Research abstract
While computers in the classroom provide possibilities forproject-based and highly collaborative learning, there is a lack of activities that engage teachers andstudents in hands-on science learning. The goal of this approach is to provide teachers with the necessary support for inquiry-based learning by utilizing sensors through a multimedia web-based application, OASIS (Online Application to Support Inquiry-based Science).
