Direct linkGerd Kortemeyer; Christine Kortemeyer; Wolfgang Bauer – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
At large institutions of higher education, students frequently have a choice whether to attend the introductory physics sequence asynchronously online, on-site in a traditional lecture setting, or in a reformed studio setting. In this study, we investigate how these different settings are correlated with measures of self-efficacy, interest in…

Alt, Dorit – Learning Environments Research, 2015
Self-efficacy for learning, which refers to students' beliefs in their capabilities to regulate their own learning, could determine students' motivation and academic achievement and, therefore, is significant in the learning process. This study examined how educational efforts based on constructivist theory were associated with the…

Peer observation of teaching is seen as a supportive and developmental process for improving the quality of teaching in universities. Evidence is emerging that the process of observing is just as if not more valuable than being observed and given feedback. In this study lecturers completing a Foundations program in university learning and teaching…

Autin, Melanie; Bateiha, Summer; Marchionda, Hope – PRIMUS, 2013
Traditional classroom instruction consists of teacher-centered learning in which the instructor presents course material through lectures. A recent trend in higher education is the implementation of student-centered learning in which students take a more active role in the learning process. The purpose of this article is to describe the discomfort…

Gok, Tolga – Asia-Pacific Forum on Science Learning and Teaching, 2012
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of peer instruction on college students' conceptual learning, motivation, and self-efficacy in an algebra-based introductory physics course for nonmajors. Variables were studied via a quasi-experiment, Solomon four-group design on 123 students. Treatment groups were taught by peer instruction.…

Alt, Dorit – Frontline Learning Research, 2014
This study was aimed at mapping features of constructivist activities in higher education settings, constructing and validating a new scale for measuring their presence in lecture face-to-face based environments (LBE), seminars (SM), and distance learning environments (DLE). A mix-method approach was implemented in three phases. The first phase…

Brocato, Mary Anne – ProQuest LLC, 2009
Over the past ten years, traditional lecture style delivery has given way to computer-aided instruction (CAI) in post-secondary education. Developmental mathematics courses have been one of the most widely used applications. At a small community college in the Mississippi Delta, a computer assisted version of Intermediate Algebra was implemented.…

Peer reviewedSmith, James M. – Journal of Industrial Teacher Education, 1994
In an introductory computer course taught by a woman, 46 students received standard instruction, 46 received additional verbally persuasive lectures; the control group numbered 56. Classroom instruction and hands-on practice increased task and general self-efficacy regarding computers. Verbal persuasion effects were inconclusive; the intervention…
