Abstract In recent years, COVID-19 policy measures massively affected university teaching. Seeking an effective and viable way to transform their lecture material into asynchronous online settings, many lecturers relied on prerecorded video lectures. Whereas researchers in fact recommend implementing prompts to ensure students process those video lectures sufficiently, open questions about the types of prompts and role of students’ engagement remain. We thus conducted an online field experiment with teacher students at a German university (N = 124; 73 female, 49 male). According to the randoml

Abstract Background In Brazil, residency programmes in Family and Community Medicine (FCM) and Multiprofessional Residency in Family Health (MRFH) are two-year specialisation courses, funded by the federal government, which aim to train professionals to work in Primary Health Care (PHC). The aim of this study was to draw up an inventory of the assessed competences of the residency programmes in the state of Paraíba, Brazil. Our study’s hypothesis is that self-assessment of competences can be a useful tool for monitoring the development of competences in the training of health professionals, co

Background: Studies have shown the importance of metacognition in medical education. Metacognitive skills consist of two dimensions: knowledge of metacognition and regulation of metacognition. Aim: This study hypothesizes that the knowledge and regulation of metacognition is significantly different at the beginning and end of the academic year, and a correlation exists between the two dimensions of metacognitive skills with academic performance. Methods: The Metacognitive Skills Inventory comprising 52 Likert-scale items was administered to 159 first-year medical students at the University of

Classroom-based language assessment (CBLA) in the Indonesian context has become more significant since the shift of the assessment model from summative based assessment (Ujian Nasional or the final exam) to formative-based assessment (Asesmen Kompetensi Minimum (AKM); therefore, teachers need to develop their classroom-based language assessment literacy (CBLAL). The model places a greater emphasis on students' learning outcomes in class rather than final test scores. This study aims to examine the CBLAL level of experienced and novice EFL teachers, their perceptions of CBLAL, and their needs f

This study was carried out using a descriptive survey design to investigate the extent to which Open and Distance Learning (ODL) students in Nigeria manage their time effectively. One research question and two hypotheses were used in the study. Purposive sampling was used to select 312 ODL students from six centres across the geo-political zones of the country. The six centres were randomly selected from the zones. A 25-item Time Management Questionnaire (TMQ), in the form of a four-point Likert type scale adopted from the standardised Wayne University time management questionnaire, was used f

This article reports on a controlled study to investigate the efficacy of incorporating explicit discussions about the duality of human reasoning and its implications for learning in physics instruction. The central goal is to probe to what extent, if at all, such discussions improve student performance on tasks that tend to elicit intuitively appealing but incorrect responses. We hypothesized that explicitly discussing the reasoning pathways and hazards associated with the interactions between automatic process 1 and deliberate process 2 could boost students’ performance on a variety of topic

Abstract Background Prior efforts to train medical journal peer reviewers have not improved subsequent review quality, although such interventions were general and brief. We hypothesized that a manuscript-specific and more extended intervention pairing new reviewers with high-quality senior reviewers as mentors would improve subsequent review quality. Methods Over a four-year period we randomly assigned all new reviewers for Annals of Emergency Medicine to receive our standard written informational materials alone, or these materials plus a new mentoring intervention. For this program we paire

Abstract Collaborative knowledge construction (CKC) involved students’ sharing of information, improvement of ideas, and construction of collective knowledge. In this process, knowledge extraction and analysis can provide valuable insights into students’ knowledge capacities, depths, and levels in order to improve the CKC quality. However, existing studies tended to extract and analyze knowledge from a single perspective (e.g., the number of certain knowledge types and knowledge structures), which failed to demonstrate the complexity and dynamics of knowledge construction and advancement.
