Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cai, Su; Liu, Enrui; Yang, Yang; Liang, Jyh-Chong – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Most studies of Augmented Reality (AR) in education have considered students' learning outcomes and motivation. Previous studies have revealed that AR has the potential to help students learn abstract conceptions in mathematics. In this paper, a series of statistics and probability lessons using AR installed on tablets was designed and developed…

Exploring the Effects of Gender and Learning Styles on Computer Programming Performance: Implications for Programming Pedagogy
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lau, Wilfred W. F.; Yuen, Allan H. K. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2009
Computer programming has been taught in secondary schools for more than two decades. However, little is known about how students learn to program. From the curriculum implementation perspectives, learning style helps address the issue of learner differences, resulting in a shift from a teacher-centred approach to a learner-focused approach. This…

Literature Review for Hypermedia Study from an Individual Learning Differences Perspective.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Song, Chiann-Ru – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2002
Discusses the use of hypermedia to accommodate students' individual learning differences and to help students develop complex learning skills to acquire complex knowledge. Examines 10 research studies that investigated interaction between students' learning skills and their use of different forms of instruction. (Author/LRW)

Matching/Mismatching Revisited: An Empirical Study of Learning and Teaching Styles.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ford, Nigel; Chen, Sherry Y. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2001
Presents results of a study of postgraduate students who were asked to create Web pages using HTML in order to explore the relationship between matching and mismatching instructional presentation style (breadth-first and depth-first) with students' cognitive style (field dependence-independence) in a computer-based learning environment. Findings…

A Method of Teaching Problem-Solving to Undergraduate Engineering Students.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Lowe, Brian – British Journal of Educational Technology, 1982
Describes a method of teaching problem-solving to engineering undergraduates at Coventry (Lancaster) Polytechnic. The teaching model, which consists of a series of component activities, employs a methodological approach to problem-solving in the area of engineering design. Applications of the model to other forms of problem-solving are briefly…
