Webb, Mary; Tracey, Megan; Harwin, William; Tokatli, Ozan; Hwang, Faustina; Johnson, Ros; Barrett, Natasha; Jones, Chris – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This paper reports on a study which designed and developed a multi-fingered haptic interface in conjunction with a three-dimensional (3D) virtual model of a section of the cell membrane in order to enable students to work collaboratively to learn cell biology. Furthermore, the study investigated whether the addition of haptic feedback to the 3D…
