Victoria Damjanovic; Jennifer Ward – School Science and Mathematics, 2024
Integrating STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in authentic ways is often overlooked in early childhood spaces, despite young children having the ability to engage with the world around them through STEM practices. This piece showcases the work of children in a prekindergarten classroom as they explored an integrated STEM…

Susuz, Mehmet – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2021
The 'object' has the potential to be a tool in the process of conveying the feelings and thoughts of the artist to the audience in the formation of contemporary art. While 'process' emphasizes the production stages of the work or the time period from the beginning to the end of the work in some works of art, in some works it refers to the changes…

Eva Oller; Marta Peña; Noelia Olmedo-Torre – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2024
The application of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in a Reinforced Concrete course through the development of a real-life civil engineering project from its conception, as a coursework, is a challenged experience for students. As long as the coursework evolves, students develop real ways to think as an engineer and they work in an environment similar…

Jaeyoung Ha; Kawthar Alrayyan; M. M. Lekhon Alam – Discover Education, 2024
There is much interest in employing computer technology in design professions and education. However, few attempts have been made to apply immersive visualization technology to learn design details in landscape architecture. This study aims to illuminate how virtual reality (VR) technology helps students with design details in landscape…

Ghosh, Somik; Bigelow, Ben; Johnston, Jonathan – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2023
Ranking systems are readily available and offer a simplistic way to differentiate among universities. However, end-users are not informed about the criteria and methods used to develop the ranking systems. Whereas ranking systems are used by prospective students, their lack of reliability and transparency outweigh their benefits. There are a few…

Nicole M. Wessman-Enzinger – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2023
What comes to mind when one thinks about building? One may envision constructions with blocks or engineering activities. Yet, constructing and building a number system requires the same sort of imagination, creativity, and perseverance as building a block city or engaging in engineering design. We know that children invent their own notation for…

Juan F. Jiménez – Learning Assistance Review, 2023
This qualitative case study was conducted to understand the process learning center administrators used in the creation or remodeling of learning center spaces at a 2-year college system in the Midwest. Data were collected through interviews, which were transcribed and analyzed to conduct a within- and cross-case analysis. Four themes emerged from…

Joana Conceição; Margarida Rodrigues – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2024
Can You Build It? is an engaging Improve It! task that asks children to construct 3D shapes based on 2D depictions. Students' initial 3D creations often need revision, and as they build and re-build, they develop spatial relationships. This task was implemented in a first-grade class, connected to composing 3D geometric shapes to address the…

Teng Wang; Jingjing Liu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
A model kit consisting of magnetic rods and steel balls, which is generally sold as a desktop toy, has been utilized to construct physical models for teaching packing arrangements of metallic crystal. All four basic metallic crystal structure models are easily constructed layer by layer, and corresponding unit cells can be naturally derived from…

Denny, Mark – Physics Teacher, 2022
Bridges are a popular topic in this journal, because they are a very visual display of static and dynamic physical principles. In this paper, we provide an intuitive derivation of the equations associated with suspension bridge cables and load-bearing arches, which is of pedagogical interest in illustrating the consequences of Newton's laws for…

Farrow, C. Ben; Wetzel, Eric M. – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2022
To date, research conducted on interactive learning spaces (ILSs) has focused on the student learning experience, with limited focus on faculty perceptions. In this study, construction management faculty were surveyed about the availability of interactive learning spaces, the impact of teaching in a space designed for active learning, and the…

Kuperman, Asi; Aladjem, Ruthi; Dagan, Osnat; Mioduser, David – Design and Technology Education, 2022
The purpose of this study is to gain a deep understanding of kindergarten children's drawings as a form of documentation of their work, of their ability to notice and depict substantial details, as well as their understanding of how objects in the world "work". In the study, we examined drawings created by kindergarten children for…

Goldstein, Molly H.; Adams, Robin S.; Purzer, Senay – Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research, 2021
Trade-off decisions, which necessitate striking a balance between two or more desirable but competing features, are a crucial part of design practice. However, they are known to be difficult for student designers to make. While designers, educators, and researchers have numerous methods to assess the quality of design artifacts, these methods are…

Ebekozien, Andrew; Aigbavboa, Clinton; Ikuabe, Matthew; Thwala, Wellington Didibhuku – Education & Training, 2023
Purpose: Nigeria has one of the highest graduate unemployment rates in Africa, and there is no comprehensive policy framework to address it. Evidence shows that integrating craftsmanship into higher education academic programmes can enhance graduate employability. Therefore, there is a need to integrate it into the built environment programmes at…

Boström, Johan; Hultén, Magnus; Gyberg, Per – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
As has been pointed out in previous research, teacher-led learning plays an important role in developing preschool children's technological skills and technological self-esteem. What is missing in research are more detailed analysis of how the children's and teachers' actions and interactions shape the learning process. In order to study this…
