Direct linkBarzilai, Sarit; Ka'adan, Ibtisam – Metacognition and Learning, 2017
Learning to integrate multiple information sources is vital for advancing learners' digital literacy. Previous studies have found that learners' epistemic metacognitive knowledge about the nature of knowledge and knowing is related to their strategic integration performance. The purpose of this study was to understand how these relations come into…

Wiles, Janine L.; Allen, Ruth E. S.; Butler, Rachael – Journal of University Teaching and Learning Practice, 2016
This paper adds to the nascent literature on teaching research methods and what students learn from courses and assessment. Postgraduate students are often confronted with large amounts of reading, and the content of material can be intimidating. Convincing them also to engage critically with readings is even more difficult. We report on a…

Mirkov, Snežana – Bulgarian Comparative Education Society, 2013
The paper represents a synthesis of results obtained in empirical studies of variables related to learning process. A number of studies were carried out within the Students Approaches to Learning perspective. According to the 3P model of learning, the complex of learning process comprises three learning approaches--Deep, Surface and Achievement…

Flynn, Alison B. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2014
Organic chemistry has the long-standing reputation as a challenging course, and organic synthesis is an aspect of organic chemistry that requires students to make the most links between concepts and requires the highest order of thinking. One-on-one interviews were conducted with students from a second undergraduate organic chemistry course in…

Bañeres, David; Clarisó, Robert; Jorba, Josep; Serra, Montse – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
The synthesis of digital circuits is a basic skill in all the bachelor programmes around the ICT area of knowledge, such as Computer Science, Telecommunication Engineering or Electrical Engineering. An important hindrance in the learning process of this skill is that the existing educational tools for the design of circuits do not allow the…
