997] on educational technology to the President of the USA, a committee of science advisors presented the most promising constructivist applications of technology, with simulations on top of the list. The time is ripe to not only ....

....elementary school students to professionals. These simulations were all created with the Visual AgenTalk language (VAT) employed by the AgentSheets system (Repenning Ambach, 1996) Elementary Schools: EcoWorlds Current reform efforts in science education emphasize constructivist pedagogies (Yager, 1995) approaches that place students at the center of the sense making process and suggest that students learn by actively building their own understanding of a topic. One promising approach to meaningful learning and robust understanding of science centers on the creation and use of computer ....
