Zhdanov, Arsenii; Pyay, Anna – Physics Teacher, 2022
Mobile phones are a widely used platform for educational apps, mobile health, and a variety of chemical tests. Here, we are working on a mobile phone-based physics lab (mPhysics) that uses a mobile phone's capabilities to run simple physics experiments and demonstrations. While a mobile phone can be used to analyze magnetic and optical properties…

Joa~o Barreira; Daniel F. Arau´jo; Ricardo Soares; Christian J. Sanders; Dominik Jakob Weiss; Wilson Machado – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
The continuous advances in mass spectrometry techniques have pushed forward the frontiers of all branches of the isotope biogeochemistry field. In environmental studies, different isotope ratios as determined in different reservoirs offer the opportunity, for example, to identify pollution sources and to trace metal fluxes within the trophic web…

Odewumi, Olubunmi Michael – International Journal of Education and Development using Information and Communication Technology, 2021
Diagrams have been used for instructional purposes for many years and recent advancements permit the design of an idea by a wider range of diagrams for easy understanding. The study employed an experimental design to examine the effectiveness of computer-based concept maps (CBCM) on students' cognitive learning of colours. A quasi-experimental…

Raeisiyan, Razieh; Abdoli, Behrouz; Farsi, Alireza; Hassanlouei, Hamidollah – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of landmarks on learning basketball lay-up in beginners. Twenty-seven females (age = 20.30 ± 0.24 years, height = 164.37 ± 0.53 cm) participated in this study. They were assigned to three groups: no landmark group, colored landmark group, and black and white landmark group. All participants…

Birriel, Jennifer J.; King, Damon – Physics Teacher, 2018
Fluorescence spectra excited by laser pointers have been the subject of several papers in "TPT". These papers all describe a fluorescence phenomenon in which the reflected laser light undergoes a change in color: this color change results from the combination of some partially reflected laser light and additional colors generated by…

Hobbs, Robert – Physics Teacher, 2018
Gas emission tubes are widely used laboratory and demonstration apparatus because the line source nature of the tube produces line spectra when viewed directly through a diffraction grating. These are long and distinctly visible images of the tube, located to either side of the zeroth order at an angle determined by the wavelength. A continuous…

Spencer, Richard – School Science Review, 2018
To enable turf to be re-established quickly between football matches, grass needs to be grown strongly in a few days. As growth in plants requires light, artificial light is needed to supplement daylight, especially in winter months. This investigation concerns finding the most effective colours of light and hence seeking to test suitable lamps…

Mazumdar, Barnali; Donovan, Neila J.; Sultana, Asifa – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2020
Background: A comprehensive aphasia assessment is necessary to diagnose the type and severity of aphasia differentially and guide appropriate interventions. One component of an aphasia assessment is the picture description task (PDT), designed to probe spontaneous speech fluency and information content. Most aphasia assessments use black-and-white…

Mazzocco, Michèle M. M.; Chan, Jenny Yun-Chen; Bye, Jeffrey K.; Padrutt, Emily R.; Praus-Singh, Taylor; Lukowski, Sarah; Brown, Ethan; Olson, Rachel E. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2020
Children's spontaneous focus on numerosity (SFON) is described as an unprompted tendency that is stable across contexts. The attention to number task (AtN), an experimental forced-choice picture-matching task designed to evaluate select aspects of children's focus on numerosity, may reveal whether task materials can implicitly prompt children to…

Donmez, Ismail; Tekce, Murat; Kirmit, Serihan – Journal of Education in Science, Environment and Health, 2020
The purpose of this research is to examine the contents of the representations that students used while producing digital games in the scope of STEM education. The descriptive survey model among the other quantitative research methods has been used. Within the scope of this purpose, 300 games from the competition arranged throughout Turkey with…

Njoki, Peter N. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
A laboratory experiment has been developed to illustrate the transformation of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in water containing phosphate anions. The experiment, conducted by high school students, involved hands-on learning to synthesize and characterize Ag NPs via ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy. This was followed by a UV-vis probe of…

Bellezza, Francis S.; Elek, Jennifer K. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Three source-monitoring models were tested using the data of Bellezza, Elek, and Zhang (2016), who presented word pairs with each word in 1 of 4 locations. Given 1 word as a cue, participants had to remember the other word as well as the 2 corresponding locations. Results included (a) locations of the cue and target words were identified equally…

Colindres, Carlos A. Mejía; Peters, Stephanie – Mathematics Teacher, 2019
According to the conceptual framework for K-grade 12 statistics education introduced in the 2007 Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) report, students can be located at one of three developmental levels of statistical literacy: A, B, or C. These levels are independent of age and grade level, so, in theory,…

Bonin, Patrick; Méot, Alain; Laroche, Betty; Bugaiska, Aurélia; Perret, Cyril – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
The present study was aimed at investigating whether and how image characteristics influence written naming performance in adults. In three different sessions, participants had to quickly write down the names of pictured objects on a graphic tablet. Across sessions, the picture format was different, but the to-be-named objects were the same: There…
