The sounds of birds form the outdoor playlist of our lives. Birds appeal to the public, in part because of the wide variety of interesting sounds they make. This popularity has led to a long history of amateur participation in ornithology, which has recently produced rapid increases in freely available online databases with hundreds of thousands…

Stefanie Elsner; Jörg Großschedl – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Metacognitive accuracy is understood as the congruency of subjective evaluation and objectively measured learning performance. With reference to the "cue utilisation framework" and the "embedded-processes model of working memory," we proposed that prompts impact attentional processes during learning. Through guided prompting,…

Roosa Wingström; Johanna Hautala; Riina Lundman – Creativity Research Journal, 2024
Artificial intelligence (AI) has breached creativity research. The advancements of creative AI systems dispute the common definitions of creativity that have traditionally focused on five elements: actor, process, outcome, domain, and space. Moreover, creative workers, such as scientists and artists, increasingly use AI in their creative…

Though job opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) continue to expand in the United States, people on Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) while in school are continually disadvantaged in future STEM-based career possibilities. Studies have shown that students on IEPs are far less likely to major in a STEM degree…

The national conversation about STEM education continues. While math and science have been a constant in K-12 and higher education, curriculum in technology and engineering have not been consistently part of the tapestry of American education. As such, there is a dearth of qualified candidates for the ever-growing number of computer science and…
