While collaborative learning is common in schools, most research has focused on small group collaborative processes, in one shot practice. In order to investigate the nature and the mechanism of collaborative learning in a larger group, this paper presents analysis of a classroom discussion in which 21 third-graders (8to 9-year-old students) collaboratively discussed predictions about the resul...

While students may find spline interpolation quite digestible, based on their familiarity with continuity of a function and its derivatives, some inherent value be missed when only see it applied to standard data exercises. In this paper, we offer alternatives where can qualitatively quantitatively witness the resulting dynamical differences objects are driven through fluid using different meth...

Interaction, such as being able to ask questions, is an important part in lectures. Both educators and students can benefit from software support in very large lectures. As a cost-effective and widely usable solution, we have investigated interaction based on the mobile phones owned by most students. After presenting design criteria, we discuss a concrete prototype for mobile phone-based intera...

This study examines the peer interaction in a small group work task of a pre-intermediate level Japanese language classroom at an Australian university. Based on Sociocultural Theory (e.g. Vygotsky, 1978), the study explores the opportunities for learning that occur during the pair/group work. Data include video-recordings of learners engaging in a group work task, interviews incorporating retr...

We have developed and deployed a Web-based wireless classroom interaction system in a large-enrollment introductory physics lecture class that uses HP handheld computers (PDAs) to facilitate real-time two-way student interaction with the instructor. Our system is ahead of other “clicker” based systems that are primarily limited to multiple-choice responses. Our system allows for a variety of qu...
