abstract |
This paper presents the design and application of a web service architecture for providing
shared access to web-based visual representations, such as dynamic models, simulations
and visualizations. The Shared Representations (SR) system was created to facilitate
the development of collaborative and co-operative learning activities over the web,
and has been applied to provide shared group access to: a high-resolution image viewer,
a virtual petrological microscope, and a forces and motion spring simulation. As well
as explaining the architecture and three applications, we briefly present the findings
from a user study looking at primary school children’s use of a shared spring simulation.
The study findings indicate that shared access to a web-based simulation complements
exploratory discussion and enables learners to demonstrate their understanding of
a subject. Future work will explore how the system can be combined with dialogic support
and embedded in activities to encourage learners with contrasting opinions to discuss
and resolve their differing perspectives. |
