VALENCIA DE ORO, ANA LILIAN; RAMIREZ, JOSÉ MIGUEL; GOMEZ, DANIEL y THOMSON, PETER. AN INTERACTIVE APLICATION FOR EDUCATION IN STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2011, vol.78, n.165, pp.72-83. ISSN 0012-7353.
Engineering students in structural dynamics courses frequently encounter problems in the interpretation and comprehension of mathematical concepts, and in their integration with real life applications. In order to contribute to the solution of this problem, information and communication technologies were used to develop a free-environment based educational application at the University of Valle . The application integrates simulations, animations, mathematical formulations and interaction to assist students in the learning process. An initial evaluation by both undergraduate and graduate students gave satisfactory results, regarding the effectiveness of the application.
