The Role of Prior Knowledge in Effects of Embodied Pedagogies on Learning
Background: Embodied learning pedagogies are increasingly popular, but our understanding of how embodied pedagogies enhance learning of complex concepts in higher education over longer periods of time remains nascent, particularly how learners’ prior knowledge might interact with different types of embodied pedagogies. We propose the Performing First Hypothesis as an organizing framework, which posits that learners with lower prior knowledge, bec…
The “Better Book” Approach to Addressing Equity in Statistics
Although improving racial equity in critical college courses such as introductory statistics is a laudable goal, making research-based progress toward that aim in a scalable manner remains a challenge. To translate psychological insights to benefit racially marginalized students, we implemented the “Better Book” approach, where instructors, researchers, and developers work together to improve an online textbook used in introductory statistics. Th…

The Better Book Approach for Education Research and Development
Background/Context Despite advances in the learning sciences, a persistent gap remains between research and practice. Purpose/Objective/Research Question/Focus of Study In this project, we develop and try out a new approach to education research and development in which researchers, designers/ developers, and instructors collaborate to continuously improve an online interactive textbook. Intervention/Program/Practice Using a “learn by doing” stra…
Making hidden resources visible in a minority serving college context
We speculate that first-generation students at minority serving institutions have concrete concerns that need to be addressed alongside identity and social belonging needs. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
Beyond Big Data
Early Perceptual Learning
Fostering general transfer with specific simulations
Science education faces the difficult task of helping students understand and appropriately generalize scientific principles across a variety of superficially dissimilar specific phenomena. Can cognitive technologies be adapted to benefit both learning specific domains and generalizable transfer? This issue is examined by teaching students complex adaptive systems with computer-based simulations. With a particular emphasis on fostering understand…
