商品描述
This book synthesizes findings from recent and ongoing research on the use of Extended Reality (XR) to support learning of STEM content. XR is slowly being introduced in classrooms due to significant changes in XR technology. These tools were historically costly, unfriendly, and developed only for gamers. Today, XR tools are able to enhance students' immersive experiences in such settings. In classrooms, in particular, they provide learners with an opportunity to manipulate abstract objects as if they are physical objects. The book begins with an extensive and detailed description and evaluation of the impact of various XR interventions on learning and engagement in STEM classrooms. The author then concludes with theoretical frameworks for investigating learning in computer- immersive contexts and practical implications for effectively using XR tools to learn STEM.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書綜合了近期及持續進行的研究結果,探討擴增實境(Extended Reality, XR)在支持STEM(科學、技術、工程和數學)內容學習中的應用。隨著XR技術的重大變化,XR逐漸被引入教室。這些工具在歷史上成本高昂、不友好,且僅為遊戲玩家所開發。如今,XR工具能夠增強學生在這些環境中的沉浸式體驗。特別是在教室中,它們為學習者提供了操控抽象物體的機會,彷彿這些物體是實體的。本書首先對各種XR介入對STEM教室學習和參與的影響進行了廣泛而詳細的描述和評估。作者隨後總結了在計算機沉浸式環境中研究學習的理論框架,以及有效使用XR工具學習STEM的實際意涵。
作者簡介
Ferdie Rivera, Ph.D., is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and Director of the Ed.D. Educational Leadership Program at San Jose State University, USA. He conducts research in school- and university-based math cognition and, in particular, investigates issues involving mathematical knowledge construction and development among learners. His interventions follow design-based research protocols that allow for empirical engagement in continuous cycles of development, testing, and refinement on the basis of how learners interact with learning tools in both individual and collaborative learning contexts. He has published significantly in the area of structural thinking in mathematics. His current research involves the development and scaling of virtual reality apps for learning mathematics in classrooms.
