Exposing Gaps in Students’ Mental Model of the Neuron : Comparing traditional neuroscience instruction of the Action Potential to Layered, Iterative Visual External Representations
Satyugjit Virk; John Black
World Conference on E-Learning in Corporate, Government, Healthcare, and Higher Education 2011 (Oct 18, 2011) pp. 467–473
Students were run in two groups, one consisting of a series of animations depicting neural signal transmission at the cellular and molecular levels using iterative visualizations, where a visualization for every concept appears, or “iterates” at...
