Andrew Sellers – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Experiential learning requirements, such as internships and practicum, are common requirements in undergraduate sports management programs. These courses typically require the sports management student to complete a set number of hours while being guided by both their internship site supervisor and their faculty advisor. Although these internships…

Pastushenkov, Dmitrii; Camp, Cameron; Zhuchenko, Iryna; Pavlenko, Olesia – TESOL Journal, 2021
In this study, the researchers investigated the effects of shared and different first language (L1) background, L1 use amounts, and peer familiarity on the frequency of language-related episodes (LREs) and task scores in interactive pair work. By exploring these variables in distinct interactions, the authors attempted to obtain a more…

Jiang, Juming; Kusamoto, Misaki; Tanaka, Ayumi – Frontline Learning Research, 2021
This study examined whether individual differences in causality orientation moderate the effects of monetary reward and choice on perceived competence, which affect intrinsic motivation in turn. Causality orientation refers to an individual's tendency to experience or interpret events in a social context in a specific way and to behave…

Linkowski, Lauren – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Non-traditional learners (NTL's) are students who have delayed college enrollment, have dependents, are single parents, are financially independent, have non-standard high school credentials, attend part-time or work full-time. They are a growing segment of college students. Their success is critical to the future of the American workforce, but…

Meehan, Maria; McCallig, John – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
We apply Carroll's model of school learning, which theorizes about the relationship between time and learning, to motivate the design of a large, first-year, university mathematics course, where students have the choice to attend lectures and/or watch online videos. The theoretical model informs how the course and resources are designed in order…

John Mingoia; Brianna Le Busque – Journal of Learning Development in Higher Education, 2022
Online higher education is experiencing growth in enrolment and development which creates a need to continually evaluate the efficacy of online course delivery. Prior research reported that performance in online education is equivalent to traditional face-to-face delivery; however, minimal research exists to identify which elements of course…

Chen, Zhongzhou; Xu, Mengyu; Garrido, Geoffrey; Gunthrie, Matthew W. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
This study examines whether including more contextual information in data analysis could improve our ability to identify the relation between students' online learning behavior and overall performance in an introductory physics course. We created four linear regression models correlating students' pass-fail events in a sequence of online learning…

Metcalfe, Janet; Xu, Judy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
This article investigates the relation between mind wandering and the spacing effect in inductive learning. Participants studied works of art by different artists grouped in blocks, where works by a particular artist were either presented all together successively (the massed condition), or interleaved with the works of other artists (the spaced…

Rawson, Kevin; Stahovich, Thomas F.; Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2017
There is a long history of research efforts aimed at understanding the relationship between homework activity and academic achievement. While some self-report inventories involving homework activity have been useful for predicting academic performance, self-reported measures may be limited or even problematic. Here, we employ a novel method for…

Wijnen, Marit; Loyens, Sofie M. M.; Smeets, Guus; Kroeze, Maarten; van der Molen, Henk – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2017
In educational theory, deep processing (i.e., connecting different study topics together) and self-regulation (i.e., taking control over one's own learning process) are considered effective learning strategies. These learning strategies can be influenced by the learning environment. Problem-based learning (PBL), a student-centered educational…

Appelrouth, Jed I.; Zabrucky, Karen M.; Moore, DeWayne – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2017
Attaining successful outcomes on the SAT can have profound educational and financial consequences for college-bound students. Using archival data from a private tutoring centre, we investigated variables we hypothesised to contribute to SAT score increases. Our analyses revealed significant effects of time on task and rate of SAT homework…
