First-year undergraduate nursing students enrolled in a GOB (general, organic, biological) Chemistry for Health Professions course often exhibit an initial apprehension in their chemical education. Due to students' varying backgrounds in chemistry, it becomes difficult to engage them in chemistry and gauge their comprehension of lecture concepts.…

The present retrospective, descriptive, and quasi-experimental study aimed to explore students' perceptions of traditional teaching combined with gamified and nongamified e-tests for postlecture reinforcement. Midterm knowledge retention and academic performance were also analyzed. The study was conducted from February 2021 to May 2022, involving…

Feedback is widely recognized as an effective instructional tool. Different feedback types and the efficacy of their role in the classroom have been researched extensively because all forms of feedback are impressionable to students. Research findings have indicated ways that feedback has been implemented into the classroom successfully. In this…

Explicit training is needed to support pre-service teachers in use of preventive behavior management strategies including behavior specific praise. This descriptive demonstration focused on a training process in universal prevention strategies, specifically behavior specific praise, to improve pre-service teachers' use of classroom management…

This study examined the extent to which college algebra instructors employ pedagogical practices previously found to assist students master difficult STEM content material and address their own previous math deficits. Faculty classroom behaviors were assessed with a modified version of the Generalized Observation and Reflection Platform (GORP).…

This study investigated the efficacy of behavioral skills training (BST) and interteaching in enhancing the American Psychological Association (APA) formatting skills of online graduate learners. Writing skills are foundational to academic success and professional competency, particularly in online graduate programs characterized by learners with…

Due to the nature of the teaching environment, students may often develop perceptions of their lecturers' ability as mathematicians, based on the pre-prepared and well-rehearsed content they present. In reality, performing mathematical calculations and solving problems is a difficult skill, and students may compare their own experiences…

Automaticity can be established by consistently reinforcing contingencies during practice. During reinforcement learning, however, new relations can also be derived, which were never directly reinforced. For instance, reinforcing the overlapping contingencies A [right arrow] B and A [right arrow] C, can lead to a new relation B-C, which was never…

This systematic review aimed to identify the level of impact of educational strategies for teaching tooth carving on the carving ability of undergraduate dental students. The PubMed-NCBI, Cochrane-CENTRAL, LILACS, Ibecs, BBO, Web of Science, and Scopus databases were searched in May 2019, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and two-arm…

The aim of this research is to determine the metaphoric perceptions of the teacher candidates regarding the concept of reinforcement, hint, feedback-correction, active participation and punishment used in the teaching-learning process. The study group of this research consisted of students of Education Faculty who studying at Kafkas University in…

In this dissertation, the author presents two projects regarding teaching strategies that apply to an intelligent tutoring system (ITS). The author applied multiple-solution teaching methods to the ITSs. The first project is an ITS that aims to help college students learn how to use Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) software, FreeCAD ITS. The second…

Preparing students for dealing with a world more and more densely populated with physical machines that possess learning capabilities, e.g. intelligent robots, is of the utmost importance in engineering. In this paper, we describe and analyse a design of interactive sessions devoted to the application of some machine learning (ML) methods within a…

Discrete-trial teaching is an effective teaching procedure that must be implemented with high integrity to produce optimal learning. Behavioral Skills Training (BST) has proven effective for staff training; however, BST is time and labor intensive. Computer-based instruction (CBI) programs may provide a more efficient and cost-effective…
