Kadir, Munirah Shaik; Yeung, Alexander Seeshing; Caleon, Imelda Santos; Diallo, Thierno M. O.; Forbes, Anne; Koh, Wei Xun – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
Load reduction instruction (LRI) is an instructional approach designed to manage the cognitive load on students as they learn complex learning materials. According to Cognitive Load Theory, complex learning is associated with high cognitive load and when not effectively managed, could impede learning. Inquiry-based learning with hands-on…

Demelash, Minale; Belachew, Woldie; Andargie, Dereje – Online Submission, 2023
The implementation of context-based chemistry programs has been started before 40 years ago since 1980s in an attempt to make the learning of chemistry more meaningful for students. Consequent to its lengthy, there has been a steady increase in the number of interventional context-based (ICB) approach chemistry studies investigating the effect of…

Irena Labak; Senka Blazetic – Journal of Education and e-Learning Research, 2023
Teachers must enhance their teaching skills in accordance with institutional policies at higher education institutions. This research aims to determine effective professional development techniques for biology teachers in higher education. The modified OZON form (cro. obrazac za opažanje nastave, teaching observation form) facilitated…

Pawl, Andrew – Physics Teacher, 2020
Examination of my students' individual gains on the Force Concept Inventory (FCI) over the course of several semesters led to the realization that student pretest knowledge on certain key questions appeared to be correlated to enhanced gain during the class. Acting under the hypothesis that early intervention aimed at helping the class perform…

Terrell, Cassidy R.; Ekstrom, Thomas; Nguyen, Brian; Nickodem, Kyle – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Biochemistry curricula present a particular challenge to undergraduate students with abstract concepts which can lead to misconceptions that impede learning. In particular, these students have difficulty understanding enzyme structure and function concepts. Targeted learning activities and three-dimensional (3D) physical models are proposed to…

Redhana, I. Wayan; Suardana, I. Nyoman – International Journal of Instruction, 2021
Evidences showed that students' chemistry learning outcomes were still low. One of the causes was the chemistry practicums carried out so far were traditional chemistry practicums. Therefore, it needed to be reoriented towards the practicum. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the effect of green chemistry practicums on students' learning…

Lardi, Cristiana; Leopold, Claudia – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2022
We investigate an interactive teacher-generated drawing strategy in which the teacher constructs a drawing with the help of the students. The students contribute their ideas on how to visualize to-be-drawn concepts, embedded in an interactive process. The present study explored whether learning from a scientific text on plate tectonics could be…
