Wenzel, Kristin; Schweppe, Judith; Rummer, Ralf – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
The present work was conducted to re-examine the findings of Agarwal et al. ("Applied Cognitive Psychology," 22(7), 861-876, 2008), which showed that both closed-book tests (with feedback) and open-book tests increased learning outcomes after 1 week compared to simple re-study of the same materials. However, contrary to often found…

Zhou, Z. – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2022
This paper analyses a set of widely held beliefs concerning our understanding and teaching of critical thinking, a notion which is increasingly adopted by universities as their main educational goal. Existing scholarship on critical thinking throws up a vast heterogeneous collection of definitions of critical thinking. I propose a…

Katz, Brian P. – PRIMUS, 2022
Several major themes related to rethinking assessment emerged from a search of the papers published in "PRIMUS." Authors explored ways to change the stakes of assessments, often with outcomes-based grading and testing structures. They explored changing the "structure" of assessments by considering media beyond written exams and…

Ostendorf, Annette; Thoma, Michael – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
Following on from the already wide-ranging academic discussion about fostering critical thinking in students as an important component of a university's educational mission, this paper takes a particular look at didactic principles for fostering this critical thinking. We begin with a reception of Abrami et al.'s (2015) comprehensive meta-study of…

Van Camp, Carole M.; Batchelder, Sydney R.; Irwin Helvey, Casey – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Children should engage in 1 hr/day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) that results in increased heart rates (HRs) (CDC, 2022). However, precise individualized HR criteria for MVPA are not provided, and it is unclear whether observed behaviors classified as MVPA are associated with elevated HRs indicative of MVPA. The current study…

Mladenovici, Velibor; Ilie, Marian D.; Maricu?oiu, Lauren?iu P.; Iancu, Daniel E. – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
Over time, the academics' approaches to teaching (i.e., content- or learning-focused approach) were intensively studied. Traditionally, studies estimated the shared variance between the items that describe a behavioral pattern (i.e., the psychometric approach), defined as a learning- or content-focused approach to teaching. In this study, we used…

Peng, Tzu-Hsiang; Wang, Tzu-Hua – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Pedagogical agents (PAs) are a crucial aspect of the e-learning environment. A PA is defined as a virtual character presented on an interface, and they are designed to promote student learning. PAs have been widely discussed in academic papers. However, an appropriate analysis framework has not been proposed because of the diversity and complexity…

Al Hudib, Hind; Cousins, J. Bradley – American Journal of Evaluation, 2022
Evaluation policy has been identified as an important means of shaping and influencing organizational evaluation practice, yet, to date, little empirical research has been conducted to deepen our understanding of this relationship. The purpose of this study was to illuminate evaluation policy's role in leveraging organizational capacity to do and…

Reichardt, Charles S. – American Journal of Evaluation, 2022
Evaluators are often called upon to assess the effects of programs. To assess a program effect, evaluators need a clear understanding of how a program effect is defined. Arguably, the most widely used definition of a program effect is the counterfactual one. According to the counterfactual definition, a program effect is the difference between…

Carless, David – Active Learning in Higher Education, 2022
For feedback processes to be effective, they need to involve students actively in generating, processing and responding to feedback information. Teacher transmission approaches are unlikely to provide a good investment of time and resources because they fail to draw sufficiently on student agency. In this conceptual article, it is argued that…

Akcan, Emrullah; Bakir, Kemal Faruk – Research on Education and Media, 2022
Ethnopedagogy is expressed as the information that a society uses in raising children, which develops from the roots of its past. According to ethnopedagogy, education begins in the family, not in school, and continues throughout life in the society. One of these educational channels is cartoons, which have an important place in children's lives.…
