Pebralia, Jesi; Amri, Iful; Rifa'i, Ahmad Imam – Physics Education, 2022
This study has proposed a simple method to show the convective heat transfer. The object in this study is an air conditioner (AC) as a simple case of convection. In addition, AC is also easy to find in the class because most classrooms in Indonesia installed AC. Usually, a visualization needs special software (i.e. MatLab or others) and good…

Jiang, Han; Iandoli, Matthew; Van Dessel, Steven; Liu, Shichao; Whitehill, Jacob – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
"Thermal comfort" (TC) -- how comfortable or satisfied a person is with the temperature of her/his surroundings -- is one of the key factors influencing the "indoor environmental quality" of schools, libraries, and offices. We conducted an experiment to explore how TC can impact students' learning. University students (n = 25)…

Katsioloudis, Petros J. – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2017
Temperature can influence thermal comfort, working performance, and social behavior. In a classroom that is slightly cool, an assumption can be made that learning could be affected in a negative way. Considering this, a quasi-experimental study was done to determine if a significant difference of effective temperature have an effect on students':…
