Al-Ahmadi, Fatheya; Oraif, Fatima – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2009
Working memory capacity is now well established as a rate determining factor in much learning and assessment, especially in the sciences. Most of the research has focussed on performance in tests and examinations in subject areas. This paper outlines some exploratory work in which other outcomes are related to working memory capacity. Confidence…
