O'Brien, Ronan; McGarr, Oliver; Lynch, Raymond – Teaching in Higher Education, 2022
Although often suffering from a lack of conceptual clarity and definition, the use of problem-based learning (PBL) as a pedagogical approach has become almost ubiquitous across many disciplines in higher education in recent years. As well as purported benefits for student learning, the empowerment of students through increased autonomy is…

Edwards, David J.; Kupczynski, Lori; Groff, Shannon L. – International Journal of Higher Education, 2019
It is unknown if matching students' preferred learning style with course delivery style improves academic success and further study is warranted in this area (Feely & Biggerstaff, 2017; Newton & Miah, 2017). Recently, there has been a call to better identify and understand the preferred learning styles of physical therapy education…

Bruder, Andrea; Kummel, Miro – PRIMUS, 2019
We present our experience with an open-ended lab activity that we designed for students with a Calculus 1 background. With the goal of learning how scientists study transport in streams, the students collected data on how a pulse of leaves travels down a nearby stream. Students who had little to no experience with data with two independent…

Susbiyanto, Susbiyanto; Kurniawan, Dwi Agus; Perdana, Rahmat; Riantoni, Cicyn – International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education, 2019
The consequence of the assessment for the research statistics course at the department of physics Education in Universitas Jambi demonstrates the students' capacities to hold the idea of the mastery of research statistical concept is very low. It winds up one of the shortcomings for them to finish their final assignment. Therefore, the researcher…

Chian, Monaliza M.; Bridges, Susan M.; Lo, Edward C. M. – Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, 2019
Assessment validity, reliability, and constructive alignment to planned learning outcomes are less understood in the context of integrated, problem-based curricula. This conceptual paper examines a Triple Jump Assessment (TJA) employed as a formative and summative assessment system in the first year of an undergraduate dental program.…

Bergeson, Ryan M.; Crawford, Jane C.; Dierker, Wayne J. – ProQuest LLC, 2019
The problem statement for this project based learning was that loose-coupling, when applied to the PBIS framework, translates into major gaps with district-wide implementation of Tier II and Tier III interventions. Additionally, lack of superintendent adaptive schools' knowledge and practices impact fidelity of implementation. Tier II and Tier III…

Velazquez, Ashley J. – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Conceptualizations of "effective communication" vary across contexts and are largely dependent on the needs and social practices of communities. As a global field of study and practice, Engineering is but one community where researchers and practitioners have come together to unpack and conceptualize what it means to communicate…

Horn, Margaux A. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
The current student body will, by and large, seek online resources to supplement their learning. However, resources that are freely available online vary in accuracy and quality, and the vast majority rely on passive learning. Therefore, there is a need for interactive physiology teaching resources that facilitate application of knowledge, that…

Sellen, Katherine – Design and Technology Education, 2018
Different communities, organizations, and people hold different views on their own and others' wellbeing. It is often challenging to balance different perspectives during the design process when the truth of medicine is competing with the truth of social media and the everyday experience of wellbeing of patients, caregivers, family and friends. In…
