de Mooij, Susanne M. M.; Raijmakers, Maartje E. J.; Dumontheil, Iroise; Kirkham, Natasha Z.; van de Maas, Han L. J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
While response time and accuracy indicate overall performance, their value in uncovering cognitive processes, underlying learning, is limited. A promising online measure, designed to track decision-making, is computer mouse tracking, where mouse attraction towards different locations may reflect the consideration of alternative response options.…

Leeman, M. Blanche; Kupczynski, Lori; Aguilar, Sunddip; Groff, Shannon L. – Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
The profession of Occupational Therapy has over a 100-year history embracing technology. The relationship of technology and occupational therapy remains prevalent as a foundational skill taught in the occupational therapy curriculum. To stay current with emerging technology, a course written for master level occupational therapy students included…

Heuer, Herbert; Hegele, Mathias – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, 2010
Mechanical tools are transparent in the sense that their input-output relations can be derived from their perceptible characteristics. Modern technology creates more and more tools that lack mechanical transparency, such as in the control of the position of a cursor by means of a computer mouse or some other input device. We inquired whether an…

Lane, Alison E.; Ziviani, Jenny M. – Computers & Education, 2010
Effective use of computers in education for children requires consideration of individual and developmental characteristics of users. There is limited empirical evidence, however, to guide educational programming when it comes to children and their acquisition of computing skills. This paper reports on the influence of previous experience and…

Korat, Ofra; Shamir, Adina – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2012
We examine the effect of direct and indirect teaching of vocabulary and word reading on pre-kindergarten and kindergarten children following use of an electronic storybook (e-book). The children in each age group were randomly assigned to an intervention group which read the e-book or to a control group which was afforded the regular school…

Korat, Ofra – Computers & Education, 2010
The effect of reading an electronic storybook (e-book) on Israeli children's language and literacy was examined in kindergarten children (N = 40; age 5:2-6:3) compared to first graders (N = 50; age 6:3-7:4). The children in each age group were randomly assigned to two groups: an intervention group which read the e-book five times and a control…

Panagiotakopoulos, Chris; Sarris, Menelaos – Themes in Science and Technology Education, 2008
This study focuses on the use of computers in the field of education. It reports a series of experimental mouse move and click tasks on constant and moving stimuli. These experiments attempt to explore the efficiency with which individuals of different skill level and age group perform using a mouse. Differences in performance between high-skill…

Lancaster, Paula E.; Schumaker, Jean B.; Lancaster, Sean J. C.; Deshler, Donald D. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2009
Students with disabilities must meet many testing demands, given the current emphasis on accountability and state competency testing. The purpose of this project was to develop and field test a computerized program to teach the Test-Taking Strategy (Hughes, Schumaker, Deshler, & Mercer, 1988) to secondary-level students with disabilities. The…
