Franklin, Maxwell; Brewe, Eric; Ponnock, Annette R. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
This study examines survey data from 2127 undergraduate women at the 2015 and 2019 American Physical Society Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics (CUWiP) in order to classify what led them to study physics. We use expectancy-value and self-efficacy theory to create a coding framework based on different types of value and efficacy…

Krieglstein, Felix; Meusel, Felicia; Rothenstein, Eva; Scheller, Nadine; Wesenberg, Lukas; Rey, Günter Daniel – Smart Learning Environments, 2023
Whiteboard animations have become very popular in recent years. They are mainly used in distance education, where learners can acquire knowledge individually and without the help of a teacher. However, there is little empirical evidence on how whiteboard animations should be designed to achieve learning-enhancing effects. Since the presentation of…

Children's beliefs about the contribution of effort and ability to success and failure shape their decisions to persist or give up on challenging tasks, with consequences for their academic success. But how do children learn about the concept of "challenge"? Prior work has shown that parents' verbal responses to success and failure shape…

Matsunobu, Koji; Davidson, Robert; Lo, Khin Yee – British Journal of Music Education, 2023
This paper examines the experience and role of negative emotions in facilitating university students' learning in world music courses. Based on a review of literature in music psychology and music education, we posit that negative emotions can engender a meaningful learning context. In this project conducted in an Australian university, we created…

Cai, Rendong; Lin, Jiexuan; Dong, Yanping – Interpreter and Translator Trainer, 2023
Psychological factors may play an important role in interpreting performance and its development during training; meanwhile, the development of interpreting competence may influence psychological factors reactively. We conducted two studies to assess the bidirectional relationship between three psychological factors (self-efficacy, motivation, and…

Nunes, Krystal; Laliberté, Nicole; Rawle, Fiona – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic created an unpredictable and stressful situation for both students and instructors. With current instruction largely occurring in an online environment, we propose that increased flexibility in course structure will best support student learning. Flexible course structure offers a trauma-aware approach to teaching, is in line…
