Werth, Alexandra; Oliver, Kristin; West, Colin G.; Lewandowski, H. J. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Instructional labs: Improving traditions and new directions.] Over the last decade, course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have been recognized as a way to improve undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education by engaging students in authentic research…

Sampaio, Cristina; Wang, Ranxiao Frances – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
People's expectations help them make judgments about the world. In the area of spatial memory, the interaction of existing knowledge with incoming information is best illustrated in the category effect, a bias in positioning a target toward the prototypical location of its region (Huttenlocher et al., 1991). According to Bayesian principles, these…

van der Graaf, Joep; Lim, Lyn; Fan, Yizhou; Kilgour, Jonathan; Moore, Johanna; Gaševic, Dragan; Bannert, Maria; Molenaar, Inge – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Self-regulated learning (SRL) has been linked to improved learning and corresponding learning outcomes. However, there is a need for more precise insights into how SRL during learning contributes to specific learning outcomes. We operationalised four learning outcomes that varied on two dimensions: structure/connectedness and level/deepness of…

Klein-Collins, Rebecca; Framularo, Charles – Council for Adult and Experiential Learning, 2022
Previous research has shown that when adult students receive credit for their prior learning (CPL), they are more likely to complete credentials while saving time and money doing so. In addition, colleges and universities can also benefit from CPL: adult students who earn credit through CPL are more likely to persist toward completion, and so they…

Lamb, Deanna Marie – ProQuest LLC, 2022
A growing number of university graduates delay workforce entry to reverse transfer to a community college for additional training. This trend is common in 2-year physical therapist assistant (PTA) programs where over 34% of all PTA students have a prior earned bachelor's degree. The problem addressed in this study is that little research is…

Bell, Courtney; Phelps, Geoffrey; McCaffrey, Dan; Liu, Shuangshuang; Weren, Barbara; Glazer, Nancy; Forzani, Francesca – Wisconsin Center for Education Research, 2022
The recent turn toward core practices and practice-based teacher education has been accompanied by a growing literature on the definitions, pedagogies to teach, and assessments of core practices. Despite these developments, the field lacks core practices performance assessments designed to be used across course sections, courses, and subjects.…

Allison Liu; Jenny Yun-Chen Chan; Ji-Eun Lee; Lauren E. Decker-Woodrow; Shihfen Tu; Adam Sales; Craig A. Mason – Grantee Submission, 2022
The current study investigated how prior knowledge moderated the effects of three educational technologies ("From Here to There," "DragonBox 12+," and problem sets in "ASSISTments") on seventh-grade students' later algebraic knowledge. Pretest scores only moderated effects of "From Here to There," with…

Daniel Katz; Anne Corinne Huggins-Manley; Walter Leite – Grantee Submission, 2022
According to the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (2014), one aspect of test fairness concerns examinees having comparable opportunities to learn prior to taking tests. Meanwhile, many researchers are developing platforms enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI) that can personalize curriculum to individual student needs. This…

Margaret E. Weaver; Kailyn Shartel Hall; Tracey A. Glaessgen – Journal of Basic Writing, 2022
Despite the push for all institutions of higher learning to embrace a corequisite model for writing instruction, there is limited evidence that suggests this model is desirable for all students. This study seeks to expand our understanding of the characteristics of students enrolled in Basic Writing at a 4-year comprehensive university, and the…

Beheshtian, Cheyenne; Garcia, Vanessa Elena; Zhu-Hui Ng, Tiffany; Alkhatib, Sarah; Quang, Erica; Cho, Kira Jinju; Nguyen, Timothy Duy; Le, Dustin Nguyen; Kadandale, Pavan – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
A large body of literature has established the benefits of undergraduate research experiences via the traditional apprenticeship model. More recently, several studies have shown that many of these benefits can be recapitulated in course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) that are more scalable and easier for students to participate…

Online assessments are needed during the prevailing pandemic situation to continue educational activities while ensuring safety. After conducting the online practical assessment (OPrA) in Biochemistry, we analyzed the students' responses. The blueprint of the OPrA was prepared by the faculty, referring to the various levels and domains of Bloom's…

Fernández-Barros, Andrea; Duran, David; Viladot, Laia – Music Education Research, 2023
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential and limitations of peer tutoring in the development of the intonation of violin and viola students in elementary music education. Researchers have found that peer tutoring is a highly beneficial learning strategy. Peer tutoring is defined as the pairing of learners in an asymmetric…

Ludewig, Ulrich; Hübner, Nicolas; Schroeder, Sascha – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
Vocabulary knowledge is one of the most important elements of reading comprehension. Text coverage is the proportion of known words in a given text. We hypothesize that text comprehension increases exponentially with text coverage due to network effects and activation of prior knowledge. In addition, the lexical threshold hypothesis states that…

Armoni, Michal; Gal-Ezer, Judith – Informatics in Education, 2023
In a previous publication we examined the connections between high-school computer science (CS) and computing higher education. The results were promising -- students who were exposed to computing in high school were more likely to take one of the computing disciplines. However, these correlations were not necessarily causal. Possibly those…
