چکیده
Physics has an image of being both ‘difficult’ and ‘boring’. This paper describes the development of SPLAT, an enjoyable multimedia educational resource for one of the topics that learners find particularly difficult. The developer was an experienced physics teacher who had no prior experience of using multimedia authoring tools. SPLAT can be used in schools, colleges and homes to increase learners’ understanding of the fundamental concepts of projectile motion. This paper gives details of the context within which SPLAT was

متن کاملFrom linear text to hypermedia in Physics educational documents
This paper presents a discussion about how to transform Physics’ educational documents from printed-support to digital-support. We have not only looked at the technical features of a digital document, but we have also taken into account how students learn and which specificities of Physics must be faced in the process. The result is a set of transformation guidelines presented in order to impro...
