Use of Computer-Assisted Experimentation (CAEx) in Teaching Science in Moroccan High Schools

Abstract

Computer Assisted Experimentation (CAEx) allows real scientific experiments using a computer, composed of an electronic interface for data acquisition and sensor. The CAEx is a very important area for the use of ICT in experimental sciences. In Morocco, although the Ministry of National Education has equipped almost all high schools with equipment CAEx, studies have shown that CAEx remains little used in the teaching of physics and science and in high schools. Our study aims at identifying the obstacles that still hinder the use of CAEx in the teaching of physics and science in Moroccan high schools. For this, we opted for a survey methodology based on a quantitative-qualitative analysis of the responses retrieved following a specialized questionnaire. The overall results show that the integration of the CAEx encounters several obstacles despite the efforts made by the Minister of Education and Vocational Training.

Contribution of Simulation in the Development of the Competences of Future Radiology Technicians in the Framework of the Management of the Risks Associated with the Medical Radiology Techniques

“…Similarly, this session was organized while respecting the three distinct stages of a simulation session: the briefing, which allows the trainer to specify the framework of the session and its precise objectives, the unfolding of the scenario and finally the debriefing, which is a crucial moment of learning and reflection on the simulation session [15,21,32].…”

The Added Value of Integrating the Electronics Workbench Simulator in the Teaching of Electrical Concepts to Moroccan High School Students

“…In the current era, information and communication technologies (ICT) have provided innovative tools [1][2]. With the help of ICT, learners can be more motivated and achieve better results [3]. ICT is introduced in the different areas of our society and affects, in a remarkable way, the economic, social, political, cultural, and educational scales [4][5][6].…”
