Programs, science-based learning

A fundamentally different type of simulation is offered by science-based learning environments. Such environments incorporate some general-purpose mathematical engine that either represents nature directly or that can be programmed to represent nature. Examples are Mathematica (7) and some similar programs (8-9) for general analytical modeling in the physical sciences and Interactive Physics for introductory classical mechanics (10). Mathematica and Interactive Physics can be applied to countless topics, as opposed to the narrow focus of Flash-based simulations. Even more importantly, Mathematica and Interactive Physics are open-ended in that the software may accommodate unscripted inquiries and follow-up questions. [Pg.209]
