Spatial Skills and Demographic Factors in CS1 [PDF]
Proceedings of the 21st Koli Calling International Conference on Computing Education Research, 2021 Motivation Prior studies have established that training spatial skills may improve outcomes in computing courses. Very few of these studies have, however, explored the impact of spatial skills training on women or examined its relationship with other factors commonly explored in the context of academic performance, such as socioeconomic background and ...

Training generalized spatial skills [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2008 Spatial transformation skills are an essential aspect of cognitive ability. These skills can be improved by practice, but such improvement has usually been specific to tasks and stimuli. The present study investigated whether intensive long-term practice leads to change that transcends stimulus and task parameters.

Relating Spatial Skills and Expression Evaluation [PDF]
United Kingdom & Ireland Computing Education Research conference., 2020 Work connecting spatial skills to computing has used course grades or marks, or general programming tests as the measure of computing ability. In order to map the relationship between spatial skills and computing more precisely, this paper picks out a particular subset of possible programming concepts and skills, that of expression evaluation.

SKILL, AGGLOMERATION, AND INEQUALITY IN THE SPATIAL ECONOMY [PDF]
International Economic Review, 2021 AbstractThis paper develops a spatial equilibrium model with skill heterogeneity and agglomeration forces that stem from local idea exchange. I structurally estimate the model using American census data to study policy effects on real wage inequality between and within college and noncollege workers.

The spatial sorting and matching of skills and firms [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, 2007 Abstract In this paper we make use of a matched employer‐employee database for Italy to look at the spatial distribution of wages. Using this rich database we aim to open up the black box of agglomeration economies exploiting the micro dimension of interaction among economic agents, both individuals and firms.

Spatial evaluation of volcanic ash forecasts using satellite observations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 The decision to close airspace in the event of a volcanic eruption is based on hazard maps of predicted ash extent. These are produced using output from volcanic ash transport and dispersion (VATD) models.

Investigating Spatial Skills in Computing Education [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2020 ACM Conference on International Computing Education Research, 2020 There is an intriguing connection between spatial skills and CS: those with better spatial skills tend to do better in many CS related tasks. Since spatial skills are malleable, it is tempting to simply introduce spatial skills training courses to students who are struggling and expect positive outcomes.
