Direct Comparison of Concept Mapping and Knowledge Mapping for Learning Science Content
Creating maps, such as concept maps, is an elaborative activity that can promote generative learning. Although several meta-analyses have shown that engaging in mapping activities can benefit learning, there is a great deal of variation within these mapping studies. The purpose of the present study was to directly compare the effectiveness of concept mapping versus knowledge mapping for learning science content. In the first experiment, participa…

Systematically Reviewing the Rigour of Immersive Virtual Reality Research in STEM Education
First-Year STEM College Students’ Study Strategies
Effective studying is important to learn better and increase academic achievement in postsecondary education, which also holds true for the challenging content of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Informed by previous research, this study mainly aimed to investigate first-year STEM college students’ study habits and perceptions of the effectiveness of different study strategies, and the frequency of use of these strategies…
How Scientific Is Cognitive Load Theory Research Compared to the Rest of Educational Psychology
Cognitive load theory (CLT) has driven numerous empirical studies for over 30 years and is a major theme in many of the most cited articles published between 1988 and 2023. However, CLT articles have not been compared to other educational psychology research in terms of the research designs used and the extent to which recommendations for practice are justified. As Brady and colleagues found, a large percentage of the educational psychology artic…

Quotation Accuracy Matters
When previous research is cited incorrectly, misinformation can infiltrate scientific discourse and undermine scholarly knowledge. One of the more damaging citation issues involves incorrectly citing article content (called quotation errors); therefore, investigating quotation accuracy is an important research endeavor. One field where quotation accuracy is needed is in the learning sciences given its impact on pedagogy. An integral article in pe…
The relative effectiveness of different active learning implementations in teaching elementary school students how to design simple experiments
“Active learning” has been used to describe classrooms that have varied widely with respect to instructional topics, age of learners, and the procedures used to operationalize the general notion of the term. In most cases, the specific variant of active learning under investigation has been more effective than the particular control used for comparison. The goal of the current study was to unambiguously describe, implement, and assess 4 different…
