Citations in the corpus
- A review of pedagogy related to information and communications technology (2004, background): “…computer simulations of experiments and processes incorporated as short episodes in existing curricula have been shown to enable students to perform at higher cognitive levels (Huppert et al, 1998; Cox, 2000) and to promote conceptual change (Tao & Gunstone, 1999; Jimoyiannis & Komis, 2001).”
- The potential of digital tools to enhance mathematics and science learning in secondary schools: A context-specific meta-analysis (2020, background): “Furthermore, it can help students overcome “ cognitive constraints originating from various misconceptions ” (Jimoyiannis & Komis, 2001, p. 184).”
- The Effect of Problem Based Learning (PBL) Instruction on Students' Motivation and Problem Solving Skills of Physics. (2017, background): “A major research domain in physics education is focused on the study of the effects of various types of teaching interventions aimed to help students' alternative conceptions (Jimoyiannis & Komis, 2001).”
- Designing and implementing an integrated technological pedagogical science knowledge framework for science teachers professional development (2010, background): “…arguing that they provide opportunities for active learning, enable students to perform at higher cognitive levels, support constructive learning, promote scientific inquiry and conceptual change (Jimoyiannis & Komis, 2001; Jonassen et al., 2003; de Jong & Joolingen, 1998; Webb & Cox, 2004).”
- The learning effects of computer simulations in science education (2012, background): “With regard to the cognitive domain, use of computer simulations appears to facilitate students ’ conceptual understanding (Jimoyiannis & Komis, 2001; Meir et al., 2005; Stern et al., 2008; Zacharia, 2007), requires less time (Gibbons et al., 2004), and improves the ability to predict the results…”
