Integrating assessment and design activity in engineering education: a proposed synthesis of adaptive comparative judgement and the CDIO framework
(ASEE, 2018)
One of the leading frameworks in engineering education specifically associated with design based competencies is the CDIO framework. This has been incorporated internationally into many institutions offering engineering ...
Operationalising pedagogical content knowledge research in technology education: considerations for methodological approaches to exploring enacted practice.
(BERA, 2019-08)
Like many areas of curricula internationally, technology education has encountered difficulties in
achieving continuity between the rhetoric of prevailing policy and the reality of enacted practices. In
technology ...
The importance of supporting technological knowledge in post-primary education: a cohort study.
(Routledge, 2019)
ABSTRACT
Background: Substantial research highlights the differences between
scientific and technological knowledge. Considering that learning is
heavily focused on the acquisition of knowledge, it is important to
examine ...
Spatial working memory and neural efficiency in mental rotations: an insight from pupillometry.
(ASEE, 2018-05)
Spatial ability, particularly the cognitive capacity for mental rotations, is a critical component of human cognition. Proficiency with mental rotation tasks is linked with educational performance in various Science, ...
Reconceptualising PCK research in D&T education: proposing a methodological framework to investigate enacted practice.
(Springer, 2019)
Since first conceived, the concept of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has
attracted much attention. Despite being lauded by educationalists as the unique knowledge
base of teachers, research on the concept over the ...
Arbeta med komparativ bedömning (Working with comparative assessment).
(Skola och Samhälle, 2018-04-26)
Comparative assessment has been found to provide high reliability when evaluating open data and has received a lot of positive attention in, for example, Ireland, the UK, the US and Belgium. There are so far quite a few ...
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 ...
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. ...
