The Impact of Computer-Simulated Haptic Force Feedback on Learning

Session Details

Tuesday, March 27, 2007
3:30 p.m. - 5:15 p.m.
Innovation Hall B

Session Type: Project Parlor

Speaker(s)

Gary R. Bertoline, Distinguished Professor of Computer Graphics and Assistant Dean, Purdue University
Enkhtuvshin Dorjgotov, PhD student, Purdue University

Abstract

Many scientific, mathematic, and engineering concepts often require learners to build abstract mental models that involve invisible factors, such as intangible force fields and interactions among charged particles. This parlor will demonstrate the use of haptics devices and visualization to improve student learning and retention in science, math, and engineering.
