Climate is a topic of great concern to students, but it remains difficult to discuss scientifically. We are bombarded daily by emotional messaging for and against the proposition that human activities are altering the climate in ways that may have catastrophic effects. But it often seems that those predictions rest entirely on massive computer…

Navarro Jover, José Manuel; Martínez Ramírez, José Antonio – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2018
The question of where students sit in a classroom has been widely studied under different approaches since the beginning of the 20th century. In this study, the data related to the seating location of the students in the computer-aided design practice lecture at the university were recorded and arranged, to analyse their seating preferences, their…

Glodowski, Kathryn; Thompson, Rachel – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2018
Guided notes covering lectures have been shown to improve note quality and increase scores on quizzes covering lecture material. We sought to determine whether guided notes would also be beneficial in helping students prepare for quizzes covering assigned readings. We evaluated the efficacy of guided notes for reading assignments on…

Radzimski, Vanessa; Leung, Fok-Shuen; Sargent, Pam; Prat, Alain – PRIMUS, 2021
We discuss an innovative course model used in first-year calculus courses at a large North American research university, which we refer to as the "Blended Model." We argue that our model takes the best features of lectures, flipped classrooms, and traditional recitations, and gathers them into a cohesive, robust structure that benefits…

To investigate patterns of gender-based performance gaps, we conducted a meta-analysis of published studies and unpublished data collected across 169 undergraduate biology and chemistry courses. While we did not detect an overall gender gap in performance, heterogeneity analyses suggested further analysis was warranted, so we investigated whether…

Quardokus Fisher, Kathleen; Koretsky, Milo D. – Higher Education Research and Development, 2021
There have been calls for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) faculty in higher education to transition from traditional lecturing to instructional practices that are supported by empirical evidence. Administrators can coordinate such transitions through organized change initiatives. At the same time, there has been a shift…

Bredow, Carrie A.; Roehling, Patricia V.; Knorp, Alexandra J.; Sweet, Andrea M. – Review of Educational Research, 2021
Although flipped classroom pedagogies have been widely touted for their ability to foster diverse 21st-century learning objectives, previous syntheses of flipped learning have focused almost exclusively on outcomes related to academic achievement. Using data from 317 studies, our research addresses this deficit by providing a comprehensive…

To Attend or Not--The Reasoning behind Nursing Students' Attendance at Lectures: A Qualitative Study
Forsgren, Susanne; Christensson, Tanja; Rudolfsson, Gudrun; Rejnö, Åsa – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2021
There is a rising tendency for students in higher education not to attend lectures. Therefore, the aim of the study was to describe the reasoning behind nursing students' decisions on whether or not to attend lectures. This qualitative study was performed in a nursing education programme at a Swedish University. One hundred and thirty-one students…

Al-Jarf, Reima – Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
The author used Periscope to broadcast live language, translation and technology lectures to her Twitter followers. The Periscope lecture analytics showed that lectures with the highest viewers, impressions and engagement were those about how to develop translation and interpreting skills and how to integrate Elluminate in teaching.…

Kácovský, Petr; Snetinová, Marie – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Despite the contemporary emphasis on students' practical work, lecture demonstrations with their unique power to stimulate students' interest remain an inseparable part of physics education. At our faculty, performing physics demonstrations for upper secondary students (DEMOs) has a tradition lasting three decades. In our study, we sought to…

Santangelo, Jessica; Cadieux, Marissa; Zapata, Samantha – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2021
The mismatch between high school and college learning environments creates a barrier to student success in STEM majors in college. The high school learning environment relies on surface learning in which skills such as re-reading and memorizing are sufficient for academic success. The college learning environment, particularly in STEM disciplines,…
