Transparency in qualitative research permits the ... -
Developing a methodological approach to measure cognitive load during complex problem solving.
Reid, Clodagh; Kieghrey, Conor; Dunbar, Rónán; Murray, Niall; Buckley, Jeffrey (Technology Education Research Group, 2019-06)Problem solving is an important element of engineering and technology disciplines and spatial ability contributes to learners’ success in problem solving in these areas (Wai, et al., 2009). As excessive cognitive load ... -
Differences in perceived stress levels and measured stress while solving spatial tests
Raju, Gibin; Sorby, Sheryl A.; Panther, Grace; Reid, Clodagh; Mogadam, Jasmine Haili (ASEE, 2022-08-26)Many events, including tests, personal conflicts, and hard deadlines, may result in a high level of stress for both students and educational practitioners. For example, taking a test is particularly stressful for students ... -
An evaluation of the efficacy of a contemporary engineering education framework
Reid, Clodagh; Dunbar, Ronan (Athlone Institute of Technology, 2018-04-24)The research aims to determine the role of cognitive abilities in problem solving in engineering education. The investigation of these abilities will contribute to a key objective of the research, informing curricular ... -
Examining the relationship between spatial ability and cognitive load during complex problem solving
Reid, Clodagh; Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Dunbar, Rónán (PATT, 2022-06-21)Spatial ability is documented as a predictor of success in STEM disciplines and noted to contribute to individuals problem-solving approaches. While there is a significant body of correlational evidence indicating that ... -
Investigating the effect of engineering student's spatial ability and expertise on general complex problem solving
Reid, Clodagh; Buckley, Jeffrey; Dunbar, Rónán (Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)Spatial ability is attributed to success in STEM disciplines and is outlined as a component of general cognitive ability through the Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) model of human intelligence. Research in spatially orientated ... -
Investigating the role of visualisation in complex problem-solving across expertise in engineering education
Reid, Clodagh; Dunbar, Rónán; Buckley, Jeffrey; Bowe, Brian (Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)Spatial ability is proposed to play an important role in problem solving and may contribute to supporting engineering students in solving complex problems. Hambrick, et al., in the context of geology, determined individuals ... -
An investigation into the role of spatial ability in problem solving in engineering education
Reid, Clodagh (Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2021-11)Problem solving is a fundamental component of engineering practice and as such, the development of problem-solving skills is a core goal of engineering education. Problem-orientated pedagogical approaches are used in ... -
A novel mixed methods approach to synthesize EDA data with behavioral data to gain educational insight
Reid, Clodagh; Keighrey, Conor; Murray, Niall; Dunbar, Rónán; Buckley, Jeffrey (MDPI, 2020-11-30)Whilst investigating student performance in design and arithmetic tasks, as well as during exams, electrodermal activity (EDA)-based sensors have been used in attempts to understand cognitive function and cognitive load. ... -
A preliminary model of problem categorisation to explore the cognitive abilities required for problem solving in engineering education.
Reid, Clodagh; Dunbar, Rónán; Buckley, Jeffrey (TERG, 2018-06)The provision of engineering education as a means of enabling students to develop contemporary transversal competencies such as problem solving, critical thinking, adaptive reasoning and communication, places a responsibility ... -
Using pupil dilation to measure cognitive load during a spatial skills test
Raju, Gibin; Sorby, Sheryl A.; Panther, Grace; Reid, Clodagh; Fisher, Luke (ASEE, 2022-08-23)This full research paper explores how spatial skills and cognitive load interact. Spatial skills allow a person to manipulate and rotate any three-dimensional object. Studies have reported that spatial skills can be a ... -
