Classroom dialogue is crucial for effective teaching and learning, prompting many professional development (PD) programs to focus on dialogic pedagogy. Traditionally, these programs rely on manual analysis of classroom practices, which limits timely feedback to teachers. To address this, artificial intelligence (AI) has been employed for rapid…

By combining a near-peer instructor (NPI) placement in a master-levelled professional program with co-design approaches, an anatomy and physiology (A&P) review session was developed to supplement Year 1 students' clinical application. An interactive A&P review, named Partners in Anatomy Learning (PAL) session, was developed by a team of…

In collaborative learning, students may follow different trajectories that evolve over time. This study used a multilayered approach to map the temporal dynamics of online problem-based learning (PBL) and the transition of students' roles across time over a full year duration. Based on data from 135 dental students across four consecutive courses…
