Dansk Vi beskriver, hvordan virtuelle eksperimenter kan udnyttes i et læringsdesign ved at forberede de studerende til hands-on-eksperimenter storskalafaciliteter. illustrerer designet vise, bruges på Niels Bohr Institutets kandidatkursus om neutronspredning. I den sidste uge af kurset, rejser storskala neutronspredningsfacilitet for udføre neutronspredningseksperimenter. bruger studerendes udsagn deres oplevelser argumentere for, arbejdet med experimenter forbereder engagere sig mere frugtbart lade dem fokusere fysikken og relevante data stedet instrumenternes funktion. hævder, det er, fordi overføre erfaringer rigtige eksperimenter. finder dog, læring stadig er situeret forstand, kun kendskab bestemte overføres. afslutter diskutere muligheder, som giver. English We describe how virtual experiments can be utilized in a learning design that prepares students hands-on large-scale facilities. illustrate the by showing are used Institute master level course on neutron scattering. In last week of course, travel to scattering facility perform real experiments. Through student interviews and survey answers, we argue, training engage more fruitfully with letting them focus physics rather than overwhelming instrumentation. argue this is because they transfer their experimental experience real-life situation. However, also find still situated sense only knowledge particular transferred. proceed discuss affordances
