ARI@ITALES

ARI@ITALES is composed of a set of tools (authoring tools) for allowing teachers to realize courses available on the Internet or on CD and thus to exploit the educational functions incorporated in the Solution Sheet and in the microworlds common to ARI-LAB 2 and ARI@ITALES.
Besides, ARI@ITALES makes learning environments available to students to solve the activity of solution of the problems present in a course carried out with the authoring tools of ARI@ITALES. Students can access to the courses produced with the authoring tools of ARI@ITALES and carry out the activities through a common browser (Explorer).

The authoring tools available for teachers are:

  • The Text Editor, the teacher can type the problem texts with.
  • The Solution Sheet, by means of which the teacher can make examples of solution to problems to be inserted in a course, interacting with the available microworlds.
  • The Simulator, with which the teacher can create simulations to illustrate the students how the microworlds work or to show how to solve a problem.
  • The Player, the teacher can review the simulations carried out with.

The learning environments for students are:

  • The Solution Sheet, with which the student can carry out the solutions to the problems present in a course, interacting with the available microworlds.
  • The Player, with which the student can see a simulation present in a course and downloaded on his/her own computer.
