HOW DO FIELD-DEPENDENT AND FIELD-INDEPENDENT LEARNERS’ INTERACT WITH A COMPUTER MODELING TOOL TO SOLVE A PROBLEM? IMPLICATIONS FOR THE DESIGN OF JOINT COGNITIVE SYSTEMS Charoula Angeli, Nicos Valanides, University of Cyprus, Cyprus Research accounts on examining
only the performance of a system are not sufficient, because they
cannot establish principles about how technology affordances work
with learners, and how one should go about improving the performance
of the system. Therefore, in the current study, a mixed-method
research methodology was undertaken in order to understand how 119
learners with different cognitive styles interacted with a
computer-modeling tool to solve a problem. Implications for the
design of effective joint cognitive systems are also discussed. |
