Cockrell, Jay; Petcovic, Heather L. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2022
Topographic maps are a common form of 3D surface elevation data represented as a 2D display. Despite their use in geoscience courses, many students find learning to effectively read and interpret these maps challenging. Here, we present a tool for teaching topographic map interpretation using 3D printed terrain. The terrain was 3D printed from a…

Singhal, Ishu; Balaji, B. S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Learning to write chemical formulas of compounds is a basic and indispensable part of understanding and studying chemistry. However, it is hard for students with visual impairment to assess and learn molecular arrangements and formulas. For the convenience of such students with special needs, it is necessary to come up with easy, comprehensive,…

Yang, Mao-Yi; Tseng, Hsien-Chun; Liu, Chiung-Hui; Tsai, Shao-Yu; Chen, Jyun-Hsiung; Chu, Yin-Hung; Li, Shao-Ti; Lee, Jian-Jr; Liao, Wen-Chieh – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Understanding the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the human skull is imperative for medical courses. However, medical students are overwhelmed by the spatial complexity of the skull. Separated polyvinyl chloride (PVC) bone models have advantages as learning tools, but they are fragile and expensive. This study aimed to reconstruct 3D-printed…

Branko, Andic; Šorgo, Andrej; Helm, Christoph; Weinhandl, Robert; Lang, Vida – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2023
Owing to its advantages such as producing durable models and easy accessibility, 3D modeling and printing (3DMP) has become increasingly popular in educational practice and research. However, the results of many studies have shown that the adoption rate of 3DMP among teachers is still low, especially in elementary schools. Therefore, research is…

Methin Intaraprasit; Piyathida Tawornparcha; Pann Veerapong; Taweetham Limpanuparb – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Experiments involving electrochemical cells are of great pedagogical value for learners of introductory chemistry. This paper discusses an improved experimental kit made from a 24-well cell culture plate and a 3D-printed scaffold. The current design focuses not only on the accuracy of the result but also on the intuitiveness of the wiring work and…

Doug Kueker; Joi Moore – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Learning to use software using screencast videos with worked examples in the corresponding practice files presents a classic split-attention problem that requires learners to mentally integrate information from the video with a target application. While there is evidence that splitting attention either temporally or spatially adversely…

Miller, Robert A.; Stenmark, Cheryl K.; van Ittersum, Kyle – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2020
Dual display desktop computers are becoming more prevalent in the home, workplace, and schools, yet there has been little research into how learning and productivity are impacted by having a second display. One useful method in exploring this question is to measure cognitive load during an intensive learning event. This study compared perceived…

Purnama, Fajar; Sukhbaatar, Otgontsetseg; Choimaa, Lodoiravsal; Usagawa, Tsuyoshi – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Mouse tracking serves as an alternative to eye tracking in measuring the learning process in education because of its affordability. Moreover, mouse tracking does not require extra hardware, as in the case of eye tracking, because it is a feature in personal computers by default. Therefore, it is possible to implement mouse tracking in a massive…

Horton, Jennifer – Public Services Quarterly, 2021
As academic libraries are instituting 3D printing into their services, assessment of these programs is necessary. This paper analyses the 3D printing program at an academic library from inception through the one thousandth print request. Information such as who was using the library's 3D printers, were they associated with specific departments on…

Niece, Brian K. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Models were prepared by 3D printing that can be used to demonstrate the operations required for the study of molecular symmetry. The models were designed to emphasize the order and locations of rotation axes and to clearly illustrate the more abstract reflection and improper rotation axes. The models were well-received by students in a course on…

Kolak, Joanna; Monaghan, Padraic; Taylor, Gemma – Journal of Child Language, 2022
Language in touchscreen apps could be useful as an additional source of children's language input, alongside child directed speech (CDS) and books. Here we performed the first analysis of language in apps, as compared with books and CDS. We analysed language in 18 of the most popular educational apps targeting pre-schoolers and compared their…

Li Jin; Dawei Shang – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Massive open online courses (MOOC) have become important in the learning process and have been adopted in higher education, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, few studies investigated MOOC continuance intention (CI) for arts disciplines. Thus, an integrated framework was proposed based on the expectation-confirmation model (ECM) and…

Khwanchai Kaewkaisorn; Krisna Pintong; Songpol Bunyang; Teerarat Tansawat; Thitirat Siriborvornratanakul – Discover Education, 2024
Electronic Learning (E-Learning) played a significant role in education during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a way to teach and learn online, and it is an efficient method of knowledge transfer for the instructors and students, who must practice social distancing and have less interaction during the pandemic. However, although multimedia…
