Approaches and methodologies based on technology are becoming more widespread in education. One of these technologies, Lecture Capture (LC), is particularly beneficial in higher education, since it allows students to improve learning via flexible access to video-recorded lectures. However, while LC is becoming more widespread in higher education,…

The purpose of this study was to compare community college students' learning experiences and performance for lecture-based, active learning, and flipped classroom teaching approaches. Participants were second-semester computer programming students (n = 103) at a mid-sized college of applied arts and technology. Garrison's (2011) Community of…

Compared the test results of students allowed and not allowed to use their laptops while listening to a lecture. Students using their laptops performed more poorly on measures of memory for lecture content. (EV)

Looks at ways in which computer-assisted instruction transforms three traditional aspects of college teaching: lectures are replaced with multimedia presentations; homework becomes electronic, with instant grading and detailed explanations; and traditional office hours are replaced with electronic mail, list-serv, and live screen interaction…

Courseware was developed to facilitate knowledge transfer between lecture and laboratory for general chemistry at the University of Notre Dame (Indiana). One project uses a tutorial strategy. Another uses tool-based courseware for modeling and manipulation of simulated representations of chemical systems; worksheets guide student use of courseware…

College physics teachers describe their experience using a computer-based classroom communication system that facilitates presentation of questions for small-group work, collection of student answers, and display of histograms showing how the class answered, all feeding into classwide discussions. The technique engages students in active learning…
