Contribution: An innovative teaching experience carried out at the University of Trento using team-based learning (TBL) in a large computer networks class. The impact of TBL on the students' learning and satisfaction was investigated. Background: Active learning pedagogies, including TBL, play an important role in enhancing higher-order cognitive…

Team-based learning (TBL) is an active learning instructional strategy shown to improve student learning in large-enrollment courses. Although early implementations of TBL proved generally effective in an undergraduate exercise physiology course that delivered an online individual readiness assurance test (iRAT) before class, the instructor…

This paper describes the creation of a theme-based first quarter, of a two quarter sequence, general chemistry laboratory course following an argument driven inquiry format and employing specifications grading. The course contains four, two-week projects investigating the chemistry of a popular sports drink. The sugar content, dye concentration,…

Initial teacher education provide learning opportunities that allow future teachers to develop digital skills and self- and co-regulation learning (SCRL). However, there is need for research on how to prepare students teachers to use Information and Communication Technologies (ITC) on SCRL. This qualitative exploratory study took place in ICT and…

Purpose: This study aims to mitigate the inherent challenges associated with implementing project-based learning (PjBL) by integrating it with the service engineering methodology (SEEM). The study demonstrates that combining PjBL with a methodological approach provides a step-by-step procedure that facilitates the practical application of PjBL and…

Contribution: Reporting of students' view on the use of preparatory sprint and virtual meetings, as well as on the workload effort in combination with coding artifacts in a Scrum-variant project-based course. Background: Scrum has been adopted to a large extent in Software Engineering (SE) courses. Relevant aspects have been examined in the…

Active learning methods increase student learning, despite potential ressentiment of students towards these methods, based on the lack of knowledge, experience, exposure, or cultural ressentiments regarding social interactions with people perceived as strangers, which hamper the success of these methods. We investigated the student appreciation of…

The heavy dependence on online education during the COVID-19 pandemic has long-term consequences for teaching and learning. The problem statement of the present study is to identify, from a student-centered perspective, solutions for a teaching approach in the virtual environment to increase student involvement and stimulate active relevant…

This research is a quasi-experimental study with the following objectives: 1) To examine the effectiveness of cooperative learning activities using the TAI technique combined with activity-based learning on the topic of congruence for students at Roi Et Rajabhat University, aiming to achieve the 75/75 efficiency criterion. 2) To compare…

Team project-based learning (TPBL) combines two learning techniques: 1) project-based learning (PBL) and 2) teamwork. This combination leverages the learning outcomes of both methods and places students in a real work situation where they must develop and solve a real project while working as a team. TPBL has been used in two advanced database…

This study explores postgraduate students' perceptions of the effectiveness of collaborative learning within computer-based environments. The research investigates the distinctions between collaborative learning and group work, examining how students' attitudes and behaviours differ, and the subsequent impact on learning outcomes. Findings reveal…

This study aims to identify the effectiveness of e-project-based learning (e-PBL) in improving the academic achievement and learning motivation of female students of special education. A card for evaluating e-projects, an achievement test, a motivation measure, and a measure of attitudes toward e-PBL were administered to a sample of all 38…

To respond to construction industry-specific requirements for civil engineers, university teachers need to provide opportunities for students to develop their generic and professional skills. This article describes the use of a novel intervention of project-based learning -- PjBL with the consultative approach -- to teach Lean Construction and the…

Team-based learning (TBL) is an active learning pedagogy developed for in-class sessions and based on the collaborative work of small groups of students. The increasing push to online and blended learning has enhanced the need to expand this pedagogy to a virtual environment, but little evidence has been produced on how students accept online…

This research focuses on Generation Z (Gen Z) students, specifically those in nursing colleges. Gen Z individuals display unique characteristics in terms of thinking, personality, lifestyle, and learning preferences compared to preceding generations, necessitating adaptations in teaching methodologies within nursing schools. This study explores…
