…in concepts such as solar house design. Simulations make these phenomena and many more available to students around the globe. Perhaps some day one of them will be inspired by…
Importance Students should engage in practices that are essential for learning science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through both inquiry and design. Innovative Technology in Science Inquiry is a scale…
…nature. We are now proud to announce our new logo, created by Derek Yesman of Daydream Design. This logo both simplifies and augments our original logo. It morphs the original…
…in classroom pilot tests, and cognitive interviews investigating basic questions about how design features influence learners’ perceptions and interactions with tabular and graphic representations of data. Modeling, Mining, and Visualizing…
“Before graduating from high school, students working individually or in teams should design and carry out at least one major investigation. They should frame the question, design the approach, estimate…
Solar engineering and building design rely on accurate prediction of solar radiation at any given location. This is a core functionality of our Energy3D CAD software. We are proud to…
…developing instruments to assess genetics content learning and motivation. Our iterative development of these instruments is based on Evidence Centered Design (ECD). ECD was developed to improve the validity of…
…effects. Capable of achieving just that, a multiphysics simulation can create a deep and wide learning space just like real experiments. For engineering design, this depth and breadth are not…
…using it to do conceptual product design). Who doesn’t like a CFD tool for dummies that can save time from the long preprocessor-solver-postprocessor cycle? Figure 1 shows a simulation that…
…which in 1997 was one of the first online high schools. VHS remains the only virtual high school that uses a cooperative design and relies entirely on school-based teachers to…
