Research Abstract |
The aim of the research is to develop a method to realize computer systems that support learners to acquire ability of analytical thinking about phenomena in physics and modeling them. Learners are given a problem to design physics experiments where they are required to decide the purpose of the experiment and procedures of data analysis. We developed a method to guide learners to rethink experiments by pointing out issues in their designs. We also developed a method to generate explanations about dynamic systems from causal relations between forces and objects in the physics systems
