One Approach to Finding Evidence for the Effectiveness of Scientific Visualisations in High School Physics and Chemistry Education
World Conference on Educational Multimedia, Hypermedia and Telecommunications(EDMEDIA)2009:1
Enormous amounts of money and energy are being devoted to the development, use and organisation of computer-based scientific visualisations (e.g. animations and simulations) in science education. It seems plausible that visualisations that enable...
