May, Dominik; Morkos, Beshoy; Jackson, Andrew; Hunsu, Nathaniel J.; Ingalls, Amy; Beyette, Fred – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic forced universities to suspend face-to-face instruction, prompting a rapid transition to online education. As many lab courses transitioned online, this provided a rare window of opportunity to learn about the challenges and affordances that the online lab experiences created for students and instructors. We present results…

Marise van Zyl – Visions of Research in Music Education, 2020
This study examined the effect of a virtual reality intervention on the symptoms of music performance anxiety among university-level music majors. During the two sessions, subjects (N=12) reported anxiety levels and symptoms before and after performing a short piece or excerpt. I measured treatment (n=6) and control (n=6) groups' heart rates prior…

Huang, Wen; Roscoe, Rod D.; Craig, Scotty D.; Johnson-Glenberg, Mina C. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Virtual reality (VR) has a high potential to facilitate education. However, the design of many VR learning applications was criticized for lacking the guidance of explicit and appropriate learning theories. To advance the use of VR in effective instruction, this study proposed a model that extended the cognitive-affective theory of learning with…

Starr, Christine R.; Anderson, Barrett R.; Green, Katherine A. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2019
Women are less likely to choose physical Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (pSTEM) majors, partly because a lack of role models makes it hard for women to imagine themselves as successful in those fields. Possible self-interventions can help people imagine themselves having a successful future. Using social cognitive theory and…

Chini, Jacquelyn J.; Madsen, Adrian; Gire, Elizabeth; Rebello, N. Sanjay; Puntambekar, Sadhana – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2012
Recent research results have failed to support the conventionally held belief that students learn physics best from hands-on experiences with physical equipment. Rather, studies have found that students who perform similar experiments with computer simulations perform as well or better on measures of conceptual understanding than their peers who…
