F. Paul Wonsavage; Samuel Otten; Amber G. Candela; Zandra de Araujo – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2025
Classroom observations are an integral part of qualitative educational research. Traditionally, classroom observations have been done in-person, with one or more researchers being physically present in a classroom to observe and take field notes. With the proliferation of video technology, researchers are now able to conduct classroom observations…

Aaron Hogue; Nicole Porter; Molly Bobek; Alexandra MacLean; Lila Bruynesteyn; Amanda Jensen-Doss; Sarah Dauber; Craig E. Henderson – Administration and Policy in Mental Health and Mental Health Services Research, 2022
A foundational strategy to promote implementation of evidence-based interventions (EBIs) is providing EBI training to therapists. This study tested an online training system in which therapists practiced observational coding of mock video vignettes demonstrating family therapy techniques for adolescent behavior problems. The study compared…

McCord, Rachel E.; Matusovich, Holly M. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2019
Background: The use of metacognition is critical to learning, especially in fields such as engineering that involve problem-solving and difficult conceptual material. Due to limitations with current methodological approaches, new methods are needed to investigate engineering students' metacognitive engagement in learning situations that are…

Parkin, Johanna – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Although a great deal of research exists regarding various components of the Writing-Based Practice along with best practice of writing instruction, the research that does exist only examines how writing instruction impacts writing. This research study, however, examined whether there is a potential connection between a writing immersion program,…

Goldin-Meadow, Susan; Namboodiripad, Savithry; Mylander, Carolyn; Özyürek, Asli; Sancar, Burcu – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2015
Deaf children whose hearing losses prevent them from accessing spoken language and whose hearing parents have not exposed them to sign language develop gesture systems, called "homesigns", which have many of the properties of natural language--the so-called resilient properties of language. We explored the resilience of structure built…

Foster, Tanina S. – ProQuest LLC, 2014
Introduction: Observational research using the thin slice technique has been routinely incorporated in observational research methods, however there is limited evidence supporting use of this technique compared to full interaction coding. The purpose of this study was to determine if this technique could be reliability coded, if ratings are…

Gorantla, Siva Kumar – ProQuest LLC, 2012
The context for this work is two-agent team decision systems. An "agent" is an intelligent entity that can measure some aspect of its environment, process information and possibly influence the environment through its action. In a collaborative two-agent team decision system, the agents can be coupled by noisy or noiseless interactions…

Magnier, Cecile; Thomann, Guillaume; Villeneuve, Francois – Assistive Technology, 2012
This article aims to identify the difficulties that may arise when designing assistive devices for disabled children. Seventeen design projects involving disabled children, engineering students, and special schools were analysed. A content analysis of the design reports was performed. For this purpose, a coding scheme was built based on a review…

Rusby, Julie C.; Crowley, Ryann; Sprague, Jeffrey; Biglan, Anthony – Psychology in the Schools, 2011
This article describes the use of an observation system to measure middle school staff practices, environment characteristics, and student behavior in the school common areas. Data were collected at baseline from 18 middle schools participating in a randomized controlled trial of school-wide Positive Behavior Support. The observations were…

Roberts, William L. – 1993
Although videotape is the preferred method for recording behavior, there are many natural settings in which it is impractical or too intrusive. The ability to collect data in such settings and in real time has been enhanced by the advent of light, powerful laptop computers. This poster (with paper) describes a set of eight programs (developed in…
