Definition

  • Pedagogica a toolkit to build model-based or simulation-based learning systems
  • Pedaogica “tames powerful software tools for practical, effective learning activities [...] Pedagogica is a software environment that converts tools and models into hypermodels. These are inquiry-based lessons that provide guidance to students as they use the software. Pedagogica tailors the appearance of the tools and the available options, presenting only those that are relevant to the activity. The interface is also used to assess student progress. It reports feedback, in real-time over the Internet, as students work through a series of activities.” [1]
