A heuristic framework of spatial ability: a review and synthesis of spatial factor literature to support its translation into STEM education.
(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 ...
