Bateiha, Summer; Marchionda, Hope; Autin, Melanie – Journal of Statistics Education, 2020
Many students who enroll in introductory statistics courses do not have positive attitudes about the subject. A 2012 wide-ranging study by Schau and Emmioglu showed that student attitudes do not tend to improve after completing an introductory statistics course. However, there is a need for more studies about attitudes in introductory statistics…

Mitrousias, Vasileios; Karachalios, Theofilos S.; Varitimidis, Sokratis E.; Natsis, Konstantinos; Arvanitis, Dimitrios L.; Zibis, Aristeidis H. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Human cadaveric prosections are a traditional, effective, and highly appreciated modality of anatomy learning. Plastic models are an alternative teaching modality, though few studies examine their effectiveness in learning of upper limb musculoskeletal anatomy. The purpose of this study is to investigate which modality is associated with a better…

Lunsford, Eddie; Diviney, Michael – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2020
Anatomy and Physiology should be considered a gateway course due to its challenging scope and key role as a foundational prerequisite for many degree programs. Students often encounter gateway classes early in their college career when they are academically vulnerable due to their lack of university experience. A&P teaching methods are…

Nennig, Hannah T.; Idárraga, Katrina L.; Salzer, Luke D.; Bleske-Rechek, April; Theisen, Roslyn M. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2020
Despite recent interest in online learning, systematic comparisons of online learning environments with traditional classroom environments are limited, particularly in the sciences. Here, we report on a systematic comparison of an online and face-to-face classroom for a sophomore-level, lecture-only introductory inorganic chemistry course that is…

Ralph, Vanessa R.; Lewis, Scott E. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2020
The methodological limitations education researchers face in the evaluation of reformed instruction have led to debates as to the evidence advancing evidence-based practices. To conduct more effective research, methodological pluralism in the evaluation of educational reforms can be used to complement the strengths and limitations of a corpus of…

Fung, Chak Him; Poon, Kin Keung – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
This study consisted of two stages. In stage A, 38 students were divided randomly into an experimental and a control group. The experimental group received lectures assisted by dynamic geometry software (DGS) and the control group received lectures using chalk and blackboard. The effects of DGS on metacognition and its components were…

Lackovic, Nataša; Popova, Biliana – Learning, Media and Technology, 2021
Lectures prevail as a ubiquitous teaching and learning method across universities worldwide. Whereas lectures have been conceptualized from language-centred perspectives, lectures' materiality as linked to their socio-cultural and historical meanings have been scarcely explored. To address this gap, we tackle the materiality of communication in…

Deng, Ruiqi; Benckendorff, Pierre – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2021
Past MOOC research has tended to focus on learning outcomes valued in traditional higher education settings, such as achievement and retention. This study recognises that student ratings are an important alternative outcome measure in MOOCs. This paper adopted a semiautomatic text mining approach to collect and analyse 8475 ratings and reviews…

Jensen, Jamie L.; Holt, Emily A.; Sowards, Jacob B.; Ogden, T. Heath; West, Richard E. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2018
In a flipped classroom model, learning of basic content is shifted before class while in-class time is used for concept application. Empirical and controlled research studies are lacking on the best strategies to provide the necessary pre-class content instruction. In this study, we tested three methods of pre-class content learning--interactive…

Chorianopoulos, Konstantinos – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2018
Many educational organizations are employing instructional videos in their pedagogy, but there is a limited understanding of the possible video formats. In practice, the presentation format of instructional videos ranges from direct recording of classroom teaching with a stationary camera, or screencasts with voiceover, to highly elaborate video…
