The flipped classroom (FC) is a pedagogical model with an active learning concept and a hybrid course design that reverses the typical lecture process. Given the widespread use of online delivery methods, there is a need to explore the FC in delivering statistics courses. This study employs a prospective quasi-experimental study design to evaluate…

An online authentic learning environment (OnALE) is proposed in this study to facilitate students' learning of inferential statistics in a real-life context. The efficacy of the OnALE, in comparison to the conventional approach relative to the students' performance, was explored. Respondents from the experimental group were purposively selected to…

As a foundational approach in inferential statistics, hypothesis testing (HT) is considered as one of the most challenging topics for teaching and learning. A promising approach is through the consideration of students' learning modalities, as demonstrated in vast applications; however, contentions that surround the use of learning modality in…

Attention-Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) is a widely spread phenomenon affecting learning abilities and performance. The aim of the research is to test the mechanism linking ADHD with statistics test performance. We found a significant indirect path linking the ADHD diagnosis and the final grade. ADHD was linked to lower self-efficacy,…

This paper addresses the question of whether peer collaboration affects students' performance of regression modelling tasks, an experimental study consisting of a test was conducted in a computing laboratory. Collaborating groups of students were randomly assigned to one of three experimental conditions: pre-task discussion (i.e., group members…

This study investigates the effectiveness of video-based learning compared to traditional text-based methods in distance education for software courses. The research was based on two samples of students (n[subscript 1] = 32, n[subscript 2] = 30) enrolled in the "Fundamentals of PSPP" distance course at the N.B. School of Design and…

Research has indicated that undergraduate students struggle with conceptual understanding of confidence intervals, negatively impacting statistical literacy skills, and advocates have suggested the flipped classroom pedagogy as a potential solution. The purpose of this nonequivalent control group quasi-experimental study was to determine if a…

Owing to an exponential increase in the number of courses offered online, it is crucial to understand this mode of delivery on a deeper level. In this study, associations among course performance, the use of online resources (i.e., online homework assistance, practice questions and practice tests), mode of delivery (online versus in-person), and…

We analyze here the online and face-to-face teaching of mathematics and statistics at the university level and compare the results of students from two courses of applied mathematics. We examine the influence of online teaching on the performance of students with the help of grades from five consecutive years. A questionnaire on satisfaction with…

The purpose of this study was to test the effects of a value-reappraisal intervention (VR) on students' motivation and performance compared to a goal-setting intervention (GS) and information-literacy control condition (C). Eighty-eight female students in an undergraduate introductory statistics course were randomly assigned to one of the three…

A number of studies demonstrate that quantitative teaching provides social science students with analytical and critical skills. Accordingly, the skills acquired during quantitative teaching are assumed to enhance students' progress in and after their degree. However, previous studies rely on subjective measures of students' evaluations of their…

The article describes the inclusive perspective of instruction of multi-stage practical projects in undergraduate non-STEM statistics and data mining courses at an academic college in Israel. The student population is highly diverse, comprising individuals from various cultural and ethnic groups. The study examines the impact of diversity on…

While many STEM faculty believe Writing-to-Learn to be an effective instructional tool, instructional barriers such as the time and effort required to provide substantive feedback to their students limit the use of writing in STEM classrooms. Incorporating peer review and revision into the writing process can help mitigate these barriers while…

Statistics courses are frequently perceived by tertiary students as extremely difficult and anxiety-inducing, negatively impacting student outcomes and experiences. To address this, the present study considered worked example videos (where an instructor demonstrates the solution to a problem while narrating the process) as a blended learning…

Increasing focus worldwide on accountability and quality assurance in universities has forced senior management to develop policies to address academic support at institutional-level. One such area is the mathematical and statistical skills that students in many disciplines need to succeed. In common with many countries, large numbers of students…
