Investigations of a Complex, Realistic Task: Intentional, Unsystematic, and Exhaustive Experimenters
Direct linkMcElhaney, Kevin W.; Linn, Marcia C. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2011
This study examines how students' experimentation with a virtual environment contributes to their understanding of a complex, realistic inquiry problem. We designed a week-long, technology-enhanced inquiry unit on car collisions. The unit uses new technologies to log students' experimentation choices. Physics students (n = 148) in six diverse high…

Peer reviewedLinn, Marcia C.; Eylon, Bat-Sheva – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2000
Contrasts spontaneous and reflective knowledge integration instruction delivered using a computer learning environment to enhance understanding of displaced volume. Distinguishes the impact of instruction on students who believed scientific phenomena are governed by principles (cohesive beliefs) versus students who believed that science is a…
