Conceptualizing Magnification and Scale: The Roles of Spatial Visualization and Logical Thinking

Research in Science Education, 41(3), 357–368.

By: M. Jones n , G. Gardner n, A. Taylor*, E. Wiebe n  & J. Forrester  n

author keywords: Magnification; Biology; Science education; Middle school
topics (OpenAlex): Spatial Cognition and Navigation; Visual and Cognitive Learning Processes; Science Education and Pedagogy
TL;DR: Spatial visualization, logical thinking, and concepts of magnification and scale were measured for 46 middle school students and results showed that the TOLT was significantly correlated with the Zoom Assessment. (via Semantic Scholar)
