Lin, Ying-Lien; Wang, Wei-Tsong – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: This study aims to integrate the theories of social presence and social identity to examine the effectiveness of group-based problem-based learning (PBL) in learning communities. Social presence is a critical factor in determining the success of collaborative learning in group-based PBL activities. Although several studies have…

Ali Orhan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Although problem based learning has a great potential to promote learning outcomes as well as cognitive abilities, the number of previous studies investigating this potential on critical thinking, reading comprehension abilities and attitudes in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context is scarce. Also, the number of studies…

Chen, Ching-Huei; Hung, Hsiu-Ting; Yeh, Hui-Chin – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Learning a foreign language requires interaction with language input while involved in a task. Given that problem-based learning (PBL) offers hands-on application in realistic contexts, and that virtual reality (VR) enables learners to interact with multiple modalities of information, this study examines how the integration of VR technology into…

Frerejean, J.; van Strien, J. L. H.; Kirschner, P. A.; Brand-Gruwel, S. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2018
Although students often appear to be skilled in retrieving and making use of information from the internet, research shows that their information problem solving skills are overestimated. They show deficiencies in many of the necessary skills, such as generation of search terms, selection of sources, and critical processing of information. It is…

Wojcikowski, K.; Brownie, S. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2013
Problem-based learning can be an effective tool to develop clinical reasoning skills. However, it traditionally takes place in tutorial groups, giving students little flexibility in how and when they learn. This pilot study compared the effectiveness of generic reflective feedback (GRF) with tutorial-based reflective feedback on the development of…
