    Balancing curriculum intent with expected student responses to designerly tasks. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall (Design and Technology Education: An International Journal., 2018-02)
    Design activities form an extensive part of design and technology education with a link being posited within the pertinent literature between the cognitive activity of learning and the cognitive activity of design. It ...

    Integrating learners into the assessment process using adaptive comparative judgement with an ipsative approach of identifying competence based gains relative to student ability levels. 

    Seery, Niall; Buckley, Jeffrey; Delahunty, Thomas; Canty, Donal (Springer, 2018)
    Educational assessment has profound effects on the nature and depth of learning that students engage in. Typically there are two core types discussed within the pertinent literature; criterion and norm referenced assessment. ...

    Heuristics and CAD modelling: an examination of student behaviour during problem solving episodes within CAD modelling activities. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal (Springer, 2018)
    Design activities typically involve and culminate in the creation of models representative of new ideas and conceptions. The format is often dictated by the specific discipline, with ideas in design and technology education ...

    A heuristic framework of spatial ability: a review and synthesis of spatial factor literature to support its translation into STEM education. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal (Springer, 2018)
    An abundance of empirical evidence exists identifying a significant correlation between spatial ability and educational performance particularly in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Despite this ...

    Visualization, inductive reasoning, and memory span as components of fluid intelligence: implications for technology education. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal; Gumaelius, Lena (Elsevier, 2018)
    The philosophy and epistemology of technology education are relatively unique as the subject largely focusses on acquiring task specific relevant knowledge rather than having an explicit epistemological discipline boundary. ...

    Spatial cognition in engineering education: developing a spatial ability framework to support the translation of theory into practice. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal (Taylor & Francis Online, 2019)
    A substantial degree of empirical evidence has illustrated the correlation between spatial skills and performance in engineering education. This evidence has been foundational in the construction of educational interventions ...
