Christof Keebaugh; Emily Marshman; Chandralekha Singh – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
We discuss how research on student difficulties was used as a guide to develop, validate, and evaluate a Quantum Interactive Learning Tutorial (QuILT) to help students learn how to determine the completely symmetric bosonic or completely antisymmetric fermionic wave function and be able to compare and contrast them from the case when the particles…

Complex problem solving is one of the skills desired in the 21st century workforce. Students can improve their problem-solving skills by working on homework problems, and creating new problems can be a stimulating and inventive exercise for student as well. Our previous studies explored the impacts of a novel homework pedagogy where students…

Junhua Xiao – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
The flipped classroom teaching model has been widely used in anatomy education to embrace a blended learning strategy. However, the impact that a continuous flipped classroom teaching model exerts on student learning of human topographic anatomy remains unclear. To address this question, student learning experience and performance were compared…

Reza Shahi; Hamdollah Ravand; Golam Reza Rohani – International Journal of Language Testing, 2025
The current paper intends to exploit the Many Facet Rasch Model to investigate and compare the impact of situations (items) and raters on test takers' performance on the Written Discourse Completion Test (WDCT) and Discourse Self-Assessment Tests (DSAT). In this study, the participants were 110 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students at…

Roger Young; Emily Courtney; Alexander Kah; Mariah Wilkerson; Yi-Hsin Chen – Teaching of Psychology, 2025
Background: Multiple-choice item (MCI) assessments are burdensome for instructors to develop. Artificial intelligence (AI, e.g., ChatGPT) can streamline the process without sacrificing quality. The quality of AI-generated MCIs and human experts is comparable. However, whether the quality of AI-generated MCIs is equally good across various domain-…

Hayat, Bahrul – Cogent Education, 2022
The purpose of this study comprises (1) calibrating the Basic Statistics Test for Indonesian undergraduate psychology students using the Rasch model, (2) testing the impact of adjustment for guessing on item parameters, person parameters, test reliability, and distribution of item difficulty and person ability, and (3) comparing person scores…

John Hansen; Amanda Nemeth; John Stewart – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Curricular analytics (CA) is a quantitative method that analyzes the sequence of courses (curriculum) that students in an undergraduate academic program must complete to fulfill the requirements of the program. The main hypothesis of CA is that the less complex a curriculum is, the more likely it is that students complete the program. This study…

Matthew W. Lowder; Adrian Zhou; Peter C. Gordon – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
"Hospital" can refer to a physical place or more figuratively to the people associated with it. Such place-for-institution metonyms are common in everyday language, but there remain several open questions in the literature regarding how they are processed. The goal of the current eyetracking experiments was to investigate how metonyms…

Xiuyu Lin; Zehui Zhan; Xuebo Zhang; Jiayi Xiong – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
The attribution of learning success or failure is crucial for students' learning and motivation. Effective attribution of their learning success or failure in the context of a small private online course (SPOC) could generate students' motivation toward learning success while an incorrect attribution would lead to a sense of helplessness. Based on…

Nobuhiro Kamiya – Language Teaching Research, 2025
This study examined the effects of watching gestures and lip movement on second language (English) listening comprehension. The participants were 30 high and 22 low proficient learners of English. There were six listening tasks combining two variables: modality and difficulty. The modality consisted of three types of assessments: Body (the upper…

Daniele Traversaro; Giorgio Delzanno; Giovanna Guerrini – Informatics in Education, 2024
Concurrency is a complex to learn topic that is becoming more and more relevant, such that many undergraduate Computer Science curricula are introducing it in introductory programming courses. This paper investigates the combined use of Sonic Pi and Team-Based Learning to mitigate the difficulties in early exposure to concurrency. Sonic Pi, a…

Speirs, J. Caleb; Leuteritz, Robyn; Lê, Thanh K.; Deng, Rose; Ell, Shawn W. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
Even after research-based instruction, students who demonstrate the ability to assemble relevant conceptual knowledge on one physics question may have difficulty assembling that same knowledge on a closely related problem. Recent research has suggested that reflexive, bottom-up reasoning processes seemingly unrelated to the physics concepts…

Faisal Channa; Muhterem Dindar; Andy Nguyen; Rohit Mishra – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2024
This study explored the sequential interplay between challenges and regulatory processes in high- and low-performing collaborative groups. 66 students from a Finnish higher education institution participated in a collaborative task in groups of three. Approximately 34 h of video data were coded. The sequential analysis revealed that both groups…

Sarat Doley; Sujata Kakoti – Taiwan Journal of TESOL, 2024
Scheduling of practice to create a spacing effect has been observed to lead to superior retention of L2 vocabulary and grammar. Two of the various methods of scheduling L2 task practice discussed widely in recent times are interleaving and blocking. In a desirable difficulty framework, both of these methods have been recommended for task…

Edward N. Harris; Evan A. Schroder; Teryn J. Berks – Smart Learning Environments, 2024
Concept-heavy courses such as Biochemistry in life and physical science curricula are challenging for many college-aged students. It is easy for students to disengage in a lecture and not learn the subject matter while in class. To improve student learning and participation, we employed a flipped format for the first half of the course and…
