School of Education Faculty Research

As we progress into a future where more students with IEPs are in general education classes, teachers must be innovative, creative, and passionate about providing an opportunity for all students to succeed in the classroom. Rather than students with IEPs be taken from their classrooms to receive remedial services from their special education teacher, it is more beneficial to all students and teachers to have education specialists and general education teachers co-teach classes (Conderman, 2011).

Over the past two decades, India has made significant advances in school education in respect to overall literacy, access and enrolment in schools, and infrastructure. The two major accomplishments in the recent years is the political recognition of Universalization of Elementary education (UEE) as a legitimate demand and the state commitment towards UEE in the form of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education. This has led to a higher demand of qualified elementary school teachers. Over the past decade, access to education was one of the only topics that were being addressed by the Government of India. …

Eye Movements Of Students With Learning Disabilities In Reading: A Study Of Problem-Solving Strategies, Kevin Oh, Stanley C. Trent, Robert H. Tai

School of Education Faculty Research

In this exploratory study, eye movements of students with and without a learning disability in reading were recorded as they solved a set of third grade science problems. The recorded eye-gaze information included location of eye-gaze fixation on a computer screen, duration of fixation, the path of eye movement, and duration between fixations. The results revealed statistically significant differences in latent response time, question-zone fixation time, total fixations and correct responses.

An Exploration Of Think-Aloud Protocols Linked With Eye-Gaze Tracking: Are They Talking About What They Are Looking At, Kevin Oh, John T. Almarode, Robert H. Tai

School of Education Faculty Research

This pilot study investigated the use of juxtaposed think aloud and eye-gaze tracking to understand a possible different understanding of think aloud process of participants. Four participants completed eight multiple-choice science questions while thinking aloud and having their eye-gazes tracked. Analysis of the data revealed that participants had behaviors such as fore telling of an eye movement, pauses in the think-aloud, different duration of the think-aloud, and the interaction between the think-aloud and associated eye movements. These findings suggest that juxtaposed think aloud and eye-gaze tracking may be a useful approach to furthering our understanding of students’ problem solving behaviors.
