Interactive Simulation "The primary target for these simulations was originally college undergraduates with a wide range of science backgrounds and interests, and this is the population that has been studied in our research. However, these simulations appear to be useful for a surprisingly large range of students and are now extensively used in many high schools as well as some middle schools. In addition, we have received numerous anecdotal reports of grade school students finding them highly engaging and have observed physics graduate students learning new physics by playing with them. An interesting area of future research would be the study of how the findings we report here might depend on the age and background of the student beyond the levels explored in this work." |
