Science

1. Inquiry-Based and Problem-Solving Ap-proaches● Engaging students in investigating a situation or problem.

● Including information for students to consider and asks them to make decisions based on the information.

● Students use debate techniques or jigsaw strategies

● Rely on contrived situations or real data

◀ ex) Science Court

Science

2. Virtual Labs and Simula-tions● Engaging in lab-based activities that would be difficult or impossible in the regular classroom.

● Chemistry labs can be carried out safely on the computer.

.

◀ ex) Roller Coaster simula-tion

Science

● Software that demonstrates otherwise-inaccessible phe-nomena.

● Measurement in Motion allows students to analyze those motions as well as to see particular kinds of motions.

◀ ex) Cells Alive!

3. Models and Demon-strations

Science

4. Science Software for Young Learners

● Software that concentrates scientific processes -the means of approaching problems

● It focuses on introducing students to such scientific activi-ties as observation and hypothesis generation.

ex) Sammy’s Science House ▶

Mathematics

1. Skills Prac-tice

● Math skills software that helps students learn why (to un-derstand Why rather than just to know).

● skills software should provide students with opportunities to try different answers, to see multiple representations, and to move beyond simple recall.

ex) Piggy in Number-land

Mathematics

2. Modeling Soft-ware

●Mathematical software allows students to create and manip-ulate either data sets modeling or representations of their problems, so they can explore various features.

●These manipulations can range from simple explorations of the properties of shapes to more this category allows students to work with fractions in ways that are impossible with paper and to analyze data from their own data collection efforts.

ex) Java Math-Worlds

Mathematics

ex) Tinkerplots Dynamic data explo-ration

2. Modeling Soft-ware

Mathematics

● This engage students in a gamelike atmosphere where they run some kind of business.

● students can improve math, problem-solving, communica-tion skills.

● teacher has to structure the activity to focus on the learning goals students should meet.

ex) Hot Dog Stand ▶

Mathematics

4. Problem-Solving Applica-tions● Helping students develop problem solving skill than on de-veloping further mathematical skills.

● In this Software, students are provided with a contextual-ized mathematics situation.

● Students are responsible for determining what the problem is that they’re trying to solve, what information is important for solving it, and what mathematical operations they’ll need to use.

ex) Zoombinis Logical Journey Math Mysteriesz

◀ex) Zoombinis Logical Journey

Mathematics

● Not only calculate but can be used for analysis and model-ing as well.

● Although using calculation tools is controversial, these can often be used to enhance math classes.

● Teachers have to determine whether these tools would add to the lesson or detract from it.

◀ex) Graphing Calculator

ex) Excel Graphing calculator Texas Instruments Calculation

Comprehensive Software Solutions

● Comprehensive Software Solution states standards in each of the content areas and provide management tools for teachers to gauge their students’ learning.

● However, it has flawed, they show merely that students im-proved from beginning to the end of the academic year. They don’t consider that other forms of instruction took place.

● Teacher will have the opportunity to determine when and whether these tools may be appropriate for your classroom.

Tom is a physically challenged person. One day, math teacher hand out homework,

which draw graphs after solving the problem. Tom could solve the problem easily.

However he couldn’t draw the graph because of his physically disability.

If you were the teacher, how can you help Tom? what kind of software can support

Tom?

SITUATION

Situation 1.

① Piggy in Numberland ② Java MathWorlds ③ Zoombinis Logical

Journey

④ Hot Dog Stand ⑤ Graphing Calculator

SITUATION

Eric really hates biologics class.

This time he learned about the process of cell division. Although all of his

friends was fun, Eric is not fun. Because this is difficult to understand.

Eric has been very bored in biologics.

If you were the teacher, How can you help Eric? What kind of software

can support Eric?

Situation 2.

① Science Court ② Cells Alive

③ Sammy’s Science House ④ Roller Coaster simulation

SITUATION

Situation 3.

① determine when and whether these tools may be appropriate for your

classroom.

② Instruct students to overuse this program.

③ Even though it is too hard to students, Say “Just do it!”

④ Teacher doesn’t try to support students.

What should be considered when teacher use “Comprehensive Soft-

ware Solutions“ ?
