Improving mental arithmetic ability of primary school students with schema teaching method: An experimental study.

Skillful utilization of mental arithmetic can significantly improve students' mathematical computation ability. However, it was observed that primary school students often resort to reiterating the process of written arithmetic in their minds during mental arithmetic, which is not conducive to their numerical ability improvement. This paper devises a set of graphic teaching aids for primary school students' mental arithmetic improvement based on mental arithmetic strategies, schema theory, and working memory. To validate the effectiveness of schema teaching in enhancing mental arithmetic ability among primary school students, a controlled experiment was conducted with two groups of third-grade students randomly selected from a primary school in Jingshan City. The results, obtained through descriptive statistical analysis and the multitrait-multimethod approach (MTMM), indicated that the experimental group (n = 52) demonstrated significant improvements in speed, accuracy, and stability in mental addition and subtraction after a 14-day instruction period in schema teaching. This study offers a potent mental arithmetic teaching strategy for elementary mathematics education, which can lead to a comprehensive enhancement of students' mental calculation abilities. It also holds promise for inspiring innovative teaching methodologies in primary and secondary mathematics education in the future.

The Application Strategy of Graphic Combination in Primary Art Teaching

Graphic teaching is a teaching mode that guides teachers to combine images and words in the course of teaching. This teaching mode enables art teachers to explain the course content to students in a more intuitive way, deepen their understanding of what they have learned, and promote the improvement of art level and aesthetic ability. At the same time, it also helps to cultivate students' good study habits and achieve their all-round development. After consulting that no matter which version of the current primary school art textbooks are composed of text and picture typesetting. They complement each other and are closely linked to guide the learners. This is enough to explain an important feature of the combination of pictures and texts in art teaching, that is, teachers should pay attention to the combination of pictures and texts in teaching, especially in PPT courseware, and try to avoid all words or only pictures. This paper will discuss the essay and drawing diary and the combination of illustration and text in the form of graphic combination. This paper demonstrates the significance of graphic combination to the primary school art teaching and puts forward the application strategy of graphic combination in the primary school art teaching. Finally, the importance of graphic combination teaching to the overall development of students and the cultivation of social talents is emphasized again.

Exploring Challenges Faced by Engineering Students in Graphic Preparations of Perspective Geometry

Perspective geometry is a fundamental, challenging, and captivating subject within the engineering bachelor's degree program. It holds significant importance in developing graphic skills, analytical abilities, sketching proficiency, and comprehension of drawings. Moreover, it plays a crucial role in organizing the architectural components of a bachelor's thesis. However, the teaching and learning of perspective geometry often reveal various difficulties and shortcomings. Moreover, one of the various systems of symbols and languages created by global cultures is the graphical language, which is an exceptional and unparalleled language for understanding scientific and technical information. This language is considered the oldest international language. Every visual piece of information in various processes of human life has been formed through the graphical language, which is composed of various geometric shapes. In this research, data has been gathered from the perspectives of first-year students from the 2013 batch regarding the difficulties encountered in perspective geometry. A questionnaire was distributed to collect their opinions, and three graphical tasks with different levels of complexity were given to the students. The results obtained from this study indicate that employing suitable teaching methods and providing adequate resources can alleviate most of the learning difficulties associated with graphic skills. Instructors also play a pivotal role in resolving learning obstacles. Therefore, efforts should be made to enhance the quality of teaching graphic subjects by updating the content and curriculum of educational programs and improving teaching methods through the use of technology. In higher education institutions, conditions for fostering students' professional knowledge, enhancing their ability to draw maps and create technical documents can be facilitated through computer graphics education. Updating the teaching methods plays a crucial role in improving the quality of graphic education. The mentioned factors provide a suitable environment for the growth of graphic knowledge and the implementation of projects related to professional subjects.

Computer Graphics teaching challenges: Guidelines for balancing depth, complexity and mentoring in a confinement context

We discuss challenges, methodologies, and approaches for teaching Computer Graphics (CG) courses in a confinement context, together with assessing the experience and the proposal of guidelines. Our approach balances CG topics’ depth with creating relevant and attractive content for a CG course while coping with communication, support, and assessment issues. These are especially important in a pandemic context where online classes may reduce students’ engagement and hinder communication with educators. We refined the model used over the last years based on a two-stage approach (first tutorial, then project-based) relying on an in-house WebGL-based educational library – WebCGF – that simplifies onboarding while keeping connections to the underlying concepts and technologies. The confinement constraints led to complement that model with additional collaborative tools and mentoring strategies. Those included, apart from the standard synchronous remote classes, the use of a group communication tool for structured community engagement and video presentation, and a Git-based code management system specifically configured for classes and groups, which allowed following more closely the development process of each student. Results show that the performance and students’ engagement achieved was similar to that of recent years, which led us to a set of guidelines to consider in these contexts.

<p>Reliability and Validity for a 3-D Modeling Self-Efficacy Scale for Pre-College Students</p>

Engineering graphics education has long been a required component of technology and engineering education at the university level. In middle and high schools, the number of computer-aided design (CAD) programs continue to proliferate and grow. Lacking in the research related to these programs is the effect on non-cognitive factors such as self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is a predictor of success and perseverance and is an important consideration in technology and engineering education. This research investigates the psychometric properties of an instrument designed to measure the three-dimensional modeling self-efficacy among middle and high school students.
 This study found the Three-Dimensional Modeling Self-Efficacy Scale to be a reliable measure within this population with strong evidence of validity. Based on these findings, the scale was revised, and recommendations for future study were made. This research begins to fill a gap not only in research related to engineering graphics self-efficacy but also within a pre-college population, especially those who are historically underrepresented in engineering disciplines, in this case, female students.

청각장애학생의 기능어 활용능력 향상을 위한 그래픽디자인 기반 일본어 문법보조교재 개발 -조사(助詞) 활용을 중심으로-

최근 장애학생들의 대학진학은 꾸준히 증가추세에 있다. 장애학생들의 고등교육에 있어 긍정적인 교육적 성과를 얻기 위해서는 단순히 비장애학생과 장애학생의 물리적 통합뿐만 아니라 교육과정의 운영이나 교수방법의 개선 등과 같은 질적 수준 향상에 초점을 맞추어야 될 것이다. 일본어 수업의 경우 발음, 문자, 문법, 회화, 독해 등 시각과 청각으로 보고, 듣고, 발음하면서 실력을 향상시켜야 그 효과성이 높게 나타난다. 하지만 청각장애학생들의 경우 정확한 발음과 듣기가 불가능하고, 수업에서 PPT나 판서 등과 동시에 제공되는 교수자의 음성 설명 또한 시각적 정보로 받아들어야 하는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 이를 극복하거나 지원할 수 있는 적극적인 교수-학습 지원 매체가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 청각장애학생들의 교육적 권리인 교수-학습지원을 위해 일본어 기능어 중에서 특별한 뜻이 없어 그 이해와 사용을 어려워하는 조사(助詞) 활용을 중심으로 그래픽디자인 기반의 문법보조교재를 개발하였다. 개발의 범위와 방법은 각 대학에서 사용하고 있는 일본어 교양수업 교재에서 공통적으로 사용되는 조사를 사용하여 문장을 구성하고, 그 조사의 성질을 이해할 수 있는 그래픽을 문장마다 각각 제시하였다. 이는 청각장애학생들에게 일본어 조사의 이해와 활용을 높여 학업성취도를 높이고, 나아가 담화능력을 향상시키는 데 그 목적이 있다.
