Proof validation plays a significant role in students' understanding and learning of mathematical proofs. Recent studies have shown that university students were lacking skills in proof validation and were challenged by the implementation of the appropriate acceptance criteria when validating proofs. Drawing on Habermas' construct and rational…

Simulation-based teaching can be a valuable method for learning statistical concepts. Its practical implementation for health-related subjects is seldomly evaluated. We propose a simulation-based approach to teach interaction effects in a postgraduate biostatistics course. We describe the steps involved in organizing and implementing a…
