Examining the relationship between spatial ability and cognitive load during complex problem solving
(PATT, 2022-06-21)Spatial ability is documented as a predictor of success in STEM disciplines and noted to contribute to individuals problem-solving approaches. While there is a significant body of correlational evidence indicating that ... -
An investigation into the role of spatial ability in problem solving in engineering education
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2021-11)Problem solving is a fundamental component of engineering practice and as such, the development of problem-solving skills is a core goal of engineering education. Problem-orientated pedagogical approaches are used in ... -
Using pupil dilation to measure cognitive load during a spatial skills test
(ASEE, 2022-08-23)This full research paper explores how spatial skills and cognitive load interact. Spatial skills allow a person to manipulate and rotate any three-dimensional object. Studies have reported that spatial skills can be a ...
