Hwang, Isabel; Wong, Kevin; Lam, Shun Leung; Lam, Paul – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2015
Student response systems (commonly called "clickers") are valuable tools for engaging students in classroom interactions. In this study, we investigated the use of two types of response systems (a traditional clicker and a mobile device) by students in human physiology courses. Our results showed high student satisfaction with the use of…

Meek, Sarah E. M.; Blakemore, Louise; Marks, Leah – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2017
Many aspects of higher education must be reconceptualised for massive open online courses (MOOCs). Formative and summative assessment of qualitative work in particular requires novel approaches to cope with the numbers involved. Peer review has been proposed as one solution, and has been widely adopted by major MOOC providers, but there is…

Naomi Lee; Alfreda Nelson; Vanessa Svihla – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2018
Literature shows that students who enter the science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medical-related (STEMM) pipeline at earlier stages of their career are more likely to be successful. This is especially true for underrepresented and economically disadvantaged students. Despite the increasing number of students entering the pipeline,…

Troop, Don – Chronicle of Higher Education, 2013
The sale of bodily goods or services--"body commodification"--is nothing new among college students. But strides in medical technology, the encroachment of market values on all facets of life, and the reach and culture of the Internet have combined to create a fertile environment for people who want or need to exploit the value of their skin or…
