Spatial Task Solving on Tablets: Analysing Mental and Physical Rotation Processes of 12-13-Year Olds
Peer reviewed
Direct linkWetzel, Stefanie; Bertel, Sven; Montag, Michael; Zander, Steffi – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
Spatial skill assessment and training are promising fields of application for tablets, as touch-based interaction can prime and support mental transformations of spatial knowledge. We report on a study with 49 secondary school students who used our iPad app to solve mental and physical rotation tasks. During physical rotation, students were able…

Kuder, Brittany N.; Hojnoski, Robin L. – Young Exceptional Children, 2018
Environmental modifications to the block area are important to promote children's early spatial learning experiences. It is not enough just to include block materials in the classroom. Sarama and Clements (2009) have proposed that children's free play with novel math-related activities rarely facilitates the intended educational concepts without…

Executive function (EF) describes a complex set of skills, including flexible attention, inhibitory control, and working memory, that coordinate to achieve behavioral regulation. Visuospatial skills (VS) describe the capacity to visually perceive and understand spatial relationships among objects. Emerging research suggests VS skills are…

Ling, Teo-Sieak; Jiar, Yeo-Kee – International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education, 2017
Deficit in working memory is common among young children across multiple abilities. Teachers have pointed to poor memory as one contributing factor to inattentiveness and short attention spans as well as some behavioural problems among students. This study aimed to explore the relationship among working memory, externalizing and internalizing…

Rafferty, Anna N., Ed.; Whitehill, Jacob, Ed.; Romero, Cristobal, Ed.; Cavalli-Sforza, Violetta, Ed. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
The 13th iteration of the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM 2020) was originally arranged to take place in Ifrane, Morocco. Due to the SARS-CoV-2 (coronavirus) epidemic, EDM 2020, as well as most other academic conferences in 2020, had to be changed to a purely online format. To facilitate efficient transmission of…

James, Abigail Norfleet – Inquiry, 2007
One reason students give for attending a community college is that the mathematics requirements appear to be less rigorous. Many of the author's students have told her that they have chosen to seek an associate's degree first because they do not feel confident that they could successfully complete the mathematics requirement at a four-year…
