Simpozion Internaional "Challenges and Opportunities of the New Information and Communication Technologies for Education” (May 14, 2011)

The boundary between learning and e-learning Teacher Liliana Violeta Constantin, Romania, High School “Dimitrie Gusti”, Bucharest Abstract – The paper explains how to integrate different programming environments and educational software in teaching, how to achieve collaboration between students learning activities and e-learning and views on the effectiveness of such activities. Using different programming environments and communication, different software can stimulate students' intrinsic motivation, regardless of age or level of education. They understand the matter in a short time and build up their skills or develop the necessary skills and personal development and society in which they live.

Introduction The paper is structures in more parts. The second part of the paper presents the Lab View programming medium and the general structure of the application made with this soft. The next part describes the manner of VI integration in the physics lesson in which the student learn about the movement of the object in the gravitational field. The four part of the paper describes a didactical experiment achieved in scope of the analysis the influence of the computer introduce in the lesson have concerning the student results. The last part is reserved for results and for conclusions. The programming in Lab View The programming in Lab View accustoms the students to use the simulation method on the computer a physics phenomenon in teaching and learning process. The method develops the skills for modelling on the computer physics phenomena. This program is promoting of the new attitudes and new modalities of the work. It haves a friendly graphical interface, develop a visual culture. It is a modern teaching, learning and estimating method, have more facilities for processing the information, for accomplishing the calculations, for displaying the results, for making the graphics, the tables, the virtual experiments. Also this method achieving a time and teaching aids economy, involving the motivation for the study of physics. The movement of the object in the gravitational field The movement of the object in the gravitational field is a difficult subject to understand without the aid of the computer and of the Lab View program. This program permits the introduction of the input dates: X0, Y0, V0 and α0 with the values in the specify domain and the display of the output dates in the real time: tclimbing, tdescent, ttotal, Hmaximum, Vox, Voy. Also, permits achieved the graphics X and Y in function of the time, Vx, Vy in function of the time and Y in function of the X. The student can be accomplish many calculations and interpretations: they can determine the beating, they can write the movement equations on the OX axis and on the OY axis, they can write the trajectory equation, they can write the relations for the speed Vx, Vy, V, they can follow variation of the angle α in time of the movement, they

can characterize the movement on the coordinate axes. For introduce the input dates on used four digital controls, again for display the output dates on used six digital indicators. For made the graphical representations on necessaries three XY graphs.

Also they can study the movement on the vertical axe when α is 900. The uniform straight movement is if α is 00. The students are at their disposition the revision card which refer to the types of movement of the object in the gravitational field and to the characteristic of the movement and to equations which be used in solutions of the problems. They receive the work card with the problems for they solve again then verify the correct solution with the aid of the Lab View program. Also they receive a rebus which is fixing the fundamental notions necessary in the study of movement. In this way the students learn the physics quick and in the attractive modality and obtain the abilities in physics domain and in the IT domain. The VI achieved permits of the students understanding the mathematics notions concerning at the functions and the graphical representations. The graphs are making in real time. Also this program permits the represent of more functions on same graph. The didactical experiment For emphasize the positive and the negative aspects of the using the Lab View program at the lesson I selected three student for participle at the didactical experiment. Thus three students which learn in the nine classes obtained at the predictive test the same mark. After teach the lesson in the different manner: for the first in the classical manner, for the second using the achieved VI and for the third using so the Lab View simulation as the classical

teaching aids, on proposed the students to solve one problem. The problem on solve in the next manner: On launch the Lab View program using the command „Run”, after on introduced the input dates. Will be display the output dates and will be obtain the graphs X=f(t), Y=f(t), Vx=f(t), Vy=f(t), Y=f(X). On the graphs the green plot show which cursor is active. On can move the cursor on the graph and can read their coordinates, solving in this way the problem. The last needs on solve using the physical formulas. The first student try solve the proposed problem has at his disposition the revision card, the second student try solve the proposed problem has at his disposition the revision card and the Lab View program and the third student tried to find a possibility for build an experimental device for the study of the movement in the gravitational field using the materials from house keeping. The first student solved in part the problem because he can’t achieve the graphics than in the intuitive manner. The second student kept the theoretical notions more quickly than the first student and solved whole problem, the third student besides fact that solved all problem proposed the manner how achieve a catapult. This student used: a spoon, a spring, a support, a light ball made of plastic material or of pressed paper. In this way is developing the creativity of the student. Also, this made with the aid of the teacher a simulation in Lab View which permits the graphical representations of the kinetic energy and of the potential energy in function of the time.

Results and conclusions The marks obtained by students are presented in following graphics.

The realization of these graphs emphasizes the professional development of the students on point of view of the practical abilities, of the theoretical notions and of the capacity of solution the problems. On remark the fact that the student which was benefit so classical teach have more thin results than students which used the simulation in Lab View. Yet, then when on use both the Lab View and the classical teaching aids on develop harmonious and the practical abilities of the students. Certainly these interpretations can’t be generalized than in trace to accomplish more didactical experiments of this kind. The following classes they brought portfolios, reports, solutions for many problems, simulations on the computer which revealed the application of the movement in the gravitational field in every day life, in industry science and technique. For achieving the projects, they used the encyclopaedias CD-ROM, motors of searching. In this way they completed and diversified their knowledge. Using the e-mail they changed opinions even with students with from other parts of the world. They examined carefully the similarities and differences between the Romanian teaching system and that one belonging to other countries. The communication through the Internet permitted the teacher to answer the students’ questions and direct them towards the creating of their own projects even when not all the students were present at school. This method of communication cannot be used by all the students due to the fact that they do not have a computer connected to the Internet or they do not know to use very well the computer. The materials obtained by the students which used modern technologies were much more interesting than those who found only books in the library. It has been noticed that students’ interest for studying physics has been strengthened. In conclusion the used Lab View programme near the classical teaching aids permits the development students’ motivation to a serious study, understanding the subject in a shorter time and formation almost all the necessary skills for personal development as well as inside the society in they live!
