Chen, Tan-I; Lin, Shih-Kai; Chung, Hung-Chang – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2023
The combination of education and robots is becoming an increasingly important issue. Although researchers have conducted some studies on educational robotics in STEM education at the undergraduate level, no research examined the effects of gamified educational robotics on participants' motivation and creativity. Therefore, this study examines the…

Sally P. W. Wu; Martina A. Rau – Grantee Submission, 2019
Recent research suggests that drawing activities can help students learn concepts in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. In particular, drawing activities, which mimic the practices of STEM professionals, can help students engage with visual-spatial content. However, prior work has also shown that students…

Bennett, Arthur Lee, Jr. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
As an educational accommodation, extended time on standardized tests has long been regarded as the gold standard in many elementary, middle, high school, and even college settings. However, research suggests that extended time may have little effect on students' overall performance on standardized tests. Although many researchers have reported…

Kozlov, Michail D.; Buder, Jurgen; Thiemann, Daniel – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2018
The present study aims to empiricaly demonstrate the viability and benefits of an awareness-based approach to diversify knowledge between potential learning partners. Groups of four learners studied lesson material on biology. After a knowledge test, the groups were to form collaborative learning dyads. Based on the test, a novel knowledge…

Zarzour, Hafed; Sellami, Mokhtar – Interactive Learning Environments, 2018
In this study, a linked data-based annotation approach is proposed. A learning system has been developed based on the approach by providing an annotating function, a linked data enrichment function, a sharing function and faceted search function. To evaluate the effectiveness of this innovative approach, an experiment was carried out in which two…

Weinkauff Duranso, Christine M. – ProQuest LLC, 2017
There is evidence that participating in physical exercise reduces stress and the risk of many physical maladies. Exercise is also correlated with higher levels of approach motivation, or a tendency to approach challenge as an opportunity for growth or improvement instead of an opportunity for failure. To date, most research on this relationship…

Cane, James E.; Ferguson, Heather J.; Apperly, Ian A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Research has demonstrated a link between perspective taking and working memory. Here we used eye tracking to examine the time course with which working memory load (WML) influences perspective-taking ability in a referential communication task and how motivation to take another's perspective modulates these effects. In Experiment 1, where there…
