Hammond, Michael – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
This paper argues that ecological frameworks offer a powerful way of explaining the take-up of information and communication technology (ICT) in schools. Past research has focused on teachers and their willingness and readiness to use ICT but this has not satisfactorily explained the use (or non-use) of ICT. Gaps in this research can be addressed…

Martins, J. E. M. Perea – Physics Education, 2022
This work presents the design of an inexpensive electronic system to measure water temperature and generate an experimental data set used to verify the fitting between experimental and theoretical curves of a water-cooling process. The cooling constant is computed with three different theoretical methods to check their efficiency and this approach…

Allen, Peter J.; Fielding, Jessica L.; Westermann, Annabel H.; Lafratta, Amelia M. – Teaching of Psychology, 2022
Background: Allen, Fielding, East, et al. demonstrated experimentally that structural awareness, or the ability to disregard a research problem's topic and instead focus on its structural features, can be trained using StatHand (https://stathand.net). Most training benefits persisted for 1 week. Objective: The objective was to assess the…

Ledder, G.; Homp, M. – PRIMUS, 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic has made mathematical epidemiology a topic of critical importance, providing mathematics educators with an unparalleled opportunity. This opportunity is accompanied by a challenge: how do mathematics educators, some of whom have little personal experience with mathematical modeling, teach mathematical epidemiology to their…

Richterich, Annika – Learning, Media and Technology, 2022
Hackerspaces are physical community spaces where technology enthusiasts meet. Despite the term 'hacking' being widely associated with cybercrime, hackerspaces are not only perfectly legal but resourceful, skilled communities: members cultivate digital expertise and technological craftsmanship in experiential learning practices. While the…

Simsek, Kemal; Aytaç, Aysun; Ipek, Jale – Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
This study aimed to define the concepts and learning objectives related to the polygons sub-learning area of the 7th - grade mathematics course as ontology-based and to develop a measurement tool based on this ontology within the framework of competency ontology. In this study, we determined and included the learning objectives in the ontology…

Greenslade, Thomas B., Jr. – Physics Teacher, 2022
As I approach my 70th year in physics, let me tell my younger colleagues about my adventures with computation. When I was 14, my father gave me a slide rule because I appeared to be headed toward a career in physics. Since then, I have had experience with many other calculating devices.

R., Gurunath; Samanta, Debabrata – International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies, 2022
Semantic Web technology is not new as most of us contemplate; it has evolved over the years. Linked Data web terminology is the name set recently to the Semantic Web. Semantic Web is a continuation of Web 2.0 and it is to replace existing technologies. It is built on Natural Language processing and provides solutions to most of the prevailing…

Fowler, Samuel; Cutting, Chelsea; Kennedy, JohnPaul; Leonard, Simon N.; Gabriel, Florence; Jaeschke, Wayne – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2022
Spatial reasoning has been shown to be an important, trainable cognitive skillset for developing successful engagement in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), but little empirical work has been conducted in the context of digitally mediated pedagogies. This paper reports on a study into the effectiveness of a technologically…

Keane, Therese; Keane, William F. – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This paper reports on the parental perspective on one school's implementation of a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Program to ensure students had access to a personalized computer. Often studies of one computer to one student (1:1) Programs focus on students and or teachers while parent compliance in the Program is assumed. Consequently, there is…

Saba, Janan; Langbeheim, Elon; Hel-Or, Hagit; Levy, Sharona T. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Electricity, especially the flow of current, is a challenging topic for students of all ages. This study conceptualizes students' explanation of electric current as a cluster of knowledge elements. These clusters, in turn, represent students' mental models of electric circuits. Thus, this study aims to identify and characterize students' mental…

Abecassis, Sharon; Magen, Hagit; Weintraub, Naomi – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2023
Higher education students with specific learning disorders (SLD) often experience difficulties in basic learning skills, including typing on computers, which has become the most common writing mode for academic purposes. This may affect their academic performance. We compared the typing performance, product, and technique (screen gaze, finger use)…

Nenad Pavel – Design and Technology Education, 2023
Learning in makerspaces is free from curriculum and evaluation and is believed to yield practical, self-driven and solution-oriented learners. This study explores how makerspace pedagogy can be emulated in formal higher education settings to support this kind of learning. Action research was used to cultivate and review this pedagogical approach…
