When uncertain, medical trainees often seek to co-regulate their learning with supervisors and peers. Evidence suggests they may enact self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies differently when engaged in self- versus co-regulated learning (Co-RL). We compared the impacts of SRL and Co-RL on trainees' acquisition, retention, and preparation for…

When higher education students are assessed multiple times, teachers need to consider how these assessments can be combined into a single pass or fail decision. A common question that arises is whether students should be allowed to take a resit. Previous research has found little to no clear learning benefits of resits and therefore suggested they…

The aseptic technique is essential for minimizing contamination in cell and tissue culture. However, biomedical science undergraduates in Universiti Putra Malaysia face challenges in acquiring hands-on learning experience on proper aseptic techniques due to inadequate facilities, which decreases learning interest and efficiency. To address this,…

To date, research on mixed-reality simulation (MRS) has focused on various skills including applied behavior analysis, but studies have not evaluated the role of preservice teachers' perceived knowledge, confidence, usefulness, or actual practice related to data collection. To address this gap, we conducted two separate MRS studies, one for…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of educational technologies, Immersive Virtual Reality (iVR) stands out as a transformative tool for teaching and learning. The learner must actively engage, particularly when visual and auditory knowledge information is presented simultaneously. Generative learning strategies support learners in processing and…

Clinical, medical, and health psychologists use difference scores obtained from pretest--posttest designs employing the same test to assess intraindividual change possibly caused by an intervention addressing, for example, anxiety, depression, eating disorder, or addiction. Reliability of difference scores is important for interpreting observed…

This paper investigated consequences of measurement error in the pretest on the estimate of the treatment effect in a pretest-posttest design with the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model, focusing on both the direction and magnitude of its bias. Some prior studies have examined the magnitude of the bias due to measurement error and suggested…

This paper addresses the limited exploration of the impact of virtual and augmented reality on the learning process, particularly within the context of foreign language learning among young learners. Motivated by this research gap, the EULALIA, conducted from 2019 to 2023 (2019-1-IT02-KA203-063228), sought to evaluate the efficacy of integrating…

This study explored the feasibility of using knowledge surveys in a pre-licensure professional nursing program using cognitive and behavioral outcomes. This study illustrates the incorporation of profession-specific competencies. It introduces the KS as a potentially valuable educational tool for a blended learning approach in higher education…

The aim of this research is to investigate the effects of educational film-supported augmented reality applications in the teaching of the Solar System and Eclipses Unit of the 6th grade Science course on the academic success of the students and their motivation levels for learning science. The study group of the research consisted of 42 students…

This study evaluated the effect of high-fidelity simulation with both mannequins and live actors on flexible and reflective thinking of nursing students. Students enrolled in an undergraduate nursing program were recruited to participate in this study. Ninety students, all female, completed both pre- and post-surveys. The researchers conducted a…

Background: The teaching and learning of skills in a classroom setting are often thought to require a resource-intensive approach. Purpose: This study explores the impact of a relatively basic and short communication skills teaching session on postgraduate students' self-perception of their skills. Methodology/Approach: Data was gathered using a…

A Study with undergraduate engineering students was conducted in order to evaluate whether cognitive and comprehending ability can be improved by incorporating the tool based learning. The simulator tools and virtual labs were used to represent tool based learning. The study was conducted on three different years of students. In the first stage…

Worksheets are often used during field trips and utilize a learning cycle with three stages (exploration, concept introduction and concept application) to engage learners in the learning activities of observation and exploration. However, traditional paper worksheets do not provide multimedia and interactive presentations with physical objects,…

Medical education can be emotionally charged for many reasons, while simulation-based activities in particular are designed to generate emotional reactions. However, few studies have concentrated on the relationship between learning and emotions in this field, despite widespread interest in the topic in other areas. The aim of this research was to…
