Tai, Joanna H.-M.; Haines, Terry P.; Canny, Benedict J.; Molloy, Elizabeth K. – Journal of Peer Learning, 2014
Peer assisted learning (PAL) is implemented in many undergraduate medical programs, largely in classroom-based learning. There is relatively less knowledge about the use of PAL in clinical education environments. This study explores how PAL is experienced and perceived by Year 3 medical students who are new to the clinical environment. Students…

Discussions of the quality of learning in university education often focus on curricula. Less attention is paid to the role of student-staff interactions. In a context in which a host of factors place pressure on the opportunities for students and staff to interact, it is important to use empirical insights to inform decisions about how to…

Palmer, Stuart; Holt, Dale – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2014
Academic staff play a fundamental role in the use of online learning environments (OLEs) by students, yet studies investigating the perspectives of staff are limited, and the least common investigations are those comparing the relative perceptions of students and staff. Many OLE evaluations present a point-in-time snapshot of the system, but…

Benson, Steve – Online Submission, 2012
In Australia, academic workloads are increasing, and university funding is decreasing. Academics and university managers are engaging in risk adverse behavior and tending to focus on customer satisfaction and student retention, potentially at the expense of academic standards. Conventional approaches to pedagogy minimize adverse student feedback,…

Mak, Anita S.; Bodycott, Peter; Ramburuth, Prem – Journal of Studies in International Education, 2015
As international students navigate in a foreign educational environment, having higher levels of coping or stress-resistance resources--both internal and external--could be related to increased satisfaction with personal and university life. The internal coping resources examined in this study were host language proficiency, self-esteem,…

Paton-Walsh, Clare – Journal of University Teaching and Learning Practice, 2015
This paper describes a study aimed at assessing the ability of report templates to help students learn key concepts during undergraduate laboratory classes. The report templates were designed so that a set of assessment questions led the students through the logical steps required to perform the laboratory exercise and to calculate the required…

Windsor, Tim D.; Curtis, Rachel G.; Luszcz, Mary A. – Developmental Psychology, 2015
Having a sense of purpose is recognized as an important resource for maintaining health and well-being over the life span. We examined associations of individual differences in sense of purpose with levels and rates of change in indices of aging well (health, cognition, and depressive symptoms) in a sample of 1,475 older adults (M[subscript age] =…

Cerni, Tom; Curtis, Guy J.; Colmar, Susan H. – Journal of School Leadership, 2014
Research has shown that school principals who display transformational leadership are likely to influence organizational commitment and job satisfaction (Koh, 1990), and this in turn is thought to influence student learning outcomes. Based on a sample of experienced educational leaders (n = 88), this study examined if transformational leadership…

Trigwell, Keith; Rodriguez, Katia Caballero; Han, Feifei – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2012
Four different indicators are used to assess the impact of a year-long university teaching development programme in an Australian research-led university. All four indicators show small positive outcomes. Teachers who complete the programme have higher rates of receipt of teaching awards and teaching development grants than their colleagues who do…

Yezdani, Omer – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2015
In two decades, Australian university students have accumulated over $25 billion in debt, a figure that is expected to increase dramatically over the next few years. The literature has rarely considered students' attitudes about ancillary services and amenities, despite their importance to the character of university life and substantial…

Waha, Barbara; Davis, Kate – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2014
This research project explored students' perspective of the appropriate mix of online and face-to-face activities in a master's programme in library and information science at an Australian university. Identifying aspects that students evaluate as supportive, challenging and efficient in their learning is important for the design of an appropriate…

Smith, Calvin; Worsfold, Kate – Studies in Higher Education, 2014
With the increasing adoption of work-integrated learning (WIL) as a feature of curricula, the idea of student satisfaction takes on a new dimension--students' experiences on placement are not routinely under the control of university academic staff, yet universities will ultimately be held responsible for the quality of students' placement…
