Previously, we described a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) for first-year students that featured a unique approach to brain mapping in a model organism (rat). In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we adapted this course for an online learning environment, emphasizing image analysis (identifying immunoreactive signal in an…

Practical classes are critical instructional activities in facilitating learning and motivation in health sciences education. With increasing pedagogical activities being conducted in virtual or remote settings, this study assessed how a remote practical assisted by physiological monitoring smartphone applications impacted student motivation and…

Background: This study compared differences in work roles and functions, employment settings, job titles, and compensation received over a 12-year time period as reported by two different samples of undergraduate-trained personnel. Method: Using the same survey instrument from an earlier investigation conducted by Herbert et al. (2010), data from…

Purpose: People use self-talk (verbalized cognitions) to monitor and evaluate their performance, making it a vital construct in the self-regulation process. Research Methods/Approach: We coded 1,092 self-talk responses from 177 undergraduates for two types of self-talks, constructive and dysfunctional. Findings: We found constructive self-talk…

The purpose of this study is to develop an intervention framework based on video clickstream interactions for delivering superior user experience for video lectures. Apart from existing studies on data-driven interventions, this study focuses on video clickstream interactions to identify timely interventions for creating interactive video…

The present study examined the level of outcome satisfaction of two main engineering courses taken by students in the Architectural Engineering department (AE) by evaluating the students' satisfaction result (SR), the attained level of the students' opinions (SO), and the instructors' opinions (IO). The AE program in United Arab Emirates…

During the COVID-19 epidemic, online teaching was widely used at Nanjing Medical University. Based on the practice, student evaluation surveys were used as the main assessment to analyze the effect of online teaching. Eventually, 826 undergraduates at Nanjing Medical University participated in the questionnaire survey. This study described the…

Purpose: There are several barriers to medical students being conversant with current digital health tools. A few examples of them are an overburdened curriculum, inadequate resources, and financial challenges. The conventional educational environment was unable to fully unleashed students' literacy on health-related technology. Thus, this study…

Students who face life's challenges with a clear focus on agency and who feel that they are in control should also be making more progress in exploring and committing to aspects of their identity (see Schwartz et al., 2005) and have greater well-being (e.g., McLean et al., 2019). Agency is a fundamental motivational drive that is reflected in the…

Higher education has historically focused on demographics to target prospective students in recruitment and retention efforts. This study focuses on the effect of psychographic and behavioral elements at the learner level to identify student segments and to influence the outcomes that lead to retention and ultimately graduation. Psychographics…

Purpose: The past decade has seen a proliferation of research on service quality in education. However, little attempt has been made to understand the impact of student perceived service quality on sustainability practices of the university or the effect of such practices on student satisfaction. To bridge this gap, this paper aims to propose a…

Interfaces with good usability help their users complete more tasks in less time and with less effort, which gives them greater satisfaction. Given the vast array of options available to users today, usability is an important interface feature that may lead to the commercial success or failure of a software system. Despite its importance, few…

The purpose of this study was to explore whether a flipped classroom approach could be applied to academic advising to further student learning and development. The research questions that guided this study explored how students and advisors experience a flipped advising approach, how students self-reported satisfaction with the flipped advising…
