摘要

空间能力是科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)领域成功的一个众所周知的预测指标。摘要本研究旨在了解盲人和低视力(BLV)个体在触觉心理切割测试(TMCT)中解决问题时所使用的空间策略。触觉心理切割测试是一种测量盲人和低视力人群空间能力的工具。TMCT是对1938年版本的心智切割测试(MCT)的改编,该测试已广泛用于空间能力研究。此外,本文试图将这些策略与已有的针对视力正常人群的研究策略进行比较。BLV社区在工程和空间能力研究方面的代表性不足。通过了解BLV学生如何理解和解决空间问题和概念,教育者可以开发和加强与这一人群相关的教育内容。通过整合BLV社区的观点,并使STEM课程对这一人群开放,可能会鼓励更多的BLV个人追求STEM或工程职业道路。

Spatial Strategies Employed by Blind and Low-Vision (BLV) Individuals on the Tactile Mental Cutting Test (TMCT)
Spatial ability is a well-known predictor of success in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. The purpose of this study was to investigate and understand the spatial strategies that were used by blind and low-vision (BLV) individuals as they solved problems on the tactile mental cutting test (TMCT), an instrument that was designed to measure the spatial ability of BLV audiences. The TMCT is an accessible adaptation of the older, 1938 version of the mental cutting test (MCT) that has been used extensively in spatial ability research. Additionally, this paper seeks to compare these strategies with existing strategies that have been investigated with sighted populations. The BLV community is underrepresented in engineering and in spatial ability research. By understanding how BLV students understand and solve spatial problems and concepts, educators can develop and enhance educational content that is relevant to this population. By incorporating perspectives from the BLV community and making STEM curricula accessible to this population, more BLV individuals may be encouraged to pursue STEM or engineering career pathways.
