(ISSN: 1557-8771; Impact Factor – .45; Cited by 0)

The International Journal of Construction Education and Research is a respected international refereed journal that publishes original works that address cutting edge issues related to construction around the globe. The Journal supports the mission of the Associated Schools of Construction (ASC), a professional association comprised of about 100 universities and colleges. The ASC encourages the sharing of ideas and knowledge and promotes excellence in curricula, teaching, research and service relating to the construction industry. The Journal recognizes scholarly work in the areas of construction education and construction research by preserving and disseminating research (both quantitative and qualitative) and other original manuscripts that contribute to the understanding of issues and topics associated with construction education and the construction industry. While research manuscripts are encouraged, another aim of the Journal is to embrace those manuscripts that may be outside of traditional research formats. Naturally, problem statements, literature reviews, methodologies and analyses, resulting in some unique position, insight, or contribution are required of all submissions. The scope of the Journal embraces pedagogical and industry content through a broad spectrum of construction-related topics including but not limited to methods, materials, estimating, contracts and construction law, labor issues, productivity, project management, scheduling, simulation, computers in construction, construction equipment, safety, information technology, business practice, management, case studies, automation, robotics, environment, sustainability, international construction, alternative energy, mechanical systems, electrical systems, specialty construction, subcontracting, design-build, alternative delivery methods, and dispute resolution. On occasion, special submissions may be solicited on a specific and relevant topic.

Abstract: The goal of this study was to explore the differences in academic performance between students who took the full 16-week fall-spring semester courses and students that took the compressed 10-day mini-mester course in construction surveying. There were no instructional design differences between semester courses with respect to instructor, contact hours, instructional design, delivery method, materials, activities, applications, quizzes, exams or grading. This study found that students taking the compressed mini-mester course had significantly better achievement on the laboratory activities and the reading quizzes than that of the students taking the full-semester courses. However, the students taking the full-semester courses significantly exhibit better achievement on the two course exams than did the students taking the compressed mini-mester course. No significant difference was found on total course points. Student undergraduate Grade Point Average (GPA), Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and Test of Logical Thinking (TOLT) scores were also found to be good predictors of course achievement.

organizational (legislation implementation administration and teacher enhancement issues); and practical (development demonstration and evaluation of effective educational methods).

Abstract: Standardized, well-established paper-and-pencil tests, which measure spatial abilities or which measure reasoning abilities have long been found to be predictive of success in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields. Instructors can use these tests for prediction of success and to inform instruction. A comparative administration of spatial visualization and cognitive reasoning tests, between in-class (proctored paper and pencil) and on-line (unproctored Internet) (N = 457), was used to investigate and to determine if the differing instrument formats yielded equal measures of spatial ability and reasoning ability in large first-semester general chemistry sections. Although some gender differences were found, findings suggest some differences across administration formats, but that on-line administration had similar properties of predicting chemistry performance as the in-class version. Therefore, on-line administration is a viable option for instructors to consider especially when dealing with large classes.

Abstract: Electrostatic potential maps (EPMs) allow for representation of key molecular-level information in a relatively simple and inexpensive format. As these visualizations become more prevalent in instruction, it is important to determine how students are exposed to them and supported in their use. A systematic review of current general and organic chemistry textbooks (N = 45) determined how frequently EPMs were presented in texts, how well distributed EPMs were across chapters, whether EPMs were included in end-of-chapter problems, and the types of conceptual instructional support provided to students when first exposed to them. Analysis demonstrated great variance in the use of EPMs. Most, but not all, textbooks presented at least one image, yet the prevalence and integration across texts varied greatly, owing in part to content differences between general and organic texts. Many texts provided minimal conceptual support and did not include EPMs in end-of-chapter problem sets. Overall, little consensus emerged as to how often EPMs should be used, and the sorts of instructional supports or student practice offered to scaffold the use of EPMs. These findings suggest a need for examining the supports that foster effective comprehension and use of EPMs, and more generally, obtaining data that inform the design and implementation of emerging instructional supports.

(2013). When do spatial abilities support student comprehension of STEM visualizations? Cognitive Processing - International Quarterly of Cognitive Science, 14(2), 129-142. DOI: 10.1007/s10339-013-0539-3


Cognitive Processing - International Quarterly of Cognitive Science is a peer-reviewed international journal that publishes innovative contributions in the multidisciplinary field of cognitive science. Its first aim is to present the latest results obtained in the manifold disciplines concerned with the different aspects of cognitive processing in natural and artificial systems: artificial intelligence, computer science and knowledge engineering, linguistics, mathematics, neuroscience, philosophy and cognitive anthropology, psychology, robotics. Its main purpose is to stimulate research and scientific interaction through communication between specialists in different fields on topics of common interest and to promote an interdisciplinary understanding of the diverse topics in contemporary cognitive science.


16

Cognitive Processing considers diverse subject matter concerning cognitive processing, accepting various approaches to investigation: theoretical, experimental, methodological, computational and modeling, applicative. A tentative list of topics includes: action; attention; cognitive change and optimization; computation in cognitive science; connectionist approaches; expertise; knowledge acquisition; knowledge representation; language (grammar and semantics, discourse analysis, development, disturbances); mental architectures and models; memory; mind design; multimedia databases; perception and pattern recognition.

Abstract: Spatial visualization abilities are positively related to performance on science, technology, engineering, and math tasks, but this relationship is influenced by task demands and learner strategies. In two studies, we illustrate these interactions by demonstrating situations in which greater spatial ability leads to problematic performance. In Study 1, chemistry students observed and explained sets of simultaneously presented displays depicting chemical phenomena at macroscopic and particulate levels of representation. Prior to viewing, the students were asked to make predictions at the macroscopic level. Eye movement analyses revealed that greater spatial ability was associated with greater focus on the prediction relevant macroscopic level. Unfortunately, that restricted focus was also associated with lower-quality explanations of the phenomena. In Study 2, we presented the same displays but manipulated whether participants were asked to make predictions prior to viewing. Spatial ability was again associated with restricted focus, but only for students who completed the prediction task. Eliminating the prediction task encouraged attempts to integrate the displays that related positively to performance, especially for participants with high spatial ability. Spatial abilities can be recruited in effective or ineffective ways depending on alignments between the demands of a task and the approaches individuals adopt for completing that task.

(2013). Beyond ball-and-stick: Students' processing of novel STEM visualizations. Learning and Instruction, 26, 12-21.


Learning and Instruction is an international, multi-disciplinary journal that provides a platform for the publication of the most advanced high-quality research in the areas of learning, development, instruction and teaching. The journal welcomes several types of contributions: reports of original empirical investigations, and replications or extensions of important previous work; critical, integrative theoretical and methodological contributions; synthetic review articles. A preference, however, will be given to empirically-based studies. The papers may represent a variety of theoretical perspectives and different methodological approaches (quantitative as well as qualitative). They may relate to any age level - from infants to adults - and to a diversity of settings, such as classroom learning in school, learning environments for special educational needs, vocational and industrial training of various kinds, and informal educational settings. The focus will be on European work in the field. However, contributions from non-European experts as well as non-members of the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction are encouraged. The major criteria in the review and the selection process are the importance of the contribution to the area of learning and instruction, as well as its technical quality. The aim of Learning and Instruction is to provide a high quality, peer refereed journal publishing the most advanced research on learning and instruction.

Abstract: Students are frequently presented with novel visualizations introducing scientific concepts and processes normally unobservable to the naked eye. Despite being unfamiliar, students are expected to understand and employ the visualizations to solve problems. Domain experts exhibit more competency than novices when using complex visualizations, but less is known about how and when learners develop representational fluency. This project examined students’ moment-by-moment adoption patterns for scientific visualizations. In a laboratory experiment, introductory-level organic chemistry students viewed familiar ball-and-stick and novel electrostatic potential map representations while solving chemistry problems. Eye movement patterns, verbal explanations, and individual difference analyses showed that students initially relied on familiar representations, particularly for difficult questions. However, as the task unfolded, students with more prior knowledge began relying upon the novel visualizations. These results indicate adoption and fluent use of visualizations is not given; rather, it is a function of prior knowledge and unfolding experience with presented content.

Identifying Student Use of Ball-and-Stick Images versus Electrostatic Potential Map Images via Eye Tracking. Journal of Chemical Education, 90(2), 159-164.


Abstract: This pilot study examined students’ use of ball-and-stick images versus electrostatic potential maps when asked questions about electron density, positive charge, proton attack, and hydroxide attack with six different molecules (two alcohols, two carboxylic acids, and two hydroxycarboxylic acids). Students’ viewing of these dual images was measured by monitoring eye fixations of the students while they read and answered questions. Results showed that students spent significantly more time with the ball-and-stick image when asked questions about proton or hydroxide attack, but equal time on the images when asked about electron density or positive charge. When comparing accuracy and time spent on the images, students who spent more time on the ball-and-stick when asked about positive charge were less likely to be correct, while those who spent more time with the potential map were more likely to be correct. The paper serves to introduce readers to eye-tracker data and calls for replication with a larger subject pool and for the inclusion of eye tracking as a chemical education research tool.

D. (2012). The effect of viewing order of macroscopic and particulate visualizations on students' particulate explanations. Journal of Chemical Education, 89(8), 979-987. (MS Chemistry Graduate Student)


Abstract: A prior study showed that students’ best make predictions about the outcome of opening a valve between two flasks containing a fluid or vacuum when they view both a demonstration video and a particulate animation, but the study showed no influence from the order in which these visualizations were used. The purpose of this current research was to study the effect of the order of visualization on students’ particulate-level explanations. For this study, first-year general chemistry students in a south-central university in the United States were asked to choose, or type in their own explanations, for three experiments involving diffusion–effusion. Student ability to focus on particulate explanations was investigated after viewing either a macroscopic demonstration or an animated particle view. Students were directed to a Web site where they received one of two randomly assigned treatments. One group of students was shown the particulate animation first, followed by the macroscopic demonstration. For the other group, the order was reversed. Student explanations were assessed after each view. Finally, both groups were shown a side-by-side view of the animation and demonstration and their explanation was assessed one final time. Results showed that the order of visualizations did make a difference, with the macroscopic view followed by the particle view yielding significantly more particulate explanations.

publication. International Journal of Construction Education and Research, 3(1), 3-16.


Abstract: This research profiles, measures and ranks Associate Schools of Construction (ASC) publications as one way to create a system that would affect a C-school top-ranking solution. Past attempts highlight a peer-group evaluation process that is fraught with conflict between academic construction programs. This new methodology introduces a categorical ranking system that is end-user responsive. Although there are three potential end users of the ranking system (i.e., students, programs, and employers), these criteria will assist mainly the programs in cross C-school evaluation. The results provide two levels of rankings, 1) long-term and 2) current, calculated to affect selected equity weights that negate program size.

Abstract: Different visualization techniques have been used for teaching chemistry concepts. Previous studies have shown that when molecular animations and video demonstrations are used, students seem to better correlate all three levels of representation: macroscopic, submicroscopic, and symbolic. This thinking process allows the students to improve their conceptual understanding and ability to create dynamic mental models. In this study, general chemistry students viewed three experiments involving dynamic fluid equilibrium in a graphic design, a video demonstration, and a molecular animation. The study investigated whether video demonstrations or particulate animations helped the students' conceptual understanding, and if the order of visualizations (video or animation first) produced any differences. Students showed improvement after each visualization. Surprisingly, there was significant improvement in responses between the first and second visualization. This work shows the importance of combining both types of visualizations, but it does not indicate a preference toward a specific order.

Abstract: In the construction industry, advanced web-based information technology is becoming an increasingly important tool in document transferring and exchange. However, the value of a web-based extranet has not been clearly evaluated regarding its affect upon project communications and information management systems. This research developed simulation methodology for evaluating the cost and time impact of a web-based extranet upon the communication processes during the bidding of a remote project. The two document-transfer models were developed to test the effectiveness of these technologies upon construction communication processes. The first model simulated the traditional paper-based communication process and the second model a web-based extranet communication process. The SIMAN simulation language with the ARENA business environment diagram software was used as the tool to compare time and cost values. A South Korean construction company gathered the time and cost data from the bidding records published on a commercial high-rise project in Brunei. The methodology developed in this research will assist contractors in determining the effect of their investing in new information technology with measurable statistical evidence at minimal of investment risk. The simulation results indicate that there is a reduction in document conveyance cost and systematic wait-time for information transfer between business partners using an innovative web-based extranet process as opposed to using the traditional fax, overnight delivery, copy, and print process.

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the current status of the Harris County Community Supervisions and Corrections Department’s (HCCSCD) Boot Camp and the construction industry’s crafts training and employment initiatives within that boot camp. Representatives from the HCCSCD, the Harris County Judicial System, Construction Workforce Coalition (CWC), Marek Employment Company (MEMCO) and the construction industry were asked to address problems and issues concerning the crafts training initiatives. Additional interviews were conducted with correction officials, crafts training program administrators, and the construction industry representatives not affiliated with the HCCSCD Boot Camp. The investigation found that sentencing practices, fiscal concerns, poor record keeping, lack of transportation, discrimination, and hiring practices are hampering the current program. The study identified systematic remedies, which included work release and a construction gateway program. The study led to the conclusion that a new logistics model consisting of more screening, increased institutional crafts training, industry involvement and a work release component may address the shortcomings of the present crafts training program.

training. The American Professional Constructor, 26(1), 9-12. (MS Construction Management Graduate Student)


Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the nature of construction crafts training programs within local and state correctional institutions. Reported high rates of probationer recidivism are of acute concern to the criminal justice system as is the shortage of craft workers in the construction industry. One potential way to address these issues is by providing construction crafts training to inmates within medium to low security correctional institutions. Questionnaires were sent to one hundred and ten correctional institutions throughout the United States to investigate the presence of crafts training programs, the level of the construction industry’s involvement, and the existence of aftercare components integrating corrections and construction. Seventy-three responses were returned, out of which, twenty-six institutions reported having construction crafts training programs either in-house or through an external agency. Findings indicate little investment in crafts training on the part of correctional systems and an extensive involvement of the construction industry and organized labor within those identified programs. The study further found that both groups failed to provide the necessary aftercare integration, which prior research has found to provide the highest potential for addressing probationer recidivism and construction employment.

The Journal of Construction Education was replaced by the International Journal of Construction Education and Research which was founded in 1996 and was also hosted by the ASC's Board of Directors. The purpose of the Journal of Construction Education was to recognize scholarly work by preserving and disseminating international research manuscripts that contributed to the understanding of issues and topics associated with construction education and the construction industry. It was the Editorial Board’s goal to publish the Journal tri-annually (spring, summer, and fall issues). The divisions of the Journal included abstracts of articles, an editorial section, blind peer-reviewed technical papers, and book reviews. By replacing the Journal of Construction Education with the new International Journal of Construction Education and Research, it was the hosting organization's goal to attract not only manuscripts dealing with construction education and pedagogy, but also to publish high-quality research manuscripts addressing a wider range of topics related to the construction industry.

Abstract: Traditionally, chemistry at all levels has been taught as a mathematical course that emphasized algorithmic problem solving almost exclusively. A call to teach chemistry both mathematically and conceptually came in response to research showing that students have trouble with conceptual understanding. While a number of instructors intuitively teach conceptually, many instructors have difficulty with what it means to teach chemistry conceptually or the number of strategies possible. Conceptual teaching puts an emphasis on students’ ability to explain relationships, to predict outcomes, to visualize/explain particle behavior, and to understand the macroscopic, particulate, symbolic, and mathematical levels. Research findings have indicated a number of teaching strategies can be used to help students understand chemical phenomena on these different levels. This article will highlight these strategies to provide a set from which the individual instructor can choose. These strategies can be used with large or small classes. Strategies include the use of macroscopic representations, particulate representations (both dynamic and static models), group problem solving, algorithmic and conceptual assessments, plus others.

Abstract: This study evaluated how general chemistry students' mental rotation abilities, knowledge of physical and chemical equilibrium, and attitudes were affected by the use of one of two different visualization assignments. One class created storyboards with paper and pencil and the other created computer animations with the ChemSense computer program. Both classes showed significant gains in mental rotation abilities and content knowledge, but there was no difference between treatments. No significant differences in content knowledge scores were found between the males and females in the study. However, male students significantly gained in mental rotation abilities over females. In the attitude survey, students believed the activities helped them learn equilibrium content. Both males and females regardless of treatment indicated that the visualization assignments were generally easy as opposed to hard to construct, but females indicated this fact significantly more so than the males. Instructors should be encouraged to use either method to increase mental rotation ability and help with equilibrium understanding.

Scope: The Harris County Community Supervision and Corrections Department (HCCSCD) in conjunction with the Construction Workforce Coalition (CWC) have implemented an Introduction to the Construction Industry and Trades program at the Harris County Adult Boot Camp. The purpose of this proposal is to provide the investigative means to evaluate the effect of this program on adult offenders. Is there a measurable effect on the recidivism to antisocial behavior of adult offenders as a result of the program and what is the effects of recruitment and retention of adult offenders within the construction industry and trades? It is understood that there is the need to present the positive social and economic values of the Harris County Boot Camp and the Construction Workforce Consortium's effort's to those who are in the position best benefit from a viable labor force. The deliverable of this grant would be a refereed publication reporting the findings of the investigative objectives.

1999 Ethics in the Construction Industry Video Production

Position: Co-Principal Investigator; Co-P.I. White, N. Sponsor: Construction Industry Advisory Council, Department of Construction Science,


Scope: CIAC has listed “industry image” as one of the topics for which proposals are to be sought. One of the major problems with the industry is the perceived lack of ethical operation of contractors and others in the in construction industry. By increasing the awareness of ethics in the industry and increasing the understanding of ethics, the image of the industry can be expected improve. The goals of this proposal are as follows: 1) identify and categorize ethical dilemmas believed to be most current and important in the industry by CIAC members, 2) publish findings within a refereed journal, and 3) produce a short demonstration video involving industry representatives discussing an ethical dilemma.

1995 The Effects of Verbal and Visual Explicitness on College Student's Mental Model

Building

Position: Principal Investigator Sponsor: University Research Grant Program for Research Development, Illinois State

University Duration: 1995-1996 Amount: $5,000

Scope: This study is designed to investigate the effects of mental model building on conditional reasoning which is employed when solving conditional proportion problems. Conditional proportions are computationally equivalent to conditional probabilities which form the foundation of probabilistic reasoning and hypothesis testing. It is hypothesized that the algorithm for solving conditional proportions is affected by one's general algorithm for calculating proportions, as well as, the development of efficient mental models of the problem statement and the data referenced in the problem statement. Following Johnson-Laird, Byrne, & Tabossi (1992) it is argued that the mental model of the problem statement is directly tied to the interpretation of the implicit or explicit structure of logical connectives and quantifiers in the problem


31

statement, while the mental model of the data is affected by the degree of explicitness in the organization of the data's representation.
