Using "Thinking Tags" to improve understanding in science: a genetics simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, small wearable microprocessor-driven GroupWear tags are used in a science classroom in order to investigate the effects on the nature and quality of discourse among students. The Thinking Tags are preprogrammed to run a genetics simulation for the purpose of exploring concepts related to inheritance, such as genotype, phenotype, probability and frequency. Preliminary data suggest that Thinking Tags provide an effective method of instruction that can be used to address misconceptions in science that persist despite traditional pedagogical interventions.
