    Agendas, influences, and capability: perspectives on practice in design and technology education. 

    Doyle, Andrew; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal; Buckley, Jeffrey (Springer, 2019)
    A philosophical shift in policy now situates the development of technological capability as the focus of Irish technology education. Internationally, the effectiveness of curricular reform in the discipline has previously ...

    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 ...

    Spatial working memory and neural efficiency in mental rotations: an insight from pupillometry. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Canty, Donal; White, David; Seery, Niall; Campbell, Mark (ASEE, 2018-05)
    Spatial ability, particularly the cognitive capacity for mental rotations, is a critical component of human cognition. Proficiency with mental rotation tasks is linked with educational performance in various Science, ...
    Thumbnail

    An exploratory analysis into the relationships between spatial factors, domain-free general capacities and general fluid intelligence. 

    Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal (ASEE, 2017)
    The inception of psychometric research concerning individual differences in cognition was grounded in explaining and enhancing performance in education (Spearman, 1904). This work established the construct of a single ...

    Illustrating educational development through ipsative performance in design based education. 

    Seery, Niall; Delahunty, Thomas; Canty, Donal; Buckley, Jeffrey (ASEE, 2017)
    The Technology subject in general post-primary education is unique based on its conception and treatment of knowledge. The task specific utility of knowledge is emphasised and at the same time, in reflection of the breadth ...

    A proposed research agenda for investigating the nature of designerly thinking in action. 

    Phelan, Joseph; Buckley, Jeffrey; Canty, Donal; Seery, Niall (ASEE, 2017)
    The intent of this paper is to discuss the nature of Design and Technology (D&T) education and arising from that the potential contribution of cognitive psychology to further understanding of designerly thinking in action. ...
