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 ...
Heuristics and CAD modelling: an examination of student behaviour during problem solving episodes within CAD modelling activities.
(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 ...
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 ...
Exploring the prototypical definitions of intelligent engineers held by Irish and Swedish higher education engineering students
(SAGE, 2021-03-12)
Males are generally overrepresented in higher education engineering. However, the
magnitude of this variance differs between countries and engineering fields. Evidence
associated with the field-specific ability beliefs ...
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 ...
A novel mixed methods approach to synthesize EDA data with behavioral data to gain educational insight
(MDPI, 2020-11-30)
Whilst investigating student performance in design and arithmetic tasks, as well as during
exams, electrodermal activity (EDA)-based sensors have been used in attempts to understand
cognitive function and cognitive load. ...
