This study illustrates an effective practice utilizing an innovative instructional design, namely, technologyenhanced extracurriculum (TEE) created for special education students with intellectual disability. A formative research with post-facto multiple cases was designed to find out how a TEE affects students with intellectual disability in terms of cognitive and physical development; along with teachers’ perceptions about technology use in special education. Findings showed that TEE accelerates learning and has positive affects regarding cognitive and physical development.

In this respect, this study focused on the design principles of the program and the contribution of the study on student success on spelling and semantics. The instructional model guiding the development process of the program was Rosenshine’s explicit teaching model. Depending on the nature of the study, design-based res...
Fostering spatial abilities of seventh graders through augmented reality environment in mathematics education: a design study Özçakır, Bilal; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Department of Elementary Education (2017) In this study, design and development of an augmented reality learning toolkit for fostering spatial ability of seventh graders and their spatial understanding with this tool among different trials on mobile devices were reported. This study was conducted within two phases as preliminary and prototyping phases. The designed toolkit was evaluated, revised and redesigned throughout prototyping iterations with two mathematics education experts and two seventh grade students. Finally, possible contributions of ...
Fostering Creative Cognition In Design Education: A Comparative Analysis Of Algorithmic And Heuristic Educational Methods In Basic Design Education Çiğdem, Zeynep; Ürey, Uysal (2021-6-8) This research aims to examine the impact of algorithmic and heuristic educational methods in basic design education in an attempt to see their effects on the development of the creative cognition of students. The impact of educational methods in the development of creativity and creative problem-solving ability in design education has been addressed by a limited number of studies. The impact of algorithmic and heuristic educational methods in basic design education, on the other hand, has not been studied a...
