Scaffolding in Introductory Engineering Courses
In the past ten years, engineering classrooms have seen an exponential growth in the use of technology, more than during any other previous decade. Unprecedented advancements, such as the advent of innovative gadgets and fundamental instructional alterations in engineering classrooms, have introduced changes in both teaching and learning. Student learning in introductory, fundamental engineerin...
متن کاملUnderstanding Student Answers In Introductory Physics Courses
Many assigned problems in introductory physics courses require the student to formulate a system of algebraic equations that describe a physical situation. An Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) designed to help must be able to identify which physical quantity each student variable represents, and which fundamental laws each of her equations incorporates. Many ITS’s predefine the variables ([4,2]...
متن کاملIntroductory quantum physics courses using a LabVIEW multimedia module
We present the development of a LabVIEW multimedia module for introductory Quantum Physics courses and our experience in the use of this application as an educational tool in learning methodologies. The program solves the Time Dependent Schrödinger Equation for arbitrary potentials. We describe the numerical method used for solving this equation, as well as some mathematical tools employed to r...
متن کاملEffectiveness of problem-based learning in introductory business courses
Problem-based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach that provides learners with opportunities to identify solutions to ill-structured, real-world problems. Previous research provides evidence to support claims about the positive effects of PBL on cognitive skill development and knowledge retention. This study contributes to existing literature by exploring the influence of PBL on affectiv...
