BACKGROUND Electrochemotherapy is an effective approach in local tumour treatment employing locally applied high-voltage electric pulses in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs. In planning and performing electrochemotherapy a multidisciplinary expertise is required and collaboration, knowledge and experience exchange among the experts from different scientific fields such as medicine, biolo...

Conceptualization (AC) is a conceptually-based, analytic approach to learning. People with an orientation toward abstract conceptualization focus on logic, ideas, precision, and concepts, emphasizing thinking and analyzing ideas, and not feeling. A person with this orientation is good at systematic planning, manipulating abstract symbols, and has a scientific as opposed to an artistic approach ...

Not only in the past but even today, people proclaim that horses react only by instinct, that they are just conditioned-response animals, that they lack advanced cognitive ability, and that they have poor visual capabilities (e.g., acuity, color vision, depth perception). Until relatively recently, there was little scientific evid...

Advanced Computing for Science Education (ACSE) is a multimedia science learning environment. Lessons, called ACSE Volumes, serve as electronic laboratory units in a developmental biology course. Each ACSE Volume is focused on a single scientific research area. The centerpiece of each Volume is a simulation of a scientific process. In exposing the scientific essence of the simulation to student...

Citizen Inquiry forms a new method of informal science learning and aims to enable the engagement of citizens in online scientific investigations. Citizen Inquiry combines aspects from Citizen Science and Inquiry-based learning and is implemented through a community of practice where people having a shared interest interact and exchange knowledge and methods supported and guided by online syste...

1. Abstract Inquiry experiences can provide valuable opportunities for students to improve their understanding of both science content and scientific practices. However, the implementation of inquiry learning in classrooms presents a number of significant challenges. We have been exploring these challenges through a program of research on the use of scientific visualization technologies to supp...
