Timing and Frequency of Mental Effort Measurement: Evidence in Favour of Repeated Measures - Gog - 2012 - Applied Cognitive Psychology. Subjective mental effort rating scales are widely used in research on learning, instruction and training.
However, the timing and frequency of application of those rating scales differ between studies. Some apply a rating scale repeatedly after every task in a learning or test phase, whereas others do so only once at the end of a phase. Four experiments are presented that investigated how timing and frequency of mental effort measurements affect the results obtained.

Lies, damned lies and littered with letters all over the place. 09 March 2018 If you’re starting to read research papers and don’t have a background in statistics, you may be finding some of the many letters, tables and symbols somewhat off-putting.
It is an unfortunate fact that many really great research papers look and feel inaccessible to those who might find them most useful because they are impenetrable at first, second and even third glance (we certainly find this, sometimes). The Entire Archives of Radical Philosophy Go Online: Read Essays by Michel Foucault, Alain Badiou, Judith Butler & More (1972-2018) On a seemingly daily basis, we see attacks against the intellectual culture of the academic humanities, which, since the 1960s, have opened up spaces for leftists to develop critical theories of all kinds.
Attacks from supposedly liberal professors and centrist op-ed columnists, from well-funded conservative think tanks and white supremacists on college campus tours. All rail against the evils of feminism, post-modernism, and something called “neo-Marxism” with outsized agitation. For students and professors, the onslaughts are exhausting, and not only because they have very real, often dangerous, consequences, but because they all attack the same straw men (or “straw people”) and refuse to engage with academic thought on its own terms. Rarely, in the exasperating proliferation of cranky, cherry-picked anti-academia op-eds do we encounter people actually reading and grappling with the ideas of their supposed ideological nemeses.

Sarah Hewitt. Iramuteq — IRaMuTeQ. Eight steps to write a literature review. A literature review discusses the published information on a particular topic, and is usually focused in a specific field or subject area, and may also be limited to a certain time period.
In plain english, a literature review is a summary and explanation of the complete state of knowledge on a topic as determined by academic books and journal articles. Literature reviews may be written as part of an assignment in a course where you are learning more about a subject to build your knowledge base. Literature reviews may also be written as part of an introduction to help you focus a larger work of research, or frame your argument. In this, the evidence you find in the literature review will help you determine your thesis, argument, or research questions in the larger body of work. A literature review is not an annotated bibliography. Enhancing Learning and Teaching with Technology - UCL IOE Press.

Transcribing audio with less pain. Like so many people I’ve never really liked transcribing audio, for example from interviews or focus groups.
It is time-consuming and boring. Of course, you can outsource this but that unfortunately costs money. So I thought: “how can I do this quicker with available services.” Last year with a colleague I wrote an article on exactly this: using the Youtube auto-captioning feature to more quickly transcribe audio. The quality of Youtube’s voice recognition has improved considerably in the last decade. To demonstrate the procedure, I applied it to my recent podcast with TES.
