In this paper we describe incorporating Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity into an interactive computer game intended for learning and teaching purposes in Australian senior high school and tertiary education. The game, which is based on \emph{Asteroids}, embeds either a classical or relativistic model of physics in the game environment such that players interact directly with the physics in...
With the construction and promotion of the Chinese national outstanding course, high-quality network curriculum are in urgent need. This article discusses the application of the network platform of national outstanding course "Polymer Physics" in teaching practice, which include the syllabus design, the statistical analysis of different modulus and the improvements in the future.
Virtual laboratories (VLs) have to overcome important challenges to improve student knowledge, understanding and motivation. This research aims to test the hypothesis that, through adding features of serious games to VLs and integrating artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, an enhancement of student motivation, knowledge and understanding can be attained. This work introduces the Olympia architecture,...
