PhET: Research and Development: How PhET simulations are designed, and the research process of refining the simulations to best promote learning.
PhET праводзіць даследаванні як выкарыстоўваць STRONG> інструменты кіравання STRONG> інтэрактыўнымі сімулятарамі, каб яны былі лепш зразумелымі:
- Якія характарыстыкі робяць гэтыя інструменты эфектыўнымі для навучання і чаму
- Як навучэнцы займаюцца і ўзаемадзейнічаць з гэтымі інструментамі, каб атрымаць вынік, і што ўплывае на гэты працэс
- У якім выпадку і чаму гэтыя інструменты эфектыўныя ў розных навучальных асяроддзях
Навуковыя адказы на часта задаваемыя пытанні:
Нашы прынцыпы мадэліравання:
Выкарыстанне аналогіі для тлумачэння: Навучэнцы выкарыстоўваюць аналогіі ў сімулятарах, каб зразумець сэнс незнаёмых з'яў. Прадстаўленні гуляюць ключавую ролю ў выкарыстанні аналогіі навучэнцамі.
Мадэліраванне ў якасці інструмента для змены ў класе нормы: Сімулятары фарміруюцца пад уздзеяннем зместу і гістарычных традыцый навукі, але таксама можа быць выкарыстаны для змены традыцыйных падыходаў, калі навучэнцы займаюцца ў класе.
Асаблівасці сімулятараў у тым, што яны спрыяюць навучанню і пошуку: Нашы прынцыпы праектавання вызначаюць ключавыя характарыстыкі сімулятараў, якія робяць іх прадукцыйнымі ўстройствамі для ўключэння навучэнцаў у навучальны працэс. Цяпер мы хочам вывучыць ў дэталях, як кожная асаблівасць ўплывае на вучнёўскае разуменне.
Інтэграцыя сімулятараў у выкананне дамашніх заданняў: Сімулятары маюць унікальныя асаблівасці, якія не даступныя ў большасці навучальных дапаможнікаў (інтэрактыўнасці, анімацыі, дынамічнай адваротнай сувязі, што дазваляе выкарыстоўваць іх для прадуктыўнага пошуку)
Эфектыўнасць мадэліравання хіміі: Мы толькі пачалі даследаваць вобласць, дзе і як камп'ютэрнае мадэліраванне хімічных з'яў можа стаць эфектыўным сродкам навучання.
