“…Eye-tracking studies using students as the participants often explored students with learning disabilities. Specifically, Berget and Sandnes (2015) and Berget, Mulvey, and Sandnes (2016) investigated the effects of dyslexia on student performance of information searches using web-based search engines. They discovered dyslexia had a negative impact on search performance.…”

“…They discovered dyslexia had a negative impact on search performance. Results from these studies have the potential to improve future web layout and navigation for students (Berget et al, 2016). In addition, recent studies also analyzed gaze patterns of students with autism and how autism relates to social difficulties and challenges (Falck-Ytter, 2015;Hanley et al, 2015).…”

The purpose of this integrative literature review was to synthesize the eye-tracking literature related to education and communication in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) to formulate a conceptual model and develop a research agenda that guides eye-tracking research in agricultural education and communication. To do so, we reviewed the literature to identify basic elements of eye-tracking research, examined specific variables related to eye-tracking research, and synthesized the findings into a conceptual model. We found and reviewed 77 articles published between 2010 and 2016 within education (56) and communication (21). Research implications for agricultural education included an examination of classroom management practices, a comparison of novice and experienced instructors, and an exploration of educational settings. Research implications for agricultural communication included tracking fixation and frequency of eye movement when viewing advertisements and understanding the relationship between brand placement and buying decisions. Synthesizing the research in education and communication, we identified the audiences, concepts, environments, and variables related to eye tracking that could be investigated within agricultural education and communication. In conclusion, we found a lack of agricultural education and communication studies cited in the SSCI, eye-tracking technology provides variables to support a multivariate approach in agricultural education and communication, and eye-tracking equipment is expensive, which may limit diffusion in some settings.

“…We have taken a balanced approach introducing the students to a wide range of methods, including inferential statistics. Typical examples of quantitative problems studied by students and staff in our lab include comparative studies of dyslexia [56,57,58]. Such studies often compare two groups, namely, dyslexic participants and a control group, and therefore often rely on paired t-tests.…”

Students' knowledge of inferential statistics is lacking in many Computer Science study programs. Yet, the needs for inferential statistic skills have emerged with new fields of study such as human-computer interaction involving observation of human activity. This paper presents experiences teaching inferential statistics to undergraduate computer science students with a focus on the actual goals of the investigations and not the mechanisms and mathematics of statistics. The teaching framework involves teaching statistics as a set of systematic black-box tools.

“…The long-term goal of this research endeavour is to achieve invisible assistive technology that does not draw attention. The alternative view to assistive technology is universal design where there is one, non-stigmatizing, solution to be used by all, for instance, readable language [26,27,28], dyslexia [29,30,31,32,33], motor disabilities [34,35,36,37], low-vision [38,39]…”

Several wearable augmented reality devices have emerged in recent years. Although these devices target users with 20/20 vision, they have also been explored as low vision aids. However, such devices are still relatively inaccessible and expensive. This study explores one of the inexpensive commercial headmounted see-through display, google cardboard, and a simple homemade wearable augmented reality display. The experimentation reveals that, although not perfect, the homemade device built using a smartphone and common household scrap items is the most promising platform for experimenting with visual aids.
