Effects of interactive computer simulation and animation (CSA) on student learning: A case study involving energy, impulse, and momentum in rigid‐body engineering dynamics

Abstract: This paper describes the development and assessment of computer simulation and animation learning modules that involve energy, impulse, and momentum in rigid‐body engineering dynamics. The assessment results show that the group‐average learning gain increases from less than 23% in the comparison group to more than 60% in the intervention group.

“…The same research also reflected that the students having difficulty in abstracting the important information with only limited English text. Furthermore, visualization and simulation tools help students improve their concept understanding by allowing them to visualize dependent complicated motion and select the most relevant concept for effective problem solving [26, 36]. This is consistent with the findings through MLR analysis of Model 2, which validated H 3 and H 4 .…”

“…However, static visuals are insufficient for students to grasp how an object moves. Animation can serve as a supporting tool for the students to visualize the changes in position and orientation of an object in engineering concepts (angular velocity and angular acceleration) [36, 58, 78]. The interactive 2‐D and 3‐D animations features can be used to demonstrate the dynamic motion of the engineering model.…”

“…Visualisation tool using Sim2Bil [39] This research study utilised the visualisation tool Sim2Bil, which combines a simulation of two cars, velocity graphs, and input for velocity functions to facilitate mathematics education in engineering studies. Interactive Computer Simulation and Animation (CSA) module [40] A new interactive CSA module was developed in an undergraduate engineering dynamics course to improve student learning of particle kinetics. This CSA module is unique in that it combines computer visualisation with mathematical modelling, allowing students to connect engineering dynamics phenomena to the underlying mathematics directly.…”
