Mad City Mystery: Developing Scientific Argumentation Skills with a Place-based Augmented Reality Game on Handheld Computers (2007, background): “One might (justiﬁably) challenge this study based on what meaningful learning can be expected to happen in 1 week or even 1 month of activity (cf. Lemke, 2000).”
Inventing a “Mid Level” to Make Ends Meet: Reasoning between the Levels of Complexity (2008, background): “Some researchers (eg, Bamberger, 1996 ; Dopfer, Foster, & Potts, 2004 ; Lemke, 2001 ) have argued that such intermediate levels are important for understanding many systems.”
