This paper reports on a study aiming at examining the development of science process skills through the implementation of experiments in a science course which was performed in flipped classroom design. Flipped classroom model was implemented for a series of experimentation activities in a science classroom in which 38 science teacher candidates…

Emily Nordmann's primary work has been guidance for how to use lecture recordings effectively for staff and students. This involved a peer-reviewed publication (Nordmann et al., 2020) and a set of infographic guides that have been adopted at institutions internationally. This work also led to the development of a generic course that teaches study…

On-demand video has become a seamless part of the fabric of information consumption. Initially inspired by the popularity of video guides for practical skills such as cooking and DIY, instructional videos were developed for equipment used in the first-year chemical engineering undergraduate teaching laboratory at Imperial College London. During…

Generation Z has graduated and in some cases is still in college according to Seemiller and Grace (2016), who define the generation range from 1995-2010. A defining characteristic of Generation Z is that they grew up with technology. They are so involved or comfortable with technology that they "expect" it. Parents lament the lack of…

The study examines the impact of flipped classrooms (FC) in enhancing postgraduate students' research skills in preparing a research proposal (RP). Postgraduate students in the College of Education at King Saud University were enrolled in a special course called 'Independent Study' that specialises in helping students prepare an RP. A class of…

In flipped classrooms, students learn course content by watching flipped lessons (videos) outside of class time. During class, instructors guide learning by answering questions, facilitating projects, and fostering relationships with students. Although flipped classrooms are gaining popularity in secondary school settings, most research is…

This communicaton shares with the chemistry education community the rubrics used to evaluate student videos associated with using a pipet, using a buret, and making a solution in a volumetric flask that were part of a digital badging project. The rubrics were used across multiple general chemistry courses, hundreds of teaching assistants, and…

This study aimed to measure the effectiveness of a proposed program in developing practices and modifying beliefs of practitioner teachers about the flipped classroom. To this end, the author followed a true experimental design, wherein the experimental group received training through the proposed program, whereas the control group received none,…

The impact of media and social networks on users is growing. The fact that commercial activity is flooding most social networks motivates us to enquire about the success factors of posts, and to try to determine if the impact is greater or lesser depending on gender. Attracting attention and exciting the user or customer are the main objectives of…

Web based resources are playing an important place in the academic life of the students in our country. The students use the website for getting the primary information with regard to any educational institution. University websites are the gateways for the students. The students are empowered to get the information virtually without visiting the…

One of the most common methods employed to help teachers improve the teaching and learning of mathematics is professional development (PD). Research into professional development is a relatively new field, but still we know much about the features of effective PD with respect to such improvements. While the broad features of PD that are effective…

Eyewitnesses to crimes are regularly under the influence of drugs, such as cannabis. Yet there is very little research on how the use of cannabis affects eyewitness memory. In the present study, we assessed the effects of cannabis on eyewitness recall and lineup identification performance in a field setting. One hundred twenty visitors of coffee…

In the present study, we used a multiple baseline design across participants to assess the efficacy of a video modeling intervention to teach six children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to assertively respond to bullying. During baseline, the children made few appropriate responses upon viewing video clips of bullying scenarios. During the…

Textbook highlighting is widely considered to be beneficial for students. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive solution to highlight the online lecture videos in both sentence- and segment-level, just as is done with paper books. The solution is based on automatic analysis of multimedia lecture materials, such as speeches, transcripts, and…

This is a step-by-step guide for having students create a basic idea for their own movie and then write and perform a "movie trailer" to promote their movie.
