Internet Scout Project
The demonstrations given on this Web site are a collection of Java applets and RealAudio clips that explain many underlying concepts of math and engineering. They were developed at John Hopkins University for a project that attempts to use the technology of the World Wide Web in engineering education. Students, under the supervision of electrical and computer engineering professor Dr. Rugh, have prepared many of the demonstrations. The moving graphics help illustrate such difficult topics as con
Internet Scout Project
Developed by online museum educators, Pieces of Science is described as "an online gallery of sixteen educational resources related to a collection of historical science objects." The sixteen subjects are organized by grade level and include such topics as lighting rods, Apollo 8, a lunar module, Priestley�s physics project, and penicillin. Each page contains a variety of resources, but the lighting rod page, for example, explains the history of how Benjamin Franklin used lighting rods to s
Women in World History
Women in World History is an online curriculum resource center designed to help high school and college world history teachers and students find and analyze online primary sources on women in world history. Materials encourage teachers to integrate recent scholarship and give students a more sophisticated framework for understanding global women’s history. Women in World History reflects three approaches central to current scholarship in world history and the history of women: an emphasis on
Internet Scout Project
The University of Wisconsin Extension provides "information about water quality and natural resources education programs in Wisconsin." Users can find out about monitoring the water quality of streams, river cleanups, and other volunteer projects. Teachers can learn how to educate their students about runoff pollution through the construction of a watershed model. The website presents numerous water related initiatives including the Multi-Agency Land and Water Education Grant Program, Give Water

Internet Scout Project
Antarctic monthly mean sea surface temperature and pressure data are accessible online from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) of Oak Ridge, TN. Compiled by the Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia, UK, this data is an update of temperature. and pressure data collected between 1957-1990 from 29 stations over Antarctica. CDIAC's Web page of this climatic research project displays a map of sampling localities and a table of contents, guiding readers to figure
Collaborate and Create Inservice
The Collaborate and Create learning project is an online resource created to assist in the in-service of educators seeking to integrate technology into their classroom curriculum. This resource will assist in the development of learning groups organized around real problems of practice that provide access to outside resources and expertise.
The Storyboard Artwork Project
In this project, you create educational materials for schools. If you like to draw human figures or if you have Poser or DAZ Studio, you can join. The artwork that you will create in this project turns Tux Paint into a storyboarding program. The artwork is a human figure viewed from many angles. Once you have drawn the artwork, you mask the figures so they can be used as "stamps" in Tux Paint for kids to create storyboards for motion pictures. These special stamps allow Tux Paint to work like a
Promoting Effective Use of Open Educational Technology
A prominent cross-institutional open source educational technology development project, shares the essence of their ongoing local efforts by implementing the Open Source Portfolio (OSP).
A Gallery of Institutional Projects
This pilot effort between the two foundations is designed to help institutions and programs create succinct project portals that provide quick access to a project overview and selected instruments, materials, data and evidence related to their work.

La Boîte Noire. Conception et expérimentation pédagogique de simulations informatiques adisciplin
Nous menons depuis trois ans, dans un cours dépistémologie en formation des maîtres, une expérience pédagogique inédite : lutilisation, en contexte dapprentissage ouvert, dune simulation informatique que nous avons conçue et dont nous avons développé diverses versions de plus en plus adisciplinaires. Après avoir présenté les origines de la simulation et les caractéristiques de ses versions successives, nous décrivons la formule pédagogique que nous avons proposée et raffi
Navigation interactive pour l'apprentissage en linguistique textuelle
Cet article présente un langage de modélisation des connaissances de visualisation et de navigation et leur implémentation dans une plate-forme logicielle NaviTexte. Nous montrons que cette implémentation nécessite de disposer d' un modèle de texte que nous décrivons. Une application à la linguistique textuelle qui permette à un étudiant de voir et de naviguer dans un texte entre des unités textuelles qui en assurent la cohérence est ensuite présentée.,Preprint
Les avis individuels sont-ils pris en compte lors d'une activité collaborative à distance ? Quels
Cet article a pour objectif de mettre en évidence de quelle manière les avis individuels sont pris en considération lors d'une activité collaborative. Nous nous attacherons à vérifier tout d'abord dans quelle mesure les avis individuels des 96 sujets de notre échantillon se modifient ou non selon la modalité de travail collaboratif (modalités de constitution de la paire, consignes collaboratives visant ou non au consensus) à laquelle ils sont confrontés (question de recherche 1).

Patrons d'exercices pour Aplusix Une étape du développement de l'EIAH occasion d'un travail entre
Au cours du développement de l'EIAH APLUSIX, il y a eu de nombreuses occasions d'un travail partagé entre informaticiens et didacticiens. Quelques-unes sont décrites succinctement. Lors de la mise en place de patrons d'exercices et d'une carte de tests, une coopération plus approfondie a eu lieu, en respectant les disciplines de chacun. Cette mise en place de patrons d'exercices est décrite plus longuement.,Preprint
Vers une nouvelle interface de lecture pour des forums de discussion dédiés à des élaborations c
Dans le cadre de l'apprentissage collaboratif assisté par ordinateur (ACAO ou CSCL), les forums de discussion occupent une place centrale. Si de multiples recherches leur sont consacrées, elles se centrent pour l'essentiel soit sur des méthodes d'analyse a posteriori du contenu, de la dynamique des échanges et des réseaux sociaux, soit sur le calcul d'indices de participation, éventuellement présentés aux participants en cours d'activité. Suite à un symposium de recherche, organisé à
Causal Reasoning
Does excessive exposure to violent video games cause violent behavior? Does increased gun availability cause more crime or less? Causal claims permeate everyday life and are constantly the subject of "studies" reported in the newspaper. The material in Causal and Statistical Reasoning examines the nature of causal claims and the statistical sorts of evidence used to support them. The material is contained in: approximately 20 content modules, a repository of over 100 short case studies, and a "C
Private Universe Project in Mathematics: Workshop 3. Inventing Notations
We learn how to foster and appreciate students notations for their richness and creativity. We also look at some of the possibilities that early work in creating notation systems might open up for students as they move on toward algebra.,Kenilworth Study: Pizzas In the fourth grade, the students encounter counting problems where the solutions cannot be built using standard manipulatives. As he invents his own notation systems, one student, Matt, builds on previous work to arrive at a solution
A Framework to Analyze Argumentative Knowledge Construction in Computer-Supported Collaborative Lear
Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is often based on written argumentative discourse of learners, who discuss their perspectives on a problem with the goal to acquire knowledge. Lately, CSCL research focuses on the facilitation of specific processes of argumentative knowledge construction, e.g., with computer-supported collaboration scripts. In order to refine process-oriented instructional support, such as scripts, we need to measure the influence of scripts on specific processes
