Development of a cognition-priming model describing learning in a STEM classroom

Abstract: Successful STEM learning depends on the interaction of affect, cognition, and application of ideas. Simply put students who are unwilling to persist in STEM based endeavors do not suddenly develop into scientists, mathematicians, engineers or computer scientists, nor do they seek out STEM related courses or STEM based careers. The purpose of this study is to investigate content, cognitive, and affective outcomes related to STEM integrated curriculum within the K‐5 arena. Educational and psychological literatur… Show more

“…They argued that some items in their scale were more associated with being in school by respondents in some age groups than others, such that those items were able to elicit the desired construct better with younger children. By contrast, Lamb, Akmal and Petrie (2015) in a study "to investigate content, cognitive and affective outcomes related to STEM integrated curriculum" (p.410) explain lower reliabilities of an instrument administered to kindergarten pupils (as compared to second and fifth grade pupils) as due to "the varying ability of kindergarteners to interpret questions and responses" (p.422). This reflects how Cronbach's alpha cannot be seen as a measure of a scale or instrument per se but only of its application to a particular sample of respondents.…”

“…The model was developed within the framework of connectivism. Identification of the attributes occurred using a modified cognitive diagnostics approach (CDA) [28]. The modification of the CDA is the use of video game server data based on student choices and actions as opposed to talk aloud protocols [29].…”

“…This situation arises because researchers view the processes between input and output as too complex for empirical study [28]. This linear system out of necessity often becomes focused on external environmental systems such as culture without consideration of internal cognitive processing.…”

“…Other studies, based on SEM models, including also cognitive and affective variables have emphasized the importance of having adequate meaningful understanding of scientific concepts (Nieswandt, 2007), and the use of learning strategies and social support of students (Lamb, Akmal, & Petrie, 2015).…”
