In this paper the fuzzy knowledge representation of a neural network-based fuzzy model is presented. The model is used to assess student's motivational state in a discovery learning environment. Student's observable behavior and motivational factors are described with linguistic variables. The inputs of the model are tailored from real students' data, with the assistance of a group of expert teachers. Results of our preliminary study were encouraging, since data obtained from real students' log files, have been successfully used to form the membership functions that assign membership degrees to the linguistic values of the linguistic variables.

Discovery learning approaches to education have recently come under scrutiny , with many studies indicating limitations to discovery learning practices. Therefore, 2 meta-analyses were conducted using a sample of 164 studies: The 1st examined the effects of unassisted discovery learning versus explicit instruction, and the 2nd examined the effects of enhanced and/or assisted discovery versus other types of instruction (e.g., explicit, unassisted discovery). Random effects analyses of 580 comparisons revealed that outcomes were favorable for explicit instruction when compared with unassisted discovery under most conditions (d ϭ -0.38, 95% CI [-.44, Ϫ.31]). In contrast, analyses of 360 comparisons revealed that outcomes were favorable for enhanced discovery when compared with other forms of instruction (d ϭ 0.30, 95% CI [.23, .36]). The findings suggest that unassisted discovery does not benefit learners, whereas feedback, worked examples, scaffolding, and elicited explanations do.

Our research is focused on the selection, classification and comparative presentation of the various proposals concerning the contribution of the history of physics in physics education, that have been designed and/or carried out as part of either research or curriculum development during the last century. The framework of the classification is the result of the study of the aims of the teaching-learning of physics, as they have been presented since the 1960s, coupled with the current trends in science education, including discovery learning in the 1960s and constructivism nowadays. The study of the various proposals concerning the contribution of the history of physics in physics education revealed different points of view and led to the creation of new sub-categories of the initial framework. In an attempt to havea better overall view of the classification, we designed a chart so that the various proposals reported could be observed and commented on in a comparative way. The framework of the classification is presented on the vertical axis of a chart, while time from 1893, the year of the earliest reference available (Lodge 1893), till today is presented on the horizontal axis.

(2006:12) bahwa prinsip metode discovery dapat dijelaskan sebagai sebuah prosedur mengajar yang menekankan pada belajar perseorangan. Adapun prinsip discoverysebagai sebuah metode yaitu: 1) proses pelajaran pindah bergerak dari suatu prasangka ke tingkat analisis terhadap segala sesuatu dan kemudian langsung meloncat ke pengetahuan yang mendasar dan kuat, yaitu dibuktikan dalam bentuk dokumen. 2) kelas berfungsi sebagai suatu laboratorium mini dan fenomena dalam masyarakat menjadi suatu laboratorium besar yang dapat digunakan untuk eksplorasi dan memperoleh temuan. 3) anak-anak belajar dari hasil pengamatan mereka dan segala sesuatu yang dialami. 4) anak-anak menemukan hubungan dan membuat generalisasi secara individual. Metode discovery menuntut penangguhan verbalisme atau penjelasan-penjelasan verbal yang dilontarkan guru tentang penemuan penting sampai siswa sadar akan suatu konsep. Metode discoverymerupakan bagian dari suatu praktik pendidikan yang lebih besar, yang sering disebut pengajaran yang heuristic, atau sejenis pengajaran yang mencakup metode-metode yang direncanakan untuk memajukan cara belajar yang aktif, yang berorientasi pada proses, diarahkan sendiri, menekankan temuan dari siswa, dan reflektif. Discovery inquiry itu sebenarnya dalam pengertian terpisah, namun tidak bisa dipisahkan karena dalam penerapannya harus senantiasa berdampingan bergandengan makna. Discovery merupakan metode penemuan, sedangkan inquiry adalah pemecahan masalah. Menurut pandangan Jerome Bruner dalam Herman J.Waluyo (2006:13) bahwa metode discoverysemakin efektif apabila di dalamnya difokuskan suatu pemecahan masalah. Pemecahan melalui discoveryatau penemuan ini mengembangkan daya berinquiryatau pemecahan masalah yang merupakan dasar dari segala tugas yang amat bermanfaat bagi kehidupan. Dikatakan pula bahwa banyak guru mengharapkan akan dapat menyederhanakan dan menjelaskan lebih rinci tentang metode discovery atau penemuan ini, tetapi dalam riset yang telah dilakukan oleh para ahli, ditemui hal-hal yang membingungkan tentang metode ini, antara lain sebagai berikut: 1) penemuan sering dipakai berganti-ganti denganinquiry dan pemecahan masalah. 2) beberapa ahli melihat perbedaan yang cukup nyata antara penemuan atau discovery dengan inquiry. 3) ahli lain melihat discovery sebagai bagian dari inquiry. 4) ahli yang lain lagi memandang inquiry sebagai bagian dari discovery. 5) ahli lain menulis tentang model heuristic sebagai mencakup discovery dan inquiry. Secara ringkas, walaupun metode ini sering dihubungkan dengan kebingungan-kebingungan, tetapi metode ini pantas menjadi salah satu metode yang harus dimiliki oleh guru jika ingin bekerja secara efektif dengan berbagai gaya belajar siswa yang berbeda. Jenis-jenis dari metode discovery adalah: 1) self-discovery, yaitu siswa dibantu untuk menemukan sosuli pemecahan masalah.

Abstrak: Artikel ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya hasil belajar siswa SMP dalam memahami materi dinamika partikel untuk menentukan contoh dari kasus-kasus yang ada di materi dinamika artikel. Sehingga terlihat bahwa kemampuan siswa dalam memahami materi dinamika partikel masih minim. Hal ini disebabkan oleh guru kurang melibatkan siswa dalam kegiatan belajar mengajar. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut dilakukanlah upaya dengan menerapkan suatu model pembelajaran yaitu discovery learning dimana siswa diberikan kesempatan untuk menemukan konsep sendiri dan melakukan penemuan dalam proses pembelajaran, sedangkan guru berperan memberikan bimbingan. Dari hasil penelitian, dapat dilihat bahwa terjadi peningkatan hasil belajar siswa dinilai dari aspek pengetahuan setiap siklus yaitu, 67,04 untuk siklus I menjadi 73,93 untuk siklus II dan 79,13 untuk siklus III. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa pelaksanaan pembelajaran dengan menerapkan model pembelajaran discovery learning dapat meningkatkan aktivitas dan hasil belajar fisika siswa pada materi gerak lurus serta hukum newton dan penerapannya. Kata-kata kunci: Dinamika Partikel, Discovery learning, Hukum newton.

Abstract
In an era of burgeoning digitization and Internet usage, the ways by which consumers choose to explore, engage with, value, and share music are undergoing rapidly dynamic change, and the music industry endeavors to adapt. Music discovery plays an integral role in the realm of digital music, and this study explores how music consumers discover new music and what music discovery strategies they adopt, in addition to developing an understanding of how digital and Web 2.0 technologies are utilized in these discovery strategies. Six individuals provided data in the form of in- depth interviews, which were followed by second interviews for additional insight. This study posits five main categories of discovery strategies through which individuals find new music: (1) opinion seeking and word of mouth, (2) independent search, (3) algorithms and computer-based recommendations, (4) chance, and (5) amalgamate strategies which integrate multiple strategies. The findings of this study demonstrate the significance of Web 2.0 technologies in the process of music discovery, yet acknowledge the importance of offline sources. Ramifications for the music industry are drawn, encouraging record labels to embrace streaming, and for music services to improve on the overall user experience to entice greater levels of engagement with the music experience and the music discovery process.

Vocabulary can be taught and learned in a variety of ways. The purpose of this paper is
elaborating on three different approaches to teaching and learning vocabulary: implicit learning,
explicit learning and Data Driven Learning. Implicit learning mainly happens when the mind
is not focused on learning vocabulary, but somewhere else, such as understanding a text. In
contrast, explicit learning occurs through instruction by which learners’ attention is focused on
vocabulary as a language item. Apart from explicit and implicit approaches to teaching and
learning vocabulary, learning vocabulary through Data Driven Learning (DDL) is discussed in this
paper. DDL is a kind of inductive learning approach through which learners become their own
researchers finding examples and developing their own rules for language learning. Included in
this paper are some practical suggestions for enhancing vocabulary learning through each of
these three approaches.

penerapan discovery learning pada materi volume bangun ruang sisi lengkung

It is necessary to get involved actively in the process of acquiring knowledge to learn mathematical contents successfully. The theory of constructivism emphasizes student's individual activity in which he/she creates his/her own knowledge through his/her own experience, while the teacher prepares and shapes the environment for learning and encourages and guides students in their independent learning. The aim of this approach is for students to learn how to learn, and Polya's problem-solving model provides an answer how to perform in practice -in 4 steps: understanding the problem, devising a plan, carrying out the plan and reflection.

Discovery learning is believed to be an effective method for learning motor, anticipation, and cognitive skills, but the mechanisms leading to improvements are not well understood in the context of real‐life decisions in sports. There is no agreement on whether implicit or explicit learning processes underlie discovery learning. We compared the performances of four groups of participants in a basketball decision situation: Two groups received training in perceptual or cognitive discovery learning, respectively; a third group received rule‐instructed guidance, and the fourth group was used as a control and received no specific training. We evaluated the relative effectiveness of these approaches and their common or distinct mechanisms. The rule‐instructed group was superior in decision quality to the other groups. In addition, we found that cognitive discovery learning is based more on explicit processes but perceptual discovery learning relies more on implicit processes. These results indicate that in sports the concept of discovery learning should be differentiated according to its perceptual and cognitive components

Historians occasionally use timelines, but many seem to regard such signs merely as ways of visually summarizing results that are presumably better expressed in prose. Challenging this language-centered view, I suggest that timelines might assist the generation of novel historical insights. To show this, I begin by looking at studies confirming the cognitive benefits of diagrams like timelines. I then try to survey the remarkable diversity of timelines by analyzing actual examples. Finally, having conveyed this (mostly untapped) potential, I argue that neglecting timelines might mean neglecting significant aspects of reality that are revealed only by those signs. My overall message is that, once we accept that relations are as important for the mind as what they relate, we have to pay closer attention to any semiotic device that enables or facilitates the discernment of new relations.

In this paper we report on the operation and results of a pilot trial on the use of Science-Fiction Prototyping (SFP) as a means to motivate students to engage with STEM and language learning courses. In particular we describe two case studies. The first was conducted in Shijiazhuang University, China, and involved approximately 102 students following a course aimed at improving their English language abilities for computer science applications. The second case study concerned the use of micro science-fiction prototypes, in the form of Twitter-fiction, as a means of motivating pre-university students to take up STEM studies and careers. Finally, the paper concludes by describing future directions of this work

The world of astronomy has always been indebted to amateur astronomers for their priceless contribution to the field of astronomy. Big organizations like NASA are constantly working in the field of space exploration and research. They have heavy, modern and quality telescopes and other gears for their research. Yet the history is full of numerous examples of amateur astronomers who with their portable telescopes and limited capability, have made some amazing and path defining contributions in the field of astronomy and space exploration. These people not only contributed to the astronomy but also opened new possibilities to the scientist to understand and explore the vast space.

This research aimed to find out the difference of cognitive learning achievement between students taught with Concept Attainment Model and those taught with Discovery Learning model. This study was a quasiexperimental research. The population of research was the 12 th Science graders of SMAN 1 Karas of Magetan Regency in school year of 2016/2017. The sample was taken using cluster random sampling technique, consisting of two grades: the 12 th Science 4 grade as the first experiment class using Concept Attainment Model and the 12 th Science 3 grade as the second experiment class using Discovery Learning model. Technique of collecting data used was t-test technique for data of students' cognitive learning outcome. Data analysis was carried out using unpaired two-sample variance analysis. The result of research showed there was a difference of cognitive learning outcome between the students treated with learning using Concept Attainment Model and those treated with learning using Discovery Learning. The cognitive learning achievement of students taught with Concept Attainment Model was higher than that of those taught with Discovery Learning.

In the context of a design-based research effort to develop a technology-enabled constructivist algebra unit, a new activity architecture emerged that steps students through discovery levels. As they build a virtual model of a problem situation, students figure out technical principles for assuring the model’s fidelity to the situation. These construction heuristics, we find, are precisely the conceptual foundations of algebra, such as tinkering with the model to assure that the variable quantity is of consistent size throughout the model. We articulated these principles as situated intermediary learning objectives (SILOs). At each interaction level, the student discovers a SILO, and then the technology takes over by automatizing that SILO, thus freeing the student for further discovery. We call this architecture reverse scaffolding, because the cultural mediator thus relieves learners from performing what they know to do, not from what they do not know to do. In a quasi-experimental evaluation study (Grades 4 & 9; n=40), reverse-scaffolding students outperformed direct-scaffolding students, for whom the technical features were pre-automatized. We speculate on the architecture’s generalizability.

The relative effectiveness of explicit instruction, guided discovery, and discovery learning techniques in enhancing anticipation skill in young, intermediate-level tennis players was examined. Performance was assessed pre-and postintervention, during acquisition, and under transfer conditions designed to elicit anxiety through the use of laboratory and on-court measures. The 3 intervention groups improved from pre-to posttest compared with a control group (n ϭ 8), highlighting the benefits of perceptual-cognitive training. Participants in the explicit (n ϭ 8) and guided discovery (n ϭ 10) groups improved their performance during acquisition at a faster rate than did the discovery learning (n ϭ 7) group. However, the explicit group showed a significant decrement in performance when tested under anxiety provoking conditions compared with the guided discovery and discovery learning groups. Although training facilitated anticipation skill, irrespective of the type of instruction used in this experiment, guided discovery methods are recommended for expediency in learning and resilience under pressure.

In computational modeling activities, learners are expected to discover the inner workings of scientific and mathematical systems: First elaborating their understandings of a given system through constructing a computer model, then ''debugging'' that knowledge by testing and refining the model. While such activities have been shown to support science learning, difficulties building and using computational models are common and reduce learning benefits. Drawing from Collins and Ferguson (Educ Psychol 28(1):25–42, 1993), we conjecture that a major cause for such difficulties is a misalignment between the epistemic games (modeling strategies) learners play, and the epistemic forms (model types) a given modeling environment is designed to support. To investigate, we analyzed data from a study in which ten groups of U. S. fifth graders (n = 28) worked to create stop motion animations and agent-based computational models (ABMs) to discover the particulate nature of matter. Content analyses revealed that (1) groups that made progress— that is, that developed increasingly mechanistic, explanatory models—focused on elements , movement, and interactions when developing their models, a strategy well-aligned with both animation and ABM; (2) groups that did not make progress focused on sequences of phases, a strategy well-aligned with animation but not with ABM; and (3) struggling groups progressed when they received guidance about modeling strategies, but not when they received guidance about model content. We present summary analyses and three vignettes to illustrate these findings, and share implications for research and curricular design.
