... a computer-based microworld, called the Envisioning Machine, presents graphical models of velocity and acceleration (see Roschelle, 1987). ... The Envisioning Machine is a computer program designed to teach students about velocity and acceleration. It is a microworld-based system with two windows. The bottom window depicts the "Observable World". In this window, different motions of a ball are modeled. The top window depicts the "Newtonian World" which can contain two particles. These particles are graphical representations of properties of motion. ... The students' task is to watch a ball in the Observable World and then set the position, velocity, and acceleration of a particle in the Newtonian World so as to model the motion of the ball.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - envisioning%20machine
