Jakubowski, Henry V. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2011
Content and emphases in undergraduate biochemistry courses can be readily tailored to accommodate the standards of the department in which they are housed, as well as the backgrounds of the students in the courses. A more challenging issue is how to construct laboratory experiences for a class with both chemistry majors, who usually have little or…

Reed, Stephen K. – Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2012
Many types of learning require the mapping of information across situations. The proposed organizational framework extends the cognitive study of mappings across problems to include mappings across representations, solutions, and sociocultural contexts. I apply one-to-one, one-to-many, and partial mappings to analyze representative cases that…

Rush, Sue; Acton, Lesley; Tolley, Kim; Marks-Maran, Di; Burke, Linda – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2010
Use of simulation is well established as a way of learning and assessing skills in vocational disciplines. In many institutions the use of simulation with student nurses is being tested as a way of helping them learn clinical skills, problem-solving, clinical assessment and decision-making. This paper explores the value of simulation as a learning…

Olson, Joanne K. – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2007
A research-based framework for teaching science is a heuristic tool used to help preservice teachers conceptualize many complexities of teaching while making explicit the strategy to use a research-based body of professional knowledge to inform instructional decision-making (Clough, 2003, Paper presented at the annual meeting of the Association…

Fischetti, John; And Others – Teacher Educator, 1996
Creates a framework for understanding the paradigm shift in teaching and learning, describes how the shift applies to instructional practices, and synthesizes principles and indicators guiding the observation of teaching. The new paradigm is based on cognitive development research and constructivist theory and is antithetical to the old paradigm…

Talyzina, N. F. – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1982
A general analysis of the learning process precedes the discussion of a teaching model designed to provide effective control of the process of attaining knowledge. Features of the model discussed include preliminary knowledge, motivation, presentation and activities, feedback, and planning the assimilation process of a complete subject. A 21-item…

WARD, TED W. – 1966
THE RATIONALE OF A CLINICAL APPROACH TO RESEARCH ON TEACHER BEHAVIOR IS SET FORTH TOGETHER WITH INDICATION OF DIFFICULTIES. IN ONE CLINICAL STUDY, RECORDS OF FOCUSED OBSERVATIONS OF TEACHER BEHAVIOR WERE REVIEWED BY A SPECIALIST IN LEARNING AND A SPECIALIST IN SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY IN RELATION TO RESEARCH FROM THESE FIELDS. TEACHER DECISIONS PROVED…

Marland, P. W.; Store, R. E. – Distance Education, 1982
Examines some traditional instructional strategies used to improve textual materials for learning at a distance, including advance organizers, overviews, pretests, objectives, and inserted questions, together with devices in typography and graphics. Research in each area is reviewed and guidelines are given for using each strategy. An extensive…

Belanger, William A. – Journal of Moral Education, 1993
Describes the imparting of values as a multidimensional model with three dimensions: (1) mode; (2) intent; and (3) preparation. Emphasizes that this model focuses on the teacher. Provides suggestions and classroom behavior examples to illustrate the model and its implementation. (CFR)

Maier, William – Montessori Life, 1997
Describes how putting the theory of multiple intelligences into practice in Montessori elementary schools could enhance students' self-knowledge, animate independent learning, and make learning communities more culturally inclusive. Suggests pluralizing the point of entry into a topic, building teaching teams to support diverse intellects, and…

Grier, Leslie K.; Ratner, Hilary Horn – Child Study Journal, 1996
Examined kindergartners' and third graders' recall to test the effects of four learning strategies applied to items involving three conceptual relations--taxonomic, contextual, and unrelated. Found that (using a constructivist framework for interpretation) learner activity and causal processing improved memory when memory was not supported by…

Lord, Thomas R. – Innovative Higher Education, 1997
A study compared student learning in two sections of an introductory college biology course for nonmajors. Groups were taught in the traditional teacher-centered, lecture/laboratory format (n=86 students) and in a student-centered constructivist format (n=98). The latter group performed significantly better on the same tests, maintained a better…

Coulson, John E., Ed. – 1962
A symposium of scientists and educators interested in coordinating the often parallel but separate research and development efforts in programed learning and digital-computer utilization met to define more exactly the potentialities of the computer as an instructional aid. Their papers form the basis of this book. The first section of the book…
