McConnell, Tom J.; Parker, Joyce M.; Eberhardt, Jan – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2013
One of the characteristics of effective science teachers is a deep understanding of science concepts. The ability to identify, explain and apply concepts is critical in designing, delivering and assessing instruction. Because some teachers have not completed extensive courses in some areas of science, especially in middle and elementary grades,…

Nievelstein, Fleurie; van Gog, Tamara; van Dijck, Gijs; Boshuizen, Henny P. A. – Contemporary Educational Psychology, 2013
The worked example effect indicates that learning by studying worked examples is more effective than learning by solving the equivalent problems. The expertise reversal effect indicates that this is only the case for novice learners; once prior knowledge of the task is available problem solving becomes more effective for learning. These effects,…

Kamp, Rachelle J. A.; Dolmans, Diana H. J. M.; Van Berkel, Henk J. M.; Schmidt, Henk G. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2013
Within Problem-Based Learning successful learning depends on the quality of cognitive, social and motivational contributions students make to the tutorial group. But at the same time, not all students in PBL automatically contribute in a high quality manner, which might impede successful group functioning. This study investigated whether peer…

Maines, Laina L.; Bruch, Martha D. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2012
General chemistry students often have difficulty writing balanced equations and performing stoichiometry calculations for precipitation reactions, in part because of difficulty understanding the symbolic notation used to represent chemical reactions. We have developed a problem-based experiment to improve student learning of these concepts, and…
