Examining the components of fluid intelligence: implications for STEM education.
(ASEE, 2018)
Substantial empirical evidence illustrates the significance of spatial ability for STEM academic achievement. However, it is critical that research efforts continue to identify cognitive factors which are associated with ...
Spatial skills in education: a national study.
(University of Limerick, 2016-09)
It is widely accepted that spatial skills play an inherent role in educational
success, especially in STEM disciples such as Engineering, Mathematics and
Graphics. This paper presents an initial investigation into spatial ...
Assessing design activity in engineering education: a proposed synthesis of adaptive comparative judgement and the CDIO Framework.
(ASEE, 2018)
One of the leading frameworks in engineering education specifically associated with design based competencies is the CDIO framework. This has been incorporated internationally into many institutions offering engineering ...
Investigating the effect of engineering student's spatial ability and expertise on general complex problem solving
(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 ...
Implicit theories of intelligence in STEM education: perspectives through the lens of technology education students.
(Springer, 2019)
The educational significance of eliciting students’ implicit theories of intelligence
is well established with the majority of this work focussing on theories regarding
entity and incremental beliefs. However, a second ...
Comparative judgement: an overview
(Springer, 2021-05-30)
There is a growing demand for the use of digital tools in assessment. Few approaches show innovative benefits beyond being logistical aids. Comparative judgment (CJ) has the potential to enhance educational practices by ...
The potential bifurcation of static and dynamic spatial cognitive processes.
(ASEE, 2016-10)
Considering the widely acknowledged correlation between spatial ability and graphics based
education, it is important to uncover the full remit of this association to inform pedagogical
practices within the discipline. ...
Investigating perceptions of intelligence as an approach to understanding female representation in technology and engineering education.
(TERG, 2019-06)
Gender representation in technology and engineering education is generally not equitable with females being underrepresented in many areas (e.g. Sultan, Axell, & Hallström, 2018; Yoder, 2017). While there are many perspectives ...
