Douglas, Tracy; James, Allison; Earwaker, Louise; Mather, Carey; Murray, Sandra – Journal of University Teaching and Learning Practice, 2020
This research explores the perceptions of facilitators in asynchronous online discussion to improve practice and student engagement in Higher Education. Traditional didactic delivery of learning content may fail the expectations of student and academic stakeholders. The pressure to teach within constrained resources presents challenges, but also…

Vitali, Julian; Blackmore, Conner; Mortazavi, Siavash; Anderton, Ryan – International Journal of Higher Education, 2020
Anatomy and physiology courses are a foundation for numerous degrees, but experience some of the highest failure rates of all undergraduate health science programs (Higgins-Opitz & Tufts, 2014). While interventions have been developed in an attempt to remediate this concerning phenomenon, there is a paucity of evidence to determine the reason…

Fendos, Justin – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2021
Science courses containing English-language terminology are a common implement in "English as a foreign language" (EFL) countries across the globe. In many of these countries, licensing examinations place added significance on terminology competence by requiring health science graduates to demonstrate mastery of English-language anatomy…

Bullen, Jonathan; Roberts, Lynne – Higher Education Research and Development, 2019
Despite a significant body of literature espousing the transformative impacts of Australian Indigenous Studies curriculum upon students, there remains a limited body of work related to how these students experience and learn within this complex environment. This is particularly notable for research aligned with Mezirow's transformative learning…

Dmitriy Babichenko – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Electronic virtual patients (VPs) are interactive screen-based computer simulations of real-life clinical scenarios that are widely used for the purposes of health sciences education. Advances in computational modeling and availability of large patient cohort datasets from Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems have created an opportunity to…

Sarah J. Anderson; Heather A. Jamniczky; Olave E. Krigolson; Sylvain P. Coderre; Kent G. Hecker – npj Science of Learning, 2019
Advances in computer visualization enabling both 2D and 3D representation have generated tools to aid perception of spatial relationships and provide a new forum for instructional design. A key knowledge gap is the lack of understanding of how the brain neurobiologically processes and learns from spatially presented content, and new quantitative…

Fallone, Caitlin M.; Korfmacher, Katrina S.; Brosnick, Lisa; Markowitz, Dina G. – Journal of STEM Outreach, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant challenges for informal health science education, which traditionally involves face-to-face programming. We describe the adaptation of hands-on environmental health science kits for online and socially distanced informal education with diverse audiences. These hands-on science kits were traditionally…

De la Fuente, Carlos I.; Guadagnin, Eliane Celina; Kunzler, Marcos Roberto; Carpes, Felipe P. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2021
Programming is an important skill for different areas of knowledge. While in the past, programming skills were much more related to fields of computer sciences and engineering, today, professionals from different areas benefit from the ability to write codes for different applications. Furthermore, programming stimulates logical thinking, which…

Walag, Angelo Mark P.; Fajardo, Maria Teresa M.; Bacarrisas, Prosiebeth G.; Guimary, Faith M. – International Journal of Instruction, 2022
Science teacher's self-efficacy has been at the center of many investigations on students' achievement in science, teacher burnout, and teacher performance. While overly studied, this construct has not been examined with scientific literacy in depth. Thus, this study aims to identify the influence of science teacher's scientific literacy on their…

Kelley, Kristi W.; Fowlin, Julaine M.; Tawfik, Andrew A.; Anderson, Max C. – Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, 2019
Practitioners in the field of pharmacy are often confronted with ill-structured problems. Specifically, pharmacists are tasked with making patient-specific recommendations that are both safe and effective, which requires combining knowledge from the biomedical, behavioral, and pharmaceutical sciences. Given the dynamic nature of pharmacy as a…

Bullen, Jonathan; Roberts, Lynne – Australian Journal of Indigenous Education, 2019
Australian undergraduate programmes are implementing curriculum aimed at better preparing graduates to work in Indigenous health settings, but the efficacy of these programmes is largely unknown. To begin to address this, we obtained baseline data upon entry to tertiary education (Time 1) and follow-up data upon completion of an Indigenous studies…

Bengü, Elif – Athens Journal of Education, 2019
The purpose of this study is to identify students' reactions to the implementation of team-based learning as an instructional strategy in a pharmacology course in the context of a Turkish university. Team-based learning is defined as an active form of learning that not only encourages individual effort but also team involvement to learn in an…

De Oliveira, Gislaine Alves; Ferreira, Maria Beatriz Cardoso; Nunes, Luciana Neves; Ribeiro, Maria Flavia Marques – Advances in Physiology Education, 2019
Historically, Brazilian higher education teachers' pedagogical training has not been a concern. Even today, a graduate degree is the main requirement to be a faculty member. However, a set of competencies is necessary to teach: pedagogical competency, political competency, and knowledge of specific content. Most graduate training covers only…
