(EERN, 2019-05)Engineering education research has been categorised into the five research areas of ‘engineering epistemologies’, ‘engineering learning mechanisms’, ‘engineering learning systems’, engineering diversity and inclusiveness’, ... -
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 ... -
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 potential bifurcation of static and dynamic spatial cognitive processes.
(ASEE, 2016-10)Considering the widely acknowledged correlation between spatial ability and graphics based education, it is important to uncover the full remit of this association to inform pedagogical practices within the discipline. ...
