Mary Opio-Göres; Ingo Kollar; Birgit Dorner – Journal of Social Work Education, 2024
Assessing cases of child welfare requires the ability to engage with different sources of information systematically. This study examined how case-based learning (CBL) can be used to support social work students (N = 104) acquire knowledge crucial to assessing cases of child welfare and whether benefits of CBL could be maximized by structuring the…

Dominik Diermann; Jenna Koenen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Most chemistry students struggle with interpreting and understanding NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra and the general concepts of NMR spectroscopy. NMR spectroscopy seems to be difficult to both teach and learn. Therefore, the corresponding courses should be investigated in more detail. We conducted a survey with N = 39 German university…

Michal Pinhas – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
Our mental representation of the infinite has received little research attention in cognitive psychology. In countably infinite sets, the infinity symbol (8) is presumed to be perceived as larger than any finite natural number. The present study sought to explore if the infinity symbol is processed as "larger than" natural numbers, and,…

Fernando Veiga; Alain Gil-Del-Val; Edurne Iriondo; Urko Eslava – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2025
This paper presents the experimental work developed to measure the learning process through concept map analysis. The development of a concept map is requested by the students for each chapter or theme of the subject. As a result, maps from engineering courses have been analyzed. The measurements carried out consider several parameters, such as…

Scholes, Colin A. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2023
Breadth subjects enable students to explore topics that are outside their core degree discipline and can be used to promote chemical engineering to non-engineering students. A breadth subject was created to be welcoming to all students, that presented energy issues through a chemical engineering context. Contact was through lectures, flipped…
