Using Assignments in a VB.Net Class to Create Simulations for Use by Teachers
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2010:1
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2010:1
The authors discuss the use of VB.Net as an authoring tool to create a dice throwing simulation for use by teachers. VB.Net is used to produce a small simulation program so users can conduct experiments that they would not be able to do in reality....
Generating Realistic Data for an Educational Simulation
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2012:1
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2012:1
Generating reasonable example data is a non-trivial task, and generating example data that can be used for a successful educational simulation demonstration is significantly harder. This paper explores the process and presents a few guidelines for...
Developing Future Educational Technology Faculty: Creating an Effective Model
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2010:1

Abstract: The recent technological strides in building sate of the art internet infrastructures and creating very sophisticated web development platforms have made today’s online learning environments very rich with multimedia educational resources...
Using Interactive Simulations in an E-learning Context: A Case Study
World Conference on E-Learning in Corporate, Government, Healthcare, and Higher Education(ELEARN)2008:1
World Conference on E-Learning in Corporate, Government, Healthcare, and Higher Education(ELEARN)2008:1
Abstract: The authors discuss the use of VB.Net as an authoring tool to create simulations for a web-supplemented class in statistics. VB.Net is used to produce small simulation programs so users can conduct experiments that they would not be able...
Project Lead The Way: Examining Teachers’ Perceptions and Interactions of a Pre-Engineering Curriculum with Middle & High School Students
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2005:1
Society for Information Technology & Teacher Education International Conference(SITE)2005:1
This paper presents a brief overview of how Project Lead The Way pre-engineering curriculum is implemented in middle and high school classrooms across the United States. Studies have been conducted that examine the logistics of the Project Lead The...
Simulated Learning for Clinical Skill Acquisition and Retention:
World Conference on Educational Multimedia, Hypermedia and Telecommunications(EDMEDIA)2008:1
World Conference on Educational Multimedia, Hypermedia and Telecommunications(EDMEDIA)2008:1
This paper reports on a research project conducted at the Advanced Clinical Skills Centre, University of Auckland, to determine whether the provision of a carefully engineered integrated virtual reality simulator for male and female urinary catheter ...
Evaluating Gaze-Based Interface Tools to Facilitate Point-and-Select Tasks with Small Targets
Behaviour & Information Technology (ISSN-0144-929X) 30:6
Behaviour & Information Technology (ISSN-0144-929X) 30:6
Gaze interaction affords hands-free control of computers. Pointing to and selecting small targets using gaze alone is difficult because of the limited accuracy of gaze pointing. This is the first experimental comparison of gaze-based interface tools ...
Experiences Obtained with Integration of Student Response Systems for iPod Touch and iPhone into e-Learning Environments
