Virtual Environments in Science - Viten.no (17, 2003)

Viten.no is a web-based learning environment for teaching science in Norway. The Viten group has been working with development and research connected to the implementation and use of 12 programs in science classes since 1999.

Rapporten kan lastes ned i PDF nederst på siden.

The work is done in cooperation between the University of Oslo and The Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim. The group consists of science educators, programmers master and doctorial students.

The research has been carried out in close connection with teachers and their students in order to understand how ICT can contribute to the teaching and learning of science.

This report has two objectives: To tell the story of how a small project has become a national curriculum development project, spread throughout Norway and embraced by thousands of teachers and students, and to present some interesting findings from our research about how ICT may be used in teaching science.

Through our curriculum development model we have learned the importance of how the content of our programs is enhanced when placed in a socialscientific context and at the same time connected to the national curriculum. We have studied the important role the teacher plays in the classroom even when their students are working with webbased activities. Student outcomes are strongly enhanced when they work in pairs and when they work with off-line activities that emphasize the importance of communicating science. Finally, as curriculum developers, we have learned the importance of texts and graphics are used in a web-based context.
