Learning in Artificial Environments: Embodiment, Embeddedness and Dynamic Adaptation.
Winn, William
Technology, Instruction, Cognition and Learning, v1 n1 p87-114 2003
Forms a conceptual framework for studying learning in artificial environments, i.e. computer-supported simulations of natural environments. Discusses the ideas that cognition is embodied in physical activity, that this activity is embedded in a learning environment, and that learning is the result of adaptation of the learner to the environment and the environment to the learner. (Contains 75 references.) (Author/LRW)
Descriptors: Cognitive Processes, Computer Simulation, Educational Environment, Learning Strategies, Physical Environment, Virtual Reality
