(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, ...
On intelligence in technology education: towards redefining technological capability.
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2018)
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 ...
Arbeta med komparativ bedömning (Working with comparative assessment).
(Skola och Samhälle, 2018-04-26)
Comparative assessment has been found to provide high reliability when evaluating open data and has received a lot of positive attention in, for example, Ireland, the UK, the US and Belgium. There are so far quite a few ...
Investigating the role of spatial ability as a factor of human intelligence in technology education: towards a casual theory of the relationship between spatial ability and STEM education.
(KTH Royal Institute of Technology., 2018)
Education is a particularly complex discipline due to the numerous variables which impact on teaching and learning. Due to the large effect of human intelligence on the variance in student educational achievement, there ...
