Inquiry learning and SimQuest LWT Workshop December 3rd Jan van der Meij University of Twente Faculty of Behavioral Sciences Department of Instructional Technology

Overview December 3rd I will give an introduction to inquiry learning I will show examples of SimQuest simulations You will work with two simulations (as students) We will discuss your findings Lunch break I will give an introduction on the design of SimQuest simulations You will start building a simulation model in SimQuest

Overview December 4th I will discuss the kinds of support to give when using simulations We will discuss how simulations can be used in the classroom I will give a demonstration of designing a SimQuest simulation You will continue building your own simulation Lunch break I will give a demonstration of specific SimQuest features You will present the simulations

Inquiry learning The learner is in control working like a scientist building his/her own knowledge Key characteristics Exploration Asking questions Making discoveries Searching for new understandings

Inquiry based learning environments Conceptual simulations Underlying model Learners have to explore the model by Manipulating input variables Observing output variables

Inquiry based learning environment

Inquiry learning processes Transformative processes Orientation Hypothesis generation Experiment design Data interpretation Evaluation Regulative processes Planning Monitoring

Problems with inquiry learning Hypothesis generation Design of experiments Interpretation of data Regulation Variables and/or relations not available Fear of rejection

Problems with inquiry learning Hypothesis generation Design of experiments Interpretation of data Regulation Inconclusive experiments Inefficient experiments Confirmation bias Engineering approach

Problems with inquiry learning Hypothesis generation Design of experiments Interpretation of data Regulation Misencodings Graph interpretation

Problems with inquiry learning Hypothesis generation Design of experiments Interpretation of data Regulation Absence of planning Poor monitoring Floundering

Decision points Orientation Hypothesis Planning Experiment Monitoring Which variables? Orientation Which hypothesis? Hypothesis What next? Planning Experiment Which variables, Which values What results? What was done? Monitoring Conclusion Which conclusion? Evaluation What was learned?

Do it yourself Simulation without support Simulation with support Braking with a scooter (stripped) 10 minutes Simulation with support Moments_1_LWT 15 minutes

Your findings...

Instructional support Transformative processes Hypothesis tools Experiment hints Give extra domain information Regulative processes Model progression Planning support Monitoring support Structure the learning process Cognitive tools

...we will look at instructional support Tomorrow... ...we will look at instructional support

Lunch break

Authoring SimQuest simulations

Elements in SimQuest simulations Rules for simulation: F = k * x a = F/m dv/dt = a dx/dt = v One for each level of model progression Simulation models Learner interface Instructional measures Instructional control

What do authors want? No programming: Flexibility in the process Libraries of building blocks (templates) Easy editing (drag and drop) Flexibility in the process Reuse of material Possibility to include existing simulations Create applications in their own language

Basic authoring cycle Select a template Edit the object Integrate it SimQuest offers a library with: simulation models instructional measures interface elements tests en test items Each template owns an editor: modeling and simulation tool interface builder editors for instructional measures Simulation context automates integration with: simulation model simulation interfaces Manual ordering of instructional measures

The SimQuest authoring environment Library Elements Open editor Select from the library Application under development Drag to application

Basic architecture Instructional Measures Learner Interface Simulation Context model Instructional Measures Learner Interface This architecture is duplicated for each model In this way Model progression is implemented Add the supportive interaction with the learner: assignments explanations monitoring tool … Contains the actual model internal model equations or blocks external program Contains information on the simulation model: Variable names Variable types Actions Guide the interaction of the learner with the simulation: buttons graphs animations ...

Tomorrow December 4th I will discuss the kinds of support to give when using simulations We will discuss how simulations can be used in the classroom I will give a demonstration of designing a SimQuest simulation You will continue building your own simulation Lunch break I will give a demonstration of specific SimQuest features You will present the simulations

See you tomorrow 
