This study aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of the LADEC model in promoting future skills among undergraduate learners. The research objectives included: (1) analyzing the components of the LADEC model; (2) designing and implementing the model; (3) comparing the effectiveness of the LADEC model with the DTP model; and (4) assessing…

Modern medical training consists largely of lecture-based instruction and in vivo or video modeling of specific skills. Other instructional methods, such as teaching with acoustical guidance (TAGteach), have rarely been evaluated. In this study, we compared teaching with tactile guidance, or tactile TAGteach in which a vibratory stimulus is…

The concept of a free body diagram is central to Mechanical Engineering. Beyond its correct layout, a series of analysis concepts in the development of this skill allows one to visualise, understand, and analyse mechanisms and other complex applications. The correct assessment of the skill goes beyond the simple application of a test because it is…

In Austria, binding training objectives are defined for the company-based part of dual training (approximately 70-80 per cent of total training time), but there are scarcely any normative specifications on how these are to be achieved and there is no systematic quality assurance of the practice. The conditions under which vocational training…

The Tactical Games Model (TGM) is summarized as a physical education model where the emphasis is on developing the underlying core components of games and sports to develop the tactical and performance skills of participants, known as game performance (Metzler, 2011). The Sport Education Model (SEM) is a physical education model structured and…

Leadership is often conceptualized and taught through famous, world-changing individuals; however, leadership spans levels of influence, from small-group projects to global initiatives. While student leaders are present at every level, existing leadership research and programs center adults. Within this article, Lisa DaVia Rubenstein, Sydney…

There is increasing evidence supporting the effectiveness of the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) for children on the autism spectrum. However, substantial variability in response to the ESDM has been reported across participants. We examined the plausible yet untested hypothesis that variations in the fidelity level of therapists delivering the…

Models-based practice is a standards-based way of teaching where the teacher becomes familiar with multiple different ways (i.e., model) of delivering a unit of instruction. A teacher well versed in multiple models can select the model that best promotes the intended learning outcomes of the unit. However, there is very little evidence that…

Experiential learning, which emphasizes gaining new skills, knowledge, and perspectives through experiences, has become one of the most influential models for transforming students' learning and development in a variety of contexts from academic settings to workplace training programs. The current body of research on the assessment of experiential…

Teacher-student interaction (TSI) is the core element and important teaching method of smart classroom. Improving the quality of smart classroom teaching and developing higher-order thinking (HOT) among students requires strengthening research on the TSI structure in smart classroom. At present, the structure model of TSI in smart classroom mainly…

Aim/Purpose: This study aims to develop a theoretical framework for enhancing students' higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) by integrating massive open online courses (MOOCs) with gamification elements. Background: There is a growing demand to develop students' innovative thinking abilities through MOOCs, focusing on higher-order thinking skills…

The rate of college student mental health difficulties has been climbing, leading to overburdened college counseling centers. We propose the Holistic Prevention & Intervention Model (HPIM) as one solution in which campus and community resources work collaboratively to support students experiencing psychological distress and alleviate clinical…

The existing performance evaluation methods in robot-assisted surgery (RAS) are mainly subjective, costly, and affected by shortcomings such as the inconsistency of results and dependency on the raters' opinions. The aim of this study was to develop models for an objective evaluation of performance and rate of learning RAS skills while practicing…

This study examines how middle managers support their employees' strengths use via three sequential analyses. In Study 1, an open-ended questionnaire survey of high-performing middle managers at a global manufacturer in Japan (n = 144) was conducted to collect comments on strengths use support (SUS). The grounded theory approach was used to…

Paul Zurkowski is often considered the "father" of the term, "information literacy" (IL). There were, however, other authors who, at a similar time, were writing about concepts we now consider fundamental to the nature of IL. A work of particular significance is Alvin Toffler's "Future Shock." In this classic text --…
