A Comparison of the Effects of Two Different Online Homework Systems on Levels of Knowledge Retention in General Chemistry Students
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Nabulsi, Leena; Nguyen, Amy; Odeleye, Oluwatobi – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Online homework systems have been shown to help student achievement in chemistry courses. This study sought to compare the levels of knowledge retention in students over the course of a semester, using two different types of homework systems--the adaptive-responsive system and the traditional-responsive system. Two sections of a first semester…

Impact of Combination of Short Lecture and Group Discussion on the Learning of Physiology by Nonmajor Undergraduates
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Asem, Elikplimi K.; Rajwa, Bartek – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
This study assessed the impact of an "active learning" strategy employed alone or in combination with traditional lectures on the learning of mammalian physiology by undergraduate students. The study investigated the impact of three teaching strategies, namely (1) traditional lecture, (2) group discussion alone, and (3) combination of…

Increased Learning in a College Physics Course with Timely Use of Short Multimedia Summaries
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Dunleavy, Spencer; Kestin, Greg; Callaghan, Kristina; McCarty, Logan; Deslauriers, Louis – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
The typical introductory physics lecture requires students to consolidate and assimilate a large quantity of complex information that is often novel to them. This can leave students overwhelmed, slow the pace of their learning, and lower their motivation. We find that carefully designed multimedia summaries in the form of one-minute videos and…

Egan, Laura; Tang, Judy H.; Ferraro, David; Erberber, Ebru; Tsokodayi, Yemurai; Stearns, Pat – National Center for Education Statistics, 2022
Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) is an international comparative study designed to measure trends in mathematics and science achievement at grades 4 and 8, as well as to collect information about educational contexts (such as students' schools, teachers, and homes) that may be related to student achievement. TIMSS has…

The Effects of Demography, Expectations and Student Attitudes on Australian Secondary School Teachers' Homework Practices
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Bowd, Justin; Bowles, Terry; McKenzie, Vicki – Australian Journal of Education, 2021
Homework has been associated with a range of academic and cognitive benefits for secondary students. Research has also revealed that students' homework behaviours can vary with demographic traits. An important factor that may account for some of this variation is the role played by teachers and schools in homework allocation. It is hypothesised…
