  • Individual differences in beliefs about gesture perception and production

    Heng Zhang, Amelia Yeo et al.ARTICLEInteractive Learning Environments2025

    Gestures are one of the most common forms of nonverbal communication in everyday life and work. While specific gestures have been well-studied, the role of general gestures in computer-mediated communication remains largely unknown, especially regarding individual differences in gesture production and perception. Utilizing the limited capacity model of motivated mediated message processing as the theoretical framework, this study explores the imp…

Teachers had positive expectations, both for gestures that are redundant with (i.e., match) the accompanying speech, and gestures that are complementary to (i.e., mismatch) speech. However, teac…

  • Students learn more when their teacher has learned to gesture effectively

    Martha W Alibali, Andrew G Young et al.ARTICLEGesture2013Cited by: 7References: 3

    Teachers’ gestures are an integral part of their instructional communication. In this study, we provided a teacher with a tutorial about ways to use gesture in connecting ideas in mathematics instruction, and we asked the teacher to teach sample lessons about slope and intercept before and after this tutorial. In response to the tutorial, the teacher enhanced his communication about links between ideas by increasing the frequency with which he ex…
