Bergey, Bradley W.; Cromley, Jennifer G.; Kaplan, Avi; Bloxton, James D., II – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023
Question generation is theorized to support comprehension, self-regulation, and achievement, yet the empirical base for whether and how student-generated questions are associated with comprehension monitoring and whether they predict performance remain open questions. To address these, we investigated the questions undergraduate students in an…

Xiang Ren Tan; Andy Thiam-Huat Lee; Karthik Subramhanya Harve; Bernard Pui Lam Leung – Advances in Physiology Education, 2025
Muscle physiology is often perceived as a complex topic by students because of the hierarchical concepts and the need for integrative understanding. Breaking down content in a structured manner allows for segmented bite-sized learning that may enhance students' learning beyond conventional online lectures. We compared the effectiveness of 1)…

Garlington, Tamera; Ryan, Valerie M.; Nolty, Catherine; Ilagan, Hannah; Kunicki, Zachary J. – Teaching of Psychology, 2021
Social justice is an American Psychological Association (APA) ethical principal which is often taught in content courses (e.g. social psychology, developmental psychology, introductory psychology) but rarely covered in psychological statistics courses. This is problematic, as psychology students may assume that bias is not an issue when…

Waluyo, Lud; Rahardjanto, Abdulkadir – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2022
Students' understanding of the concepts that underlie evolution are often less than optimal and make it difficult for them to accept the theory of evolution. The aimed of this study were to: 1) map students' knowledge of Mutation and Recombination (M and R); and 2) analyze the effect of gender on their chairperson. This survey research involving…

Wang, Ying; Lewis, Scott E. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2020
Conceptually understanding chemistry requires the ability to transition among representational levels to use an understanding of submicroscopic entities and properties to explain macroscopic phenomena. Past literature describes student struggles with these transitions but provides limited information about upper-level post-secondary chemistry…

Martín, Carmen; Moreno Segarra, Ignacio; Ibáñez, Miguel A.; Mira, Sara; Fajardo, Carmen; González-Benito, Maria Elena – Education Sciences, 2021
The main objective of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two learning methodologies in a Plant Tissue Culture course of a Biotechnology degree--lecture-based and hybrid project-based learning--in which a project assignment was included. The effectiveness of these two systems was compared based on the students' knowledge…

Ludvigsen, Kristine; Krumsvik, Rune Johan; Breivik, Jens – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
This study investigated the characteristics of peer discussions used to support formative assessment in lectures, facilitated by a student response system, in an undergraduate qualitative methods course for psychology students. The intent was to examine the characteristics of peer discussions in which student response systems are used to…

Allen, Abigail A. – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2023
Content acquisition podcasts (CAPs) are a popular tool in special educator preparation but little is known about their application to communication disorders. This quasi-experimental study investigated the effectiveness of two instructional methods: lecture plus video and a content acquisition podcast (CAP). Participants were undergraduates in…

Fries, Laura; DeCaro, Marci S.; Ramirez, Gerardo – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Research demonstrates that seductive details negatively impact learning from instructional materials such as textbooks and learning modules. Yet, anecdotally, teachers and students consider seductive details an enhancement to classroom lectures. We examined this apparent disconnect by exploring the impact of seductive details in mathematics…

Tawfik, Andrew A.; Hung, Woei; Giabbanelli, Philippe J. – Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, 2020
To date, there are currently many variations of inquiry-based instruction including problem-based learning (PBL), lecture prior to problem solving, and case-based learning (CBL). While each claim to support problem-solving, they also include different levels of student-centeredness and instructor support. From an educational perspective, further…

Weaver, Joanna P. – ProQuest LLC, 2019
This study tested the hypothesis that exploratory learning, with and without analogous problems, would improve students' ability to make connections between conceptually-related topics. In this randomized experiment, undergraduates in introductory physics (N = 171) studied a new topic under three different instructional conditions. Order and type…

List, Alexandra; Peterson, Emily Grossnickle; Alexander, Patricia A.; Loyens, Sofie M. M. – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2018
Beliefs about knowledge have been found to relate to a variety of student outcomes and to vary across educational domains and instructional contexts. However, there are limited data on students' beliefs about information and truth, vis-à-vis knowledge (i.e., epistemic beliefs) and how these beliefs differ across instructional settings.…

Rubenking, Bridget; Dodd, Melissa – Communication Teacher, 2018
Previous research suggests that undergraduate research methods students doubt the utility of course content and experience math and research anxiety. Research also suggests involving students in hands-on, applied research activities, although empirical data on the scope and nature of these activities are lacking. This study compared academic…

Zangori, Laura; Koontz, Jason A. – Journal of Biological Education, 2017
Undergraduate biology majors require biological literacy about the critical and dynamic relationships between plants and ecosystems and the effect human-made processes have on these systems. To support students in understanding systems relationships, we redesigned an undergraduate botany course using an ecological framework and embedded systems…
