Background: In college science laboratory and discussion sections, student-centered active learning strategies have been implemented to improve student learning outcomes and experiences. Research has shown that active learning activities can increase student anxiety if students fear that they could be negatively evaluated by their peers. Error…

Simulation training models, such as Interactive Virtual Training for Teachers (IVT-T), have relevance to consultation and show promise in supporting teachers who need behavior management support. Using an embedded mixed-method design, we examined the feasibility and effectiveness of IVT-T. Twenty seven teachers working in three K-8 schools…

Background: Research suggests that some speech-language pathologists are uncomfortable treating people who stutter. Accessing quality clinical education experiences in stuttering is difficult given the ongoing rise in students enrolled in speech-language pathology programmes and the limited number of stuttering-specific placements available.…

Understanding simple electric DC circuits often represents a great challenge to many students in lower secondary schools. As a result, students' knowledge of this subject is often dominated by alternative conceptions, even after instruction. One of the reasons for these learning difficulties is the intangibility of key physical quantities and…

As educators we strive to facilitate knowledge and ways of learning that serve students throughout their lives, but we also recognize their sometimes short retention span. The innovation we present in this article consists of the use of digital storytelling as a conduit for students to construct a narrative of their experience in a marketing…

Beyond students' ability to manipulate variables and solve problems, chemistry instructors are also interested in students developing a deeper conceptual understanding of chemistry, that is, engaging in the process of sensemaking. The concept of sensemaking transcends problem-solving and focuses on students recognizing a gap in knowledge and…

The purpose of this pilot study was to examine TeachLivE simulation used by speech--language pathology graduate students (SLP GSs) to practice questioning strategies with English learners (ELs) at various language proficiency levels. Using a communities of practice theoretical framework, data were collected through an assignment in a core…

This study used a video-based educational leadership simulation to create a safe environment for professional discourse with school leaders. The researchers used a simulation about teacher-to-teacher bullying with actors of different genders as a prompt. Two simulations were used in this study, and both simulations followed the same script.…

Simulation and game-based learning are essential applications in a learning environment as they provide learners an opportunity to apply the course material in real-life scenarios. Introducing real-life learning allows the learner to make critical decisions at different points within the simulation providing constructive education that leads to a…

Simulation and debriefing have grown in popularity as nursing programs are faced with limited clinical opportunities. The COVID-19 pandemic further emphasized the need for innovative teaching methods as nursing programs were faced with the challenge of providing clinical experiences outside of the hospital setting. The purpose of this study was to…

Teachers routinely observe and interpret student behavior to make judgements about whether and how to support their students' learning. Simulated cases can help pre-service teachers to gain this skill of diagnostic reasoning. With 118 pre-service teachers, we tested whether participants rate simulated cases presented in a serial-cue case format as…

A pretest-posttest control group design with switching replications was used to examine the effectiveness of a one-time, 75-minute behavioral skills training (BST) package. Fifty pre-service elementary general educators enrolled in a classroom management course were shown a video depicting challenging behaviors and were asked to collect…

Background: The present study aims to investigate the impact of open and closed tasks on the intrinsic motivation and language learning competence of international students enrolled at UM, following the medical Dutch course. The students look forward to improving their academic-Dutch second language in the field of Medicine. We hypothesize that…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the vocal fold structural and vibratory symmetries that are important to vocal function and voice quality in a simulated paramedian vocal fold paralysis. Method: A computational kinematic speech production model was used to simulate an exemplar "voice" on the basis of asymmetric…

Due to the complexity of latent transition analysis (LTA) model structure and qualitative decision making in LTA, power analysis has less been reported and studied. Baldwin (2015) and Gudicha, et al., (2016) recently reported results about power analysis in LTA, which included useful information. On the other hand, both studies are limited in the…
