Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of using a multimedia (hypermedia) instructional delivery system on content learning (achievement) for various learning styles of high school zoology students. Educators have long realized that it is impossible to teach students all they need to know, especially today with the evolution of an information society. The literature reviewed for this study indicates that there is a definite movement for change and restructuring in education and use of technology will definitely play a major role in these changes.

<p> The purpose of this quantitative experimental study was to test the impact of three learning interventions on student learning and satisfaction when the interventions were embedded in the instructional design of case-based, Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI) modules for learning liver pathology in an in-class, self-study, laboratory exercise during a Year-2 medical school Pathology course. The hypothesis was that inclusion of the learning interventions would enhance student satisfaction in using the CAI and improve subsequent CAI-directed exam performance.

Course timetabling is a well known constraint satisfaction optimization (CSOP) problem, which needs to be solved in educational institutions regularly.

We decompose the problem into several sub-problems with reduced complexity, which are solved in separate phases. In phase-1a we assign lectures to professors, phase-1b assigns labs and tutorials to academic assistances and graduate assistants. Phase-2 assig

We propose a new recommendation approach that combines both ordering patterns of items learned from data and estimated user interests in providing a personalized sequence of recommendations that take into account item inter-dependencies. Our approach is based on modeling the rec

Abstract:

Inquiry-based science instruction is a major goal of science education reform. However, there is little research examining how preservice elementary teachers might be motivated to teach through inquiry. This quantitative study was designed to examine the role of background experiences and an inquiry science methods course on interest in science and interest in teaching science. The course included many activities and assignments at varying levels of inquiry, designed to teach content and inquiry methods and to model effective teaching. The study involved analyses of surveys completed by studen

Abstract:

Preloading student satisfaction and success factors into an online program orientation course can strengthen the potential for student retention and success. A 100% online graduate nursing orientation and guidance program was developed. Access to peer support, faculty advisor, and university resources were provided within the course using the same learning management system as the program. Students were taught the basic structure of courses (including discussions, quizzes, and dropbox) to ease the stress of the first few weeks of class. Graduate study requirements and expectations were explain

Abstract:

Decreasing enrollments, lower rates of student retention and changes in the learning styles of today's students are all issues that the Computer Science (CS) academic community is currently facing. As a result, CS educators are being challenged to find the right blend of technology and pedagogy for their curriculum in order to help students persist through the major and produce strong graduates. Visual technologies are being explored as a way to present difficult programming concepts in a manner that is easier to visualize and simpler to use. Visual technologies can make learning programming e
