Visualisations can be constructed to:
- highlight different aspects of the model,
- suit different levels of expertise,
- cater for different learning needs
and
- cope with different learning styles.
For example, the
solar geometry model
which calculates the location of the sun in the sky, given time, date and location on the earth's surface. Four JeLSIMs have
been produced from this model, each with very different interfaces. Click on the pictures to see the model in action.
