Downton, Ann; Livy, Sharyn – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
Whilst spatial reasoning skills have been found to predict mathematical achievement, little is known about how primary (elementary) students' conceptual understanding of three-dimensional objects develops. In this article, we report a qualitative study and the impact of rich learning experiences on 48 Years 3-6 students' geometric reasoning…

Martin-SanJose, Juan-Fernando; Juan, M. -Carmen; Mollá, Ramón; Vivó, Roberto – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
Advanced displays and natural user interfaces (NUI) are a very suitable combination for developing systems to provide an enhanced and richer user experience. This combination can be appropriate in several fields and has not been extensively exploited. One of the fields that this combination is especially suitable for is education. Nowadays,…

Pan, Wen-Fu; Tu, Shih-Chun; Chien, Mei-Ying – Interactive Learning Environments, 2014
This research aims to apply a depth sensor to create a human-body-sensing context for outdoor learning paths; it is conducted by incorporating both quasi-experiment and survey to compare students' cognitive learning outcome within the context and understand students' attitudes toward the context created. The result of ANCOVA indicates that the…

Carpenter, David L. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1979
Six motion projections were presented to first graders, seventh graders, and college students (N=72) in order to determine whether children can utilize the same motion parallax information as can adults. (MP)

Mshelia, Ayuba Yabilar; Lapidus, Leah Blumberg – Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, 1990
Tests of 172 fourth grade students in Zaria, Nigeria, supported the hypotheses that non-Western subjects' difficulties in judging depth in linear pictures are a function of individual perceptual organization, and that training could improve field independence and depth perception. Discusses child-rearing practices that may increase field…

Ireson, Judith; McGurk, Harry – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1985
Malawian children and young adults displayed sensitivity to static information for depth when stimulus objects subtended equal visual angles. When the more distant object was larger but subtended a smaller visual angle than the nearer, subjects tended to base judgments on retinal size. Motion paralax information increased accuracy of judgments of…
