Kopcha, Theodore J.; Otumfuor, Beryl A.; Wang, Lu – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2015
This study examines the effects of spatial ability, gender differences, and pictorial training on fourth grade students' ability to recall landmark locations from memory. Ninety-six students used Google Earth over a 3-week period to locate landmarks (3-D) and mark their location on a 2-D topographical map. Analysis of covariance on posttest scores…

Higgins, Jennifer; Russell, Michael; Hoffmann, Thomas – Journal of Technology, Learning, and Assessment, 2005
To examine the impact of transitioning 4th grade reading comprehension assessments to the computer, 219 fourth graders were randomly assigned to take a one-hour reading comprehension assessment on paper, on a computer using scrolling text to navigate through passages, or on a computer using paging text to navigate through passages. This study…
