Abstract | This study investigates the effects on various learning outcomes of an inquiry-based multimedia learning environment called Astronomy Village: Investigating the Universe. Students were pre-/post-tested on their conceptual understanding, well-structured problem solving abilities, and ill-structured problem solving abilities. The results of the study indicate that Astronomy Village is an effective tool for helping students learn important astronomy content and well-structured problem-solving skills. The inquiry-based approach also provides for a more robust understanding of the problem so that concepts and problem-solving strategies can be applied in a new context. This study also reports that there are significant implications to be drawn from the lack of transfer to ill-structured problems. (KHR) |
