Cakmak, Yusuf Ozgur; Daniel, Ben Kei; Hammer, Niels; Yilmaz, Onur; Irmak, Erdem Can; Khwaounjoo, Prashanna – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
The perception of body ownership creates a sense of embodiment, which can be a powerful learning tool. Embodied learning can occur by watching an individual's body movement and also via human-computer interactions, such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). In this article, we designed and implemented a novel virtual body-ownership…

Chiphambo, Shakespear Maliketi; Feza, Nosisi Nellie – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
Research reveals that many mathematics teachers find it difficult to stimulate learners' interest in learning geometry. One major reason suggested is that geometric concepts are not well conceptualised and comprehended by both learners and teachers. The study explored learners' views on how polygon pieces and dictionary mediate learning of…

Somyürek, Sibel; Brusilovsky, Peter; Guerra, Julio – Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning, 2020
Research has demonstrated that people generally think both their knowledge and performance levels are greater than they are. Although several studies have suggested that knowledge and progress visualization offered by open learner modeling (OLM) technology might influence students' self-awareness in a positive way, insufficient evidence exists to…

Bogomolova, Katerina; Hierck, Beerend P.; van der Hage, Jos A.; Hovius, Steven E. R. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Visual-spatial abilities are considered a successful predictor in anatomy learning. Previous research suggest that visual-spatial abilities can be trained, and the magnitude of improvement can be affected by initial levels of spatial skills. This case-control study aimed to evaluate (1) the impact of an extra-curricular anatomy dissection course…

Alves, Francisco Regis Vieira; Vieira, Renata Passos Machado; Catarino, Paula Maria Machado Cruz – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2020
In this work, recurrent and linear sequences are studied, exploring the teaching of these numbers with the aid of a computational resource, known as Google Colab. Initially, a brief historical exploration inherent to these sequences is carried out, as well as the construction of the characteristic equation of each one. Thus, their respective roots…

Kok, Petrus Jacobus – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
This research focused on first-year university students' visuospatial cognition in terms of producing three-dimensional (3D) representations of objects from two-dimensional (2D) views. The research was important since students often had difficulty with 2D to 3D transition activities. A synthesis from the literature established a 2D to 3D…

Santos de Lacerda, Clara Maria – Geography Teacher, 2020
Models are an important tool for geography teaching, as they can be used to represent features of human and/ or physical systems. In addition, they enable the student to identify with the demonstrated reality, since they work with iconic images and symbols specific to each culture, used to represent the elements contained in the models (da Silva…

Epler-Ruths, Colleen M.; McDonald, Scott; Pallant, Amy; Lee, Hee-Sun – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2020
This article represents the findings from the qualitative portion of a mixed methods study that investigated the impact of middle school students' spatial skills on their plate tectonics learning while using a computer visualization. Higher spatial skills have been linked to higher STEM achievement, while use of computer visualizations has mixed…

Demitriadou, Eleni; Stavroulia, Kalliopi-Evangelia; Lanitis, Andreas – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Primary school students often find it difficult to understand the differences between two dimensional and three-dimensional geometric shapes. Taking advantage of the ability of virtual and augmented reality to visualize 3D objects, we investigate the potential of using virtual and augmented reality technologies for teaching the lesson of geometric…

Lyniesha Chanell Wright – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Effectively mastering organic chemistry means having the ability to recognize structural patterns, identify properties or behaviors as a result of patterns, manipulate and transform representations, and predict future outcomes. Often students rely on rote memorization of seemingly disconnected information instead of developing a sound…

Sun, Meng; Wang, Minhong; Wegerif, Rupert – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Creativity is increasingly considered to be an important goal of education. While creativity can be influenced by many noncognitive factors (eg, personality and motivation), creative thinking remains the most important source of creativity. Creative thinking combines several cognitive processes leading to the generation and selection of new and…

Alves, Francisco Regis Vieira; Barros, Francisco Evamar – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2019
The study and interest of figurate numbers can be observed even in ancient Greece. On the other hand, it becomes very important the historical understanding about an evolutionary process and the particular generalization of such 2D, 3D and m-D figurate numbers and they remain the interest of current scientific investigations. On the other hand, in…

Emery, Patrick; Yezierski, Ellen J.; Page, Richard C. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2019
Visualizations are useful tools for helping students to understand chemistry concepts at the particulate level. A classroom activity was developed based on learning theory and evidence-based practices, combining protein visualization with thermodynamic parameters from differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) data analysis. Coding of student…
