Daniel Laumann; Paul Schlummer; Adrian Abazi; Rasmus Borkamp; Jonas Lauströer; Wolfram Pernice; Carsten Schuck; Reinhard Schulz-Schaeffer; Stefan Heusler – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
For nearly two decades, augmented reality (AR) has found diverse applications in education, particularly in science education, where its efficacy has been supported by relevant theories and many empirical studies. However, previous studies have revealed the following research deficit: While AR technology appears to influence learning-related…

Ajay Shankar Tiwari; Kaushal Kumar Bhagat – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
This study examined the impact of augmented reality (AR) on engineering education, focusing on spatial visualisation skills and cognitive load in an engineering drawing course. The research is based on cognitive load theory and spatial visualisation frameworks. It compares three AR methods--marker-based (MBAR), markerless (MLAR) and Web-based…

Jian, Yu-Cin – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
This study used eye-movement tracking to investigate how students engage with the learning process of reading science articles with or without hands-on manipulation of a pulley system and their influences on learning outcomes. This experiment used a 2 (reading easy or difficult articles) × 2 (with or without hands-on manipulation) between-subject…

Hyland, Diarmaid; O'Shea, Ann – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2022
In this study, we conducted a survey of all tertiary level institutions in Ireland to find out how many of them use diagnostic tests, and what kind of mathematical content areas and topics appear on these tests. The information gathered provides an insight into what instructors expect students to know on entry to university and what they expect…

Weiler, Jess R.; Lomotey, Kofi – Educational Administration Quarterly, 2022
Faculty in practitioner-oriented EdD programs must continually defend the presence of rigor in their programs. The existence of rigor determines the preparedness of our educational leaders to disrupt and transform educational organizations to bring about equitable and socially just outcomes; however, perceptions of rigor by the larger community…

Wang, Bo; Ginns, Paul; Mockler, Nicole – Educational Psychology Review, 2022
Cognitive load theory's incorporation of evolutionary perspectives has generated several instructional designs based on movement, including the tracing effect, occurring when learners benefit from explicit instructions to trace out specific elements of lesson materials with the index finger. Historical descriptions of children's tracing behaviours…

Buchner, Josef; Buntins, Katja; Kerres, Michael – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Previous studies on augmented reality-enriched learning and training indicated conflicting results regarding the cognitive load involved: some authors report that AR can reduce cognitive load, others have shown that AR is perceived as cognitively demanding and can lead to poorer performance. Objectives: The aim of this study is to…

Ari, Omer; Calandra, Brendan – College Teaching, 2022
College students enrolled in a reading support course were asked to (a) read a short text, (b) listen to a second text, and (c) read + listen to a third text and answer multiple-choice comprehension questions about each text. Each condition employed a self-study format allowing for constant availability of text input and extra time to revisit text…

Ramli, Izzat Syahir Mohd; Maat, Siti Mistima; Khalid, Fariza – Cypriot Journal of Educational Sciences, 2022
Game-based learning has received increasing attention in recent years as it could help improve pupils' motivation, self-efficacy, and achievement. Technological innovations like learning analytics (LA) and GBL offer pedagogical support for teachers. GBL could significantly support pupils' learning as a learning approach compared to conventional…

Hayes, Brett K.; Stephens, Rachel G.; Lee, Michael D.; Dunn, John C.; Kaluve, Anagha; Choi-Christou, Jasmine; Cruz, Nicole – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Much recent research and theorizing in the field of reasoning has been concerned with intuitive sensitivity to logical validity, such as the logic-brightness effect, in which logically valid arguments are judged to have a "brighter" typeface than invalid arguments. We propose and test a novel signal competition account of this…
