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 ...
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. ...
Engineering education research methods to determine conceptions of engineers and of engineering.
(EERN, 2019-05)
Engineering education research has been categorised into the five research areas of ‘engineering epistemologies’, ‘engineering learning mechanisms’, ‘engineering learning systems’, engineering diversity and inclusiveness’, ...
Framing the constructive alignment of design within technology subjects in general education.
(Springer, 2020-05-27)
Design is core element of general technology education internationally. While there is
a degree of contention with regards to its treatment, there is general consensus that the

An exploration into the criteria used in assessing design activities with adaptive comparative judgment in technology education.
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-08)
The use of design assignments for teaching, learning, and assessment is considered a signature of technology education. However, there are difficulties in the valid and reliable assessment of features of quality within ...
An assessment of the transparency of contemporary technology education research employing interview-based methodologies
(Springer, 2021-08-20)
A high level of transparency in reported research is critical for several reasons, such as
ensuring an acceptable level of trustworthiness and enabling replication. Transparency in
qualitative research permits the ...
The importance and usefulness of comparative judgement for education assessment.
(ResearchED, 2019-02)
While comparative judgement has now been around for a number of years, it continues to be used in a variety of new ways and across multiple subjects. Jeffrey has specific experience using comparative judgement in design ...
Investigating the role of visualisation in complex problem-solving across expertise in engineering education
(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.
