Outcome analyses of educational interventions: a case study of the Swedish “Boost of Technology” intervention.
(Springer, 2018)
In Sweden, there have been multiple large scale interventions to support compulsory school
teachers generally and within specific subjects. Due to the costs associated with such interventions it is critical that interim ...
Considering the relationship between research and practice in technology education: a perspective on future research endeavours.
(Design and Technology Association, 2019-07)
Technology subjects are a relatively recent addition to the discipline offerings at postprimary level, and have a short but interesting history in terms of associated educational
research. In this paper, an overview of ...
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, ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Investigating the use of spatial reasoning strategies in geometric problem solving.
(Springer, 2019)
A core aim of contemporary science, technology, engineering, and mathematics
(STEM) education is the development of robust problem-solving skills. This can be
achieved by fostering both discipline knowledge expertise and ...
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. ...
