Garces, Sebastian; Vieira, Camilo; Ravai, Guity; Magana, Alejandra J. – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Worked examples can help novice learners develop early schemata from an expert's solution to a problem. Nonetheless, the worked examples themselves are no guarantee that students will explore these experts' solutions effectively. This study explores two different approaches to supporting engineering technology students' learning in an…

Montrezor, Luís Henrique – Advances in Physiology Education, 2021
The teaching-learning process is complex and requires continuous research and dedication. Research has been important to prove that student achievement can improve when active methodologies are properly implemented, either in isolation or integrated with a short lecture. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the performance and perception of…

Xinjian Cen; Rachel J. Lee; Christopher Contreras; Melinda T. Owens; Jeffrey Maloy – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2024
Active learning, including student thinking and discussion in class, has been shown to increase student learning gains. However, it is less clear how instructor-level variation in the implementation and timing of active learning activities affects student gains. Our study aims to investigate the extent to which the time spent on individual…

Daniel Adeboye; Desmond W. Govender; Irene Govender – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2024
Students naturally have a phobia for STEM subjects which leads to poor performance in these subjects. The reason for this is varied but can be associated with the teaching approach. As an improvement on the traditional teaching method and the earlier technology-enabled teaching methodologies, using the affordances of technology to effectively…

Voss, Julia; Shaghaghi, Navid; Calle, Andres Mauricio; Lee, Kristin; Abbate, Liam – Across the Disciplines, 2022
Although Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) has long focused on incorporating writing and related literacy activities into STEM education, the extent to which these pedagogies are widely used in STEM teaching remains unclear, as does their impact on student course performance, especially for underrepresented and marginalized student groups. Using…
