Enhancing Children's Understanding of Science Through Collaborative Creation of Animated Pictoral Models

刘易斯9453091 这个项目的目标是帮助儿童理解科学现象，让他们和他们一起工作的成年人创造和操纵动画图像模型。 该项目结合了建模的深入研究及其在小学环境中的影响，以及先进的计算技术的发展，图像重写系统，使模型创建比今天更容易。 该技术将支持交互式课堂讨论，其中可以创建，操作和比较模型以回应学生的问题和建议。 它将支持学生个人或团队在自己选择的主题上进行的项目工作。 ***

9453091 Lewis The goal of this project is to help children understand phenomena in science by allowing them and the adults with whom they work to create and manipulate animated pictorial models. The project combines intensive study of modelling and its impact in an elementary school setting with the development of advanced computing technology, the pictorial rewrite system, that make model creation dramatically easier than it is today. The technology will support interactive classroom discussion, in which models can be created, manipulated, and compared in response to student questions and suggestions. It will and also support project work by individual students or teams working on topics of their own selection. ***
