Direct linkMerve Basdogan; Ceren Gokmen; Ibrahim Akdilek – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2025
This study examines the pedagogical decision-making of teacher candidates in virtual reality (VR) environments, focusing on instructional strategies, spatial interactions, and associated challenges. Using a descriptive phenomenological approach, class recordings and debriefing interviews with five U.S.-based teacher candidates were analyzed, and…

Kristin Herman; Miguel Ramlatchan; Ross Herman – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2024
Over the past decade, geospatial technologies have emerged as a tool for developing spatial reasoning and cognitive processes. While the foundational Learning to Think Spatially report from the National Research Center (2006) launched research into the use of geospatial technologies in isolation, more recently, cloud-based simulation software have…

Baumgartner, Emily; Ferdig, Richard E.; Gandolfi, Enrico – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate how the consumption and production of extended reality (XR) video content impacted elementary student spatial reasoning skills. Third- and fourth-grade elementary students (aged 8 to 11) were given a four-week intervention in which they first consumed virtual reality (VR) video for two weeks. During the…
