Atwood, Alicia; Emerson, Tisha L. N.; Knox, Melissa A.; Taznin, Mahjuja M. – Journal of Economic Education, 2023
The use of experiments in the undergraduate economics classroom has been shown to have pedagogical value in increasing student learning and engagement, but the startup costs of adopting classroom experiments can be high for instructors. This article serves as a guide to adoption for the first-time user of computerized (online) classroom…

April Murphy; Steve Ritter – Grantee Submission, 2022
Large-scale, classroom-based experiments using adaptive instructional software pose somewhat unique challenges for experimental design and deployment. One reason for this is that adaptive software allows students to advance through the curriculum at different rates and encounter content at different times, meaning that content targeted for…

Samoila, Cornel; Ursutiu, Doru – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2021
Contribution: From the moment when universities began to talk about learning environment instead of classes and schools, a summative notion that entails knowledge transfer heralds an important stage of redefining the basic elements of learning. A learning environment requires the transition from learning rounding off toward open learning, without…

Végh, Ladislav – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2016
The first data structure that first-year undergraduate students learn during the programming and algorithms courses is the one-dimensional array. For novice programmers, it might be hard to understand different algorithms on arrays (e.g. searching, mirroring, sorting algorithms), because the algorithms dynamically change the values of elements. In…

Cheung, Alan; Slavin, Robert – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2016
As evidence-based reform becomes increasingly important in educational policy, it is becoming essential to understand how research design might contribute to reported effect sizes in experiments evaluating educational programs. The purpose of this study was to examine how methodological features such as types of publication, sample sizes, and…
