Direct linkYung-Chuan Lee – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2025
The aim of this study was to explore how first-time problem-based learning (PBL) participants can improve their learning outcomes. Empirical results showed that students with higher academic performance and attendance rates significantly enhanced their critical thinking and problem-solving skills through PBL compared to traditional lecture-based…

LoPresto, Michael – Physics Teacher, 2022
When teaching a general education introductory astronomy course that includes a mathematics prerequisite, it is important to convey that formulas and equations physically represent properties of actual objects and processes that occur that can actually be observed. Students with varying comfort levels with mathematics often need to be convinced…

Sherif Welsen – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
Contribution: This article explores the impact of academic coaching on science and engineering students through a pilot study. The study proposes integrating academic coaching as a standard component of the student support framework. Background: Unlike mentoring or informing, coaching or inquiring practice encourages higher education students to…

Cornelis J. C. Vertegaal; Cecilia Martinez; Ramiro Serra; Prem Sundaramoorthy; Mark J. Bentum – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2025
Contribution: This study identifies the types of interaction that contribute to student learning with student-led tutorials (SLTs). The quality of these interactions include peer discussion, student tutor presentation, joint reasoning, and constructive feedback. Background: The introduction of SLTs in an advanced electromagnetics bachelor course…

Serra, Ramiro; Martinez, Cecilia; Vertegaal, Cornelis J. C.; Sundaramoorthy, Prem; Bentum, Mark J. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2023
Contribution: This article describes how a peer learning strategy called student-led tutorials (SLTs) can improve student performance in an electromagnetism course (EM). This study provides empirical evidence on how promoting student active participation in collaborative problem-solving activities improves performance rates. Background: In 2019,…

Julia Eckhard; Marc Rodemer; Sascha Bernholt; Nicole Graulich – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Supporting students in building well-grounded explanations plays a crucial role in scientific practice. Research in organic chemistry education on students' mechanistic explanations, however, has revealed various challenges. When solving mechanistic tasks, students experience difficulties when (I) deriving implicit properties from structural…
