Turnip, Betty; Wahyuni, Ida; Tanjung, Yul Ifda – Journal of Education and Practice, 2016
One of the factors that can support successful learning activity is the use of learning models according to the objectives to be achieved. This study aimed to analyze the differences in problem-solving ability Physics student learning model Inquiry Training based on Just In Time Teaching [JITT] and conventional learning taught by cooperative model…

Gidena, Asay; Gebeyehu, Desta – International Journal of Science Education, 2017
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the advance organiser model (AOM) on students' academic achievement in learning work and energy. The design of the study was quasi-experimental pretest-posttest nonequivalent control groups. The total population of the study was 139 students of three sections in Endabaguna…

The Efficacy of Ecological Macro-Models in Preservice Teacher Education: Transforming States of Mind
Stibbards, Adam; Puk, Tom – Applied Environmental Education and Communication, 2011
The present study aimed to describe and evaluate a transformative, embodied, emergent learning approach to acquiring ecological literacy through higher education. A class of teacher candidates in a bachelor of education program filled out a survey, which had them rate their level of agreement with 15 items related to ecological macro-models.…

Jonassen, David H. – 1988
This study compared instructional methods using interactive video in order to test the prototype model of concept acquisition and to assess the kinds of prototypes that learners develop. The subjects were 30 graduate students at two universities, who were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups and completed an interactive video program…

Schwartz, Steven; And Others – 1987
This study examined the effectiveness of a metacourse consisting of eight lessons interspersed over a semester-long beginning course in BASIC and aimed at providing mental models, problem-solving strategies, key concepts, and other heuristic structures. The experimental group consisted of 6 teachers who taught 9 classes of a total of 132 high…

Swan, Karen – 1989
Unfortunately, much of the research devoted to Logo and problem solving has not supported the claim that Logo provides an environment in which children will develop problem solving skills, but the literature suggests that direct instruction and mediated Logo programming practice can result in the acquisition and transfer of certain problem solving…

Borton, William M. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1988
Examines the effects of systematic use of computers for the management of mathematics instruction upon mathematics performance in the elementary school. A model system for using computers to manage instruction within a student-paced, mastery-learning format is described, and treatments for the experimental and control groups are explained.…

Sfondilias, John S.; Siegel, Martin A. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1990
Describes study of university students that investigated the effects of two direct instruction techniques in a computer-based algebra lesson: the cognitive routine (CR) and the Corrective Feedback Paradigm (CFP). Research design is explained, results are analyzed, and further research is suggested. (nine references) (LRW)

Mandinach, Ellen B. – 1988
This paper examines the effect of using a systems thinking approach in existing secondary school curricula to teach content-specific knowledge as well as general problem solving skills, and the effect of using STELLA (Structural Thinking Experimental Learning Laboratory with Animation), a simulation-modeling software program, as a tool by which to…

Beishuizen, J. J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1992
Discussion of teaching complex knowledge domains through exploration highlights two experiments that investigated the educational value of a Dutch computer simulation program which models the relationship between erosion and agriculture in a developing country as part of the secondary school geography curriculum. Learning by doing versus learning…

Richey, Rita C. – 1991
Part of a larger project designed to produce a causal model of variables that impinge upon training interventions and influence adult learning, this research is concerned with learner attitudes toward the way employee training is delivered and the roles these convictions play in learning. Two research models served as a guide for comprehensive…
