An investigation into problem solving approaches adopted during graphical reasoning episodes.
(PATT2016, 2016-08)
A core aim of contemporary design and technology education is the development of transferable and
robust problem solving skills. Graphical education is a critical component in achieving this aim as
it espouses to enhance ...
Inducting ITE students in assessment practices through the use of comparative judgement.
(Technology Education Research Group, 2019-06)
A new curricular framework, presented by the Department of Education and Skills (DES), (2015), implements an assessment strategy that has changed from a predominantly summative to a more formative integrated approach. With ...
Spatial cognition in engineering education: developing a spatial ability framework to support the translation of theory into practice.
(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 ...
The validity and reliability of online testing for the assessment of spatial ability.
(ASEE, 2016-10)
The assessment of spatial skills offers significant insight into cognitive capacities associated
with disciplines such as graphics, engineering and design. The operationalization of this
assessment is typically seen in ...
Developing a methodological approach to measure cognitive load during complex problem solving.
(Technology Education Research Group, 2019-06)
Problem solving is an important element of engineering and technology disciplines and spatial
ability contributes to learners’ success in problem solving in these areas (Wai, et al., 2009). As
excessive cognitive load ...
Visualizing success: investigating the relationship between ability and self-efficacy in the domain of visual processing.
(ASEE, 2016-01)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the spatial reasoning capacities and related selfefficacy
beliefs of student teachers. In recent years self-efficacy has been a focal point for those
investigating various modes ...
Blending immersive and educational technologies to inform sustainability and diversification of workforce training through machine interface learning using sterilization technologies as model - quo vadis?
(2019-06)
The healthcare products market is a diverse market supplying critical care products ranging from pharmaceutical products to biologics to medical devices. The regulation and best practices associated with the manufacture ...
Illustrating educational development through ipsative performance in design based education.
(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 ...
Visualization, inductive reasoning, and memory span as components of fluid intelligence: implications for technology education.
(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. ...
Developing a spatial ability framework to support spatial ability research in engineering education.
(REES, 2015-08)
The association between high levels of spatial cognition and success
in a number of engineering and technological fields is widely acknowledged
within the pertinent literature. There is a now a need for further investigation ...
