We present a question bank consisting of over 250 multiple-choice and true--false questions covering a broad range of material typically taught in an introductory undergraduate course in numerical analysis or computational science. The questions are ideal for polling students during lectures by means of a student response system that uses…

Nicole Irene Mirea – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Phonotactic patterns are generalizations that govern the order of consonants and vowels, within words and syllables. Certain second-order phonotactic patterns--those that relate multiple sounds within a syllable, such as "if the vowel is [near-close near-front unrounded vowel], then [s] can only appear at the end of the…

In study abroad programs, overall student participation and the representation of minoritized students continue to rise, but barriers to participation for minoritized students persist, especially in engineering. As we strive to broaden participation in engineering study abroad programs, we must critically examine the experiences of minoritized…

Zakariya, Yusuf F.; Nilsen, H. K.; Goodchild, Simon; Bjørkestøl, Kirsten – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2020
The importance of students' prior knowledge to their current learning outcomes cannot be overemphasised. Students with adequate prior knowledge are better prepared for the current learning materials than those without the knowledge. However, assessment of engineering students' prior mathematics knowledge has been beset with a lack of uniformity in…

Lui, Michelle; McEwen, Rhonda; Mullally, Martha – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Educators are recognizing the potential power of immersive virtual reality (IVR) to allow learners to experience previously intangible firsthand phenomena, such as atoms and molecules. In this study, an IVR simulation of a complex gene regulation system was co-designed with an undergraduate microbiology course instructor. The course, with 234…

Alsadoon, Elham – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Researchers emphasize that prior knowledge is one of the important factors that influence learning. This study discusses the design and implementation of adapting an e-course to students' prior knowledge using the Learning Management System (LMS). It aims to investigate the impact of such adaptive e-course to the learner's prior knowledge through…

Lee, Kerry; Courtney, Matthew; McGlashan, Ann; Neveldsen, Paul; Toso, Meripa – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
The Maori Whakatauki (significant saying) for Technology Education: Kaua e rangiruatia te hapai o te hoe; E kore to tatou waka e u ki uta. Don't paddle out of unison; Our canoe will never reach the shore. Quality initial teacher education (ITE) builds on student prior knowledge. Students bring a wealth of life and career knowledge and skills to…

Xu, Chao; Peters, Michelle; Brown, Sue – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2020
Using data from 23 statistics instructors and 1,924 students across 11 post-secondary institutions in the United States, we employ multilevel covariate adjustment models to quantify the sizes of instructor and instructional effects on students' statistics attitudes. The analysis suggests that changes in students' statistics attitudes vary…

Jáñez, Álvaro; Rosales, Javier – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Many researchers have proposed a causal link between low domain knowledge and disorientation in hypertext. Our objective was to challenge this hypothesis, examining other variables that might have an influence, such as design, reading instructions, or working memory capacity. We analysed navigation patterns and comprehension scores in a sample of…

Reed, William – Science Teacher, 2020
In this secondary-level lesson, students will generate and prioritize questions about the novel coronavirus and evaluate scientific and/or technical information from multiple authoritative sources, assessing the evidence and usefulness of each source for answering their prioritized questions. This lesson consists of three segments: (1) connecting…

Bichler, Sarah; Schwaighofer, Matthias; Stadler, Matthias; Bühner, Markus; Greiff, Samuel; Fischer, Frank – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
A previous study found that task shifting and fluid intelligence, but not working memory capacity (WMC) and prior knowledge, influenced the worked example effect (Schwaighofer, Bühner, & Fischer, 2016). To increase confidence in these findings, we report a preregistered extended replication study of Schwaighofer et al.'s investigation.…

Labak, Irena; Sertic Peric, Mirela; Radanovic, Ines – Education Sciences, 2020
Many studies investigate the effects of block vs. traditional class scheduling on the students' success in high-school science classes. However, it is rare for studies to investigate the interactive effect of class scheduling and students' average performance on the students' success. We investigated how block (B) vs. single (S) class scheduling,…

Slagter; Xiao, Junhong – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2020
This paper explores elements of open education within the context of higher education. After an introduction to the origins of open education and its theoretical foundations, the topics of open and distance learning, international education issues in open education, open educational practices and scholarship, open educational resources, MOOCs,…

Youde, Andrew – Education Sciences, 2020
This paper explores the practices of higher education tutors in blended learning contexts. Significantly, the influence of their perceptions on practice was considered by investigating previous teaching and learning experiences, and their views of the affordances blended learning offers adult learners. The analysis was undertaken in relation to…

Tang, Zhongqing – English Language Teaching, 2020
Vocabulary acquisition, after being neglected for centuries, aroused people's attention from the second half of last century. At that time, people began to realize, instead of grammar, vocabulary occupies the central role in language acquisition (Gass & Selinker, 1994). Compared with intentional vocabulary acquisition, incidental vocabulary…
