  1. 1. Learning in physics with simulation : Students’ needs & perceptions of the interaction with Algodoo, and learning in physics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Seyma Ikra Koyuncu; [2023]
    Keywords : computational thinking; stem; simulations; physics; modelling; digital tools; digital content; computational thinking; stem; simulering; fysik; modellering; digitalt verktyg; digitalt innehåll;

    Abstract : Initiatives to implement computational thinking and science, technology, engineering & modelling into learning processes have been taken by many authorities worldwide, and in Sweden as well. The Swedish government made changes in the high school curriculum in order to develop student’s digital competence including programming which has been in force since June 2018 (Skolverket, 2018).

  2. 2. Student-generated representations in Algodoo while solving a physics problem

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fysikundervisningens didaktik

    Author : Oskar Bengtz; [2018]
    Keywords : Algodoo; Large Touch Screen; Monkey-Hunter Problem; Algodoo; Stor Pekskärm; Apan och Jägarproblemet;

    Abstract : Fysiklärare möter ofta den svåra uppgiften att representera abstrakta, väldefinierade egenskaper hos den fysiska världen (så som krafter eller energier) för studenter som går bortom ekvationer, grafer eller diagram. I denna studie tittar jag två fall av universitetsstudenter som löser en fysikalisk uppgift, användandes det digitala programmet Algodoo på en stor pekskärm för att undersöka hur studenter naturligt använder sig av sådan teknologi för att återskapa dessa representationer själva.
