Alex Barrett; Nuodi Zhang; Shiyao Wei – Educational Psychology Review, 2025
Immersive learning is predominantly constrained to technology-based interventions but has the potential for more diverse applications. This study reports on an experiment investigating the learning affordances of psychological immersion evoked by narrative absorption. A total of 228 participants were randomly assigned to one of three forms of…

Yafeng Pan; Ning Hao; Ning Liu; Yijie Zhao; Xiaojun Cheng; Yixuan Ku; Yi Hu – npj Science of Learning, 2023
It is said that our species use mnemonics -- that "magic of memorization" -- to engrave an enormous amount of information in the brain. Yet, it is unclear how mnemonics affect memory and what the neural underpinnings are. In this electroencephalography study, we examined the hypotheses whether mnemonic training improved…

Sujin Song; Sanghyun Kim – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2024
This study explores the educational meaning of Songdok in traditional Korean education. Songdok refers to the act of memorizing text completely while reading it aloud; however, in traditional Korean education, it used to symbolize 'learning' itself. Historically, Songdok was regarded in extreme terms: being criticized as low-level memorization or…

Bertram Opitz; Veit Kubik – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2024
Benefits of self-testing for learning have been consistently shown for simple materials such as word lists learned by rote memorization. Considerably less evidence for such benefits exists for complex, more educationally relevant materials and its application to new situations. The present study explores the mechanisms underlying this transfer. To…

Laursen, Skylar J.; Fiacconi, Chris M. – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Despite the naïve intuition that individuals' confidence in their future memory performance should increase with longer self-paced study time, it is commonly observed that the relation between invested study time and memory predictions (i.e., judgments of learning (JOLs)) is negative. This negative relation has been suggested to reflect use of the…

D. Gregory Springer; Brian A. Silvey; Nickolas Doshier; Faith Hall – Journal of Research in Music Education, 2024
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of conductor score use (conducting with a musical score vs. conducting without a score) on observers' perceptions of conductors. We also examined how those effects may differ when viewed from the ensemble perspective compared to the audience perspective. Participants (N = 126) were collegiate…

Dave Hewitt – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2024
The author has been influenced throughout his time in mathematics education by the work of Caleb Gattegno. Gattegno made extensive use of the word awareness whereas much educational literature from a psychological perspective talks about memory (for example, Justicia-Galiano, MartÌn-Puga, Linares & Pelegrina, 2017). This has, amongst other…

Jiyoun Kim; Chia-Wen Chen; Yi-Jhen Wu – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2024
Learning strategies have been recognized as important predictors of mathematical achievement. In recent studies, it has been found that Asian students use combined learning strategies, primarily including metacognitive strategies, rather than rote memorization. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is only one prior study including South…

Lambert, Rachel; Harriss, Edmund – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
Within educational research, dyslexia and other disabilities are typically conceptualized as deficits. The theory of neurodiversity encourages researchers to conceptualize cognitive differences as natural forms of human diversity with unique sets of challenges and strengths. Using neurodiversity as our theoretical framework, we analyze the…

Amaefule, Chimezie O.; Breitwieser, Jasmin; Biedermann, Daniel; Nobbe, Lea; Drachsler, Hendrik; Brod, Garvin – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
Educational applications (apps) offer opportunities for designing learning activities children enjoy and benefit from. We redesigned a typical mobile learning activity to make it more enjoyable and useful for children. Relying on the technology acceptance model, we investigated whether and how implementing this activity in an app can increase…

Frey, Ernst Peter – New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, 2023
Within Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), in general, and Taranaki, in particular, research on understanding experiences of individual practice for amateur adult string players has been limited. In 2021, with the aim of contributing to musical development in the Taranaki Symphony Orchestra (TSO), four adult string instrumentalists agreed to participate in…

Sergio Tirado-Olivares; Carlota López-Fernández; José Antonio González-Calero; Ramón Cózar-Gutiérrez – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
History teaching from early educational stages not only should assess the student's ability to memorise historical content, but also their ability to think historically. Traditional summative tests do not enable teachers to continuously monitor the progress of students. This study evaluates the effect in history learning of incorporating learning…

Osipenko, Lyudmila; Guseva, Victoria – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
The study aims to analyze visualization as a methodological technique used during lectures in higher educational institutions. An empirical study of visualization as a methodological technique for lectures was conducted using an online questionnaire using the Google forms service. The purpose of the questionnaire was to determine the frequency of…

Lelonkiewicz; Gary Lupyan; Whitney Mendenhall; David Moreau; Christina Schonberg; Christian K. Tamnes; Haley Vlach; Emily M. Elliott – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2025
Though verbal rehearsal is a frequently endorsed strategy for remembering short lists among adults, there is ambiguity around when children deploy it, and what circumstantial factors encourage them to rehearse. We recoded data from a recent multilab replication of a serial picture memory task in which children were observed for evidence of…

Giannou, Kyriaki; Frowd, Charlie D.; Taylor, Jason R.; Lander, Karen – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2021
Meditative mindfulness practices, promoting sustained attention and reducing mind-wandering, have been associated with improvements in cognitive abilities and memory. The present study explored whether a non-meditative practice could be successfully applied in a forensic application; specifically, whether mindfulness instructions can be embedded…
