Computer Simulations: Technological Advances in Inquiry Learning, Science
 









Excerpts: The promise offered by inquiry learning is tempered by the problems
students typically experience when using this approach. Fortunately, integrating
supportive cognitive tools with computer simulations may provide a solution. 
Learning by Inquiry Studies of young students' knowledge and skills indicate
that many students in large parts of the world are not optimally prepared for
the requirements of society and the workplace (1). To meet this challenge,
curricula should be designed to help students learn how to regulate their own
learning, how to continue to gain new knowledge, and how to update their
existing knowledge.
