| Research Abstract |
We have implemented a model-building learning environment which integrates 'learning through modeling' and 'learning from errors,' and evaluated its effectiveness. Two key technologies are developed: (1) the robust simulator which can calculate the behavior of an erroneous model even if the model includes constraint-violation, and (2) the semantics of constraints which is a systematic description of physical meanings of constraints and provides heuristics for explaining the unnatural behavior of models. These technologies enabled the new model-building learning environment which combines the merits of both 'learning through modeling' and 'learning from errors' pedagogy. A preliminary experiment suggested it is promising in in learning science.
