Measurement is significant in geospatial thinking research. This study evaluated the geospatial thinking of pre-service geography teachers through an orienteering design tasks and subjective evaluation methods. Moreover, it analyzed their level of geospatial thinking, difficulty of evaluation indicators and rater severity with the Many-Faceted…

Ilyse Resnick; Elizabeth Louise Chapman; Thomas F. Shipley – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Visual representations of data are widely used for communication and understanding, particularly in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). However, despite their importance, many people have difficulty understanding data-based visualizations. This work presents a series of three studies that examine how understanding time-based…

Antony, James W.; Bennion, Kelly A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Semantic similarity between stimuli can lead to false memories and can also potentially cause retroactive interference (RI) for veridical memories. Here, participants first learned spatial locations for "critical" words that reliably produce false memories in the Deese-Roediger-McDermott paradigm. Next, participants centrally viewed…

A deeper understanding of what factors influence metacognition has never become more pressing than in today's digital era, in which information flows constantly and quickly. To this end, the present study explored the role of culture in mediating how individuals experience metacognitive phenomena. For this purpose, the International Group on…

One crucial function of a classroom, and a school more generally, is to prepare students for future learning. Students should have the capacity to learn new information and to acquire new skills. This ability to "learn" is a core competency in our rapidly changing world. But how do we measure ability to learn? And how can we measure how…

Parama Khaewphuang; Prasart Nuangchalerm – Journal of Practical Studies in Education, 2025
This study aims to investigate and validate the components and indicators of instructional design competence for Thai preservice teachers. The research began with a synthesis of relevant concepts and theories through a comprehensive literature review and expert interviews, followed by the development of a questionnaire for data collection. The…

Alyami, Hanan; Bryan, Lynn – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
Integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (iSTEM) education allow learners to utilize multiple disciplinary perspectives. However, the discipline of mathematics remains underrepresented in iSTEM curriculum. To explore the nature of mathematical thinking with an iSTEM curricular approach that emphasizes mathematics, we…

Dimmel, Justin K.; Pandiscio, Eric A.; Bock, Camden; Reedman, Emma – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
We report the design of an analog technology, what we refer to as a SunRule, that uses sunlight to model multiplication. Physical models that explore multiplication are fixtures in elementary mathematics classrooms. Our interest in physical models of multiplication was driven by an overarching design problem: How could a physical tool realize a…

Kuzu, Çigdem Inci; Uras, Muhammed Celal – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2018
OECD-PISA which evaluates the education quality of Europe focused on mathematics, and Turkey was ranked 50 among 72 countries. When the mathematics literacy was analyzed in terms of years, it is seen that the performance of the students in Turkey in PISA 2015 was lower compared to PISA 2009 and PISA 2012. This shows that students have difficulty…

Wai, Jonathan; Uttal, David H. – American Enterprise Institute, 2018
In schools today, tests and curricula are primarily suited to the types of students who excel in mathematics and verbal reasoning. The missing factor in testing and education policy is the measurement, selection, and talent development of students with strengths in spatial reasoning. Spatial reasoning is defined as "the ability to generate,…

Selby, Christina – PRIMUS, 2016
Linear algebra students are typically introduced to the problem of how to convert from one coordinate system to another in a very abstract way. Often, two bases for a given vector space are provided, and students are taught how to determine a transition matrix to be used for changing coordinates. If students are successful in memorizing this…

Diede, Nathaniel T.; Bugg, Julie M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Classic theories of cognitive control conceptualized controlled processes as slow, strategic, and willful, with automatic processes being fast and effortless. The context-specific proportion compatibility (CSPC) effect, the reduction in the compatibility effect in a context (e.g., location) associated with a high relative to low likelihood of…

Shin, Shin-Shing – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2016
Students attending object-oriented analysis and design (OOAD) courses typically encounter difficulties transitioning from requirements analysis to logical design and then to physical design. Concept maps have been widely used in studies of user learning. The study reported here, based on the relationship of concept maps to learning theory and…

Auspurg, Katrin; Jäckle, Annette – Sociological Methods & Research, 2017
To measure what determines people's attitudes, definitions, or decisions, surveys increasingly ask respondents to judge vignettes. A vignette typically describes a hypothetical situation or object as having various attributes (dimensions). In factorial surveys, the values (levels) of dimensions are experimentally varied, so that their impact on…

Rogers, John – Language Awareness, 2017
Recent years have witnessed a strong and increasing interest in the incidental learning of second language grammar. While much of this research has focused on the acquisition of second language word order or noun-determiner systems, relatively fewer studies have examined the learning of second language morphology. Results of studies that have…
