Overview

This text presents the proceedings of the NATO workshop Knowledge acquisition in the domain of physics and intelligent learning environments held in Lyon, France, in July 1990. The contributions show clearly the different research approaches used in the area: via artificial intelligence, cognitive psychology and physics education (didactics). This book uses these three perspectives to discuss the teaching-learning process in a scientific domain in relation to new information technology. The papers present a variety of possible learning environments, from microworlds corresponding to physics models to environments using computers with captors as data treatmetns. In all approaches, the question of guidance and student modelling is raised and studied from different perspectives.
