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 ... -
A conceptual framework for assessment of learning in technology classroom based assessments
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)The technology education curriculum in Ireland has gone through significant reform with the introduction of four new subject specifications at lower secondary school level. These new technology subjects were implemented ... -
Examining the replicability of contemporary technology education research
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)Discourse in psychological science concerning the replication crisis is growing, with typically cited indicators including scientific fraud, the use of questionable research practices and the failure of published effects ... -
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 ... -
Exploring the effects of immersive virtual reality environments on sensory perception of beef steaks and chocolate
(MDPI, 2021-05)Virtual reality (VR) technology is emerging as a tool for simulating different eating environments to better understand consumer sensory response to food. This research explored the impact of different environmental contexts ... -
First results from the REAL-time transient acquisition backend (REALTA) at the Irish LOFAR station
(ESO/EDP Sciences, 2021-10-28)Modern radio interferometers such as the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) are capable of producing data at hundreds of gigabits to terabits per second. This high data rate makes the analysis of radio data cumbersome and ... -
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 inclusion of design in some form is important, ... -
Green IoT for eco-friendly and sustainable smart cities: future directions and opportunities
(Springer, 2021-08-17)The development of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology and their integration in smart cities have changed the way we work and live, and enriched our society. However, IoT technologies present several challenges such ... -
Introducing PyCross: PyCloudy rendering of shape software for pseudo 3D ionisation modelling of nebulae.
(Elsevier, 2020-04-29)Research into the processes of photoionised nebulae plays a significant part in our understanding of stellar evolution. It is extremely difficult to visually represent or model ionised nebula, requiring astronomers to ... -
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 ... -
The motivations and perceptions of practicing teachers undertaking technology education research: a work in progress report from an exploratory case study
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)Technology education (TE) is a transient area of study. Few other subject areas require such levels of up-skilling similar to that of technology teachers in order for them to stay current and aligned with the developments ... -
The need to consider the predictive capacity of intelligence and its malleability within design and technology education research.
(Springer, 2020-05-14)General intelligence is a fundamental human capacity with significant educational implications. However, it is often not considered in educational research despite substantial evidence illustrating its association with ... -
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. ... -
OPCNN-FAKE: Optimized convolutional neural network for fake news detection
(IEEE, 2021-09-14)Recently, there is a rapid and wide increase in fake news, de ned as provably incorrect information spread with the goal of fraud. The spread of this type of misinformation is a severe danger to social cohesiveness and ... -
Polarimetry and spectroscopy of the 'oxygen flaring' DQ Herculis-like nova: V5668 Sagittarii (2015).
(EDP Sciences, 2018-09-05)Context. Classical novae are eruptions on the surface of a white dwarf in a binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric shell of gas and dust around the system. The ... -
Two new Nova Shells associated with V4362 Sagittarii and DO Aquilae
(Oxford Academic, 2020-09)A classical nova is an eruption on the surface of a white dwarf in an accreting binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric shell. The shaping mechanisms of nova shells ... -
Using the Agile software development lifecycle to develop a standalone application for generating colour magnitude diagrams.
(Elsevier, 2019-07)Virtual observatories allow the means by which an astronomer is able to discover, access, and process data seamlessly, regardless of its physical location. However, steep learning curves are often required to become ...
