This study investigates the effectiveness of two variants of a prompting strategy that guides students to focus on important
issues when learning in an ill-structured domain. Students in three groups studied individually Software Project Management
(SPM) cases for a week, using a web-based learning environment designed especially for this purpose. The first group (control)
studied the cases without any prompting. The second group (“writing mode”) studied the same cases, while prompted to provide
written answers to a set of knowledge integration prompts meant to engage students in deeper processing of the material. The
third group (“thinking mode”) studied the cases, while prompted only to think of possible answers to the same question prompts.
Results indicated that students in the writing condition group outperformed the others in both domain knowledge acquisition
and knowledge transfer post-test items. Several students in the thinking condition group skipped the question prompts, while
those that reported having reflected on the material were unable to achieve high performance comparable to the writing condition
group. Overall, the study provides evidence that the implementation of prompting techniques in technology-enhanced learning
environments may lead to improved outcomes, when combined with the requirement that students provide their answers in writing. 相似文献

Although writing learning protocols is an effective follow-up course work activity, many learners tend to do it in a rather suboptimal way. Hence, we analyzed the effects of instructional support in the form of prompts. The effects of different types of prompts were investigated in an experiment with four conditions: cognitive prompts, metacognitive prompts, a combination of cognitive and metacognitive prompts, or no prompts (N = 84 undergraduate psychology students). We found that the prompts stimulated the elicitation of cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies. The provision of purely metacognitive prompts did not, however, improve learning outcomes. Only the groups who had received cognitive, or a combination of cognitive and metacognitive, prompts learned more than the control group. This effect was mediated by cognitive learning strategies. The learners in the successful groups did not perceive the prompted learning strategies as more helpful than the learners of the group without prompts. It can be concluded that cognitive prompts—alone or in combination with metacognitive prompts—are an effective means to foster learning. However, additional means should be employed in order to convince the learner of the usefulness of such prompts. 相似文献

The aim of this research was to develop and evaluate tools and supports for self-regulated learning with hypertext information
structures, such as Web pages. Two kinds of supports for self-regulated learning were developed and tested experimentally:
Prompting and Prompting with Training. In Experiment 1, Prompting was tested with a pre-post-test between subject design,
including thinking-aloud data. Students of the experimental group (n = 20) were prompted for self-regulation activities that had to be followed while learning basic learning theory. No self-regulation
support was offered in the control group (n = 20). In Experiment 2 (Prompting with Training), the experimental group (n = 20) received a short training, in addition to the prompting: the self-regulated learning activities were explained in detail,
demonstrated and practiced right before the learning session. Again, no self-regulation support was offered in the control
group (n = 20). Analyses of learning processes and learning outcomes confirm partly the positive effects of both measures of self-regulated
learning prompts. The more extended measure (with training) had superior effects on students’ learning transfer performance
and acceptance. Implications for the design of instructional support to improve self-regulated learning with computer-based
learning environments are discussed. 相似文献

This study investigated the effectiveness of e-learning by comparing the learning outcomes in conventional face-to-face lectures and e-learning methods. Two video-based e-learning contents were developed based on the rapid prototyping model and loaded onto the learning management system (LMS), which was available at http://www.greenehrd.com. Eighty-five Korean agricultural high school students were randomly assigned into the two groups: face-to-face lecture (control group), and video-based e-learning (experimental group). The students of the experimental group logged onto the LMS in the school computer lab and completed each e-learning module. All students were required to take a pretest and posttest before and after learning under the direction of the subject teachers. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine any difference between the two groups in terms of learning outcomes. One-way analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was also administered to verify whether there was any difference between the two groups after controlling for the covariate variable: pretest score. According to the results, e-learning resulted in better learning outcomes than face-to-face lecturing. These findings suggest that the use of well designed and appropriately applied e-learning could be worthy even in agricultural education, which stresses hands-on experience and lab activities. Further research should focus on a different e-learning content type in different agricultural subject fields and its relationship with learning outcome. 相似文献

This article presents two longitudinal studies that investigated expertise reversal effects in journal writing. In Experiment
1, students wrote regular journal entries over a whole term. The experimental group received a combination of cognitive and
metacognitive prompts. The control group received no prompts. In the first half of the term, the experimental group applied
more cognitive and metacognitive strategies in their journals and showed higher learning outcomes than the control group.
Towards the end of the term, the amount of cognitive and metacognitive strategies elicited by the experimental group decreased
while the number of cognitive strategies applied by the control group increased. Accordingly, the experimental group lost
its superiority on learning outcomes. In order to avoid these negative long-term effects of prompts, a gradual and adaptive
fading-out of the prompts was introduced in the experimental group in Experiment 2 while a control group received permanent
prompts. The results showed that, over the course of the term, the fading group applied increasingly more cognitive strategies
while the control group applied fewer and fewer cognitive strategies. Accordingly, at the end of the term, the permanent prompts
group showed substantially lower learning outcomes than the fading group. Together, these results provide evidence for an
expertise reversal effect in writing-to-learn. The more the students became skilled in journal writing and internalized the
desired strategies, the more the external guidance by prompts became a redundant stimulus that interfered with the students’
internal tendency to apply the strategies and, thus, induced extraneous cognitive load. Accordingly, a gradual fading-out
of the prompts in line with the learners’ growing competencies proved to be effective in mitigating the negative side-effects
of the provided instructional support. 相似文献

This study was set up in a Chinese university in Beijing by implementing a Flemish e-learning course in a Chinese setting.
A main feature of the e-learning environment is the asynchronous ‘task-based’ online group discussion. The purpose of the
study is to understand Chinese students’ perceptions of a collaborative e-learning environment and the factors that affect
their online performance and academic achievement. The results of the study indicate that the students had less positive perceptions
of the e-learning environment as compared to their perceptions of a more conventional environment. However, the students reported
to a higher level of preferences of peer learning, critical thinking, and problem-based learning (PBL) after one semester
e-learning experience. In addition, we examined variables that might have affected students’ performance in e-learning environments.
The results show that students with higher motivational orientations perform better in the online group discussions. 相似文献

A learning activity supported by a mobile multimedia learning system (MMLS) was designed in this study. We aimed to test the effectiveness of the learning activity to enhance autonomous language learning in quasi-experimental Study 1 using a pretest/posttest design. Two groups participated in the learning activity: the students in a control group (n = 27) completed the activity using traditional approach whereas the students in an experimental group (n = 26) completed the activity using MMLS. The results of Study 1 showed that the experimental students outperformed their counterparts on the post-test (F = 29.602, p < 0.005, partial eta-squared = 0.372). In a non-experimental Study 2, the experimental students (n = 26) were assigned two learning tasks, the first task was completed individually and the second task in collaboration. We aimed to investigate which learning approach to complete tasks (i.e. individual vs. collaborative) enhances learning performance better by comparing students’ scores on two tasks. In addition, we explored students’ perceptions towards MMLS. The results of Study 2 showed that the students had better learning performance when they completed tasks in collaboration than individually. The results also showed that the students had high perceptions towards MMLS. Based on our results, we make suggestions and provide directions for future research. 相似文献

The GoKoan e-learning platform supports face-to-face training in an educational community. Its aim is to optimise the way and the time of study in order to improve academic performance. To evaluate the GoKoan platform’s effectiveness as a tool for improving academic performance, an experimental study was carried out using a sample of 171 university students enrolled in the psychology degree programme who were randomly assigned to the two different conditions (the experimental group: traditional learning + e-learning with the GoKoan platform; and the control group: traditional learning without e-learning). The findings showed that using GoKoan had a positive impact on the students’ academic performance (d = 0.39, 95 % CI [0.08, 0.69]). The results highlight the importance of blended learning in improving students’ learning performance. Other aspects of its effectiveness (e.g, the levels achieved in student learning outcomes) will be considered in future studies. 相似文献

Becoming a history teacher requires the integration of pedagogical knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, and content knowledge. Because the integration of knowledge from different disciplines is a complex task, we investigated prompted learning journals as a method to support teacher students’ knowledge integration. Fifty-two preservice history teachers participated in the experimental study. They read a text about a historical event, a text about teaching history, and a text about cognitive learning processes. Then they wrote a learning journal entry about the three texts. To support the journal writing, the participants in the experimental condition received four integration prompts, whereas the participants in the control condition received no prompts. In the prompted condition, the students engaged more often in integration strategies at the cost of rehearsal and organization strategies. Rehearsal and integration strategies predicted students’ recall of knowledge and their ability to evaluate learning tasks. Integration strategies as elicited in the journals predicted preservice teachers’ performance when designing a learning task for history education. In solving this task, the prompted preservice teachers used the information from the three texts in a more balanced way than the unprompted students who strongly focused on content knowledge. The study illustrates the potentials of learning journals as a method to support knowledge integration in history teacher education. 相似文献

This study investigated the impact of taking photos using mobile phones on the English phrase-learning performance of English as a second-language learners. A total of 116 students enrolled in a college in Central Taiwan participated in this study. The participants were divided randomly into two groups: a control group and an experimental group (EG). The control group was assigned an online phrase-reading activity for the purpose of phrase learning, whereas the EG was instructed to engage in phrase learning by taking photos using their mobile phones. The study primarily investigated the participants' daily encounters with newly acquired phrases through the use of photos taken using mobile phones, which were associated with the sentences they constructed. The results of the study indicated that the students in the EG significantly outperformed the control students on the delayed posttest, and the EG exhibited a significantly higher level of perception toward the phrase-learning activities compared with that of the control group. 相似文献

Prompting students’ context-generating cognitive activity in ill-structured domains: does the prompting mode affect learning? 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

This study was designed to investigate the impact of question prompts that guide students to focus on context-related issues
when learning through cases in an ill-structured domain. Three groups of undergraduate students studied cases during a lab-session
time period using a web-based environment. The first group studied without any question prompts. The second group studied
the same material while prompted to provide written answers to embedded questions in the cases. The third group studied while
having only to think of possible answers for the question prompts. In this study, we explored how the questioning intervention
affected students’ conceptual knowledge of the domain and their problem-solving ability. Post-tests did not reveal significant
statistical differences in the groups’ performance, indicating that under specific study conditions the prompting impact is
not traceable in the learning outcomes. This result, however, is discussed in the light of a previous study, which showed
that this context-oriented prompting method had a beneficial effect on student learning in a prolonged study-time setting,
where students were able to self-regulate their study activity.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how hybrid learning instruction affects undergraduate students' learning outcome, satisfaction and sense of community. The other aim of the present study is to examine the relationship between students' learning style and learning conditions in mixed online and face-to-face courses. A quasi-experimental design was used and 140 sophomores were recruited in this study. Students' learning outcomes, satisfaction, sense of community and learning styles were measured. Results showed that students in a hybrid course had significantly higher learning scores and satisfaction than did students of the face-to-face courses. The result also indicated that students of hybrid learning classrooms felt a stronger sense of community than did students in a traditional classroom setting. Analysis of learning style indicated that learning style had significant effect on learning outcome in the study group. Accommodator learners had higher e-learning effectiveness than other style learners. Possible reasons of results were discussed. 相似文献

This study examined whether cooperative learning and feedback facilitate situated, example-based e-learning in the field of statistics. The factors “social context” (individual vs. cooperative) and “feedback intervention” (available vs. not available) were varied; participants were 137 university students. Results showed that the feedback intervention clearly supported learning. Feedback proved especially beneficial for students with little prior knowledge. Cooperation did not promote learning outcomes; however, group performance in the learning phase was superior to individual performance. Also, cooperative learning enhanced perceived performance and perceived competence. Probably, collective efficacy had a halo effect on self-efficacy. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to explore the relationship between degree of participation and learning outcomes in an e-learning
course on medical informatics. Overall activity in using course materials and degree of participation in the discussion forums
of an online course were studied among 39 medical students. Students were able to utilise the course material in discussion
groups focusing on the lectures, quizzes and students’ own notes. Each student’s data recording of activities and individual
participation in discussion in the online course was analysed in order to assess which activities predicted learning outcome.
Higher course grades were associated with studying the course material frequently and also with regular participation in reading
postings and replying to them. There were no connections between learning outcome and the students’ original contributions
to the discussion forums. There were no statistically significant differences between male and female students in how they
utilised the various components of the learning material. 相似文献

Continuing emphasis given to computer technology resourcing in schools presents potential for web-based initiatives which focus on quality arts teaching and learning, as ways to improve arts outcomes for all students. An arts e-learning collaborative research project between specialist on-line teacher/researchers and generalist primary teachers was designed to investigate student learning, quality teaching, and implementation factors. Constructionist-based teaching activities using on-line technology were designed to engage students in a learner-centred e-learning environment where students and teachers collaborated to produce a media and learning artefact. A case study highlights the outcomes for four students who transferred learnt drama skills to other classroom contexts. This model has potential to provide drama learning for students and professional development for primary generalist teachers, contingent on the availability of rigorously planned and well-resourced programmes. 相似文献

Parent and student perceptions of classroom learning environment and its association with student outcomes 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：2
This research is distinctive in that parents’ perceptions were utilised in conjunction with students’ perceptions in investigating
science classroom learning environments among Grade 4 and 5 students in South Florida. The What Is Happening In this Class?
(WIHIC) questionnaire was modified for young students and their parents and administered to 520 students and 120 parents.
Data analyses supported the WIHIC’s factorial validity, internal consistency reliability and ability to differentiate between
the perceptions of students in different classrooms. Both students and parents preferred a more positive classroom environment
than the one perceived to be actually present, but effect sizes for actual-preferred differences were larger for parents than
for students. Associations were found between some learning environment dimensions (especially task orientation) and student
outcomes (especially attitudes). Qualitative methods suggested that students and parents were generally satisfied with the
classroom environment, but that students would prefer more investigation while parents would prefer more teacher support.
The study provides a pioneering look at how parents and students perceive the science learning environment and opens the way
for further learning environment studies involving both parents and students. 相似文献

As more and more educational institutions are providing online courses, it is necessary to design effective teaching methods integrated with technologies to benefit both teachers and students. The researcher in this study designed innovative online teaching methods of team-based learning (TBL) and co-regulated learning (CRL) to improve students' computing skills. The participants in this study were 124 undergraduates from three classes taking a compulsory course titled “Applied Information Technology: Data Processing.” There were three blended classes involved in this empirical study. The first group (EG1), which received the treatment of online TBL and CRL, and the second group (EG2), which received the treatment of online TBL only, were the experimental groups. The last group, which received the traditional teaching method, served as the control group. Before the experiment started, the author conducted a pretest to confirm that the differences of students' computing skills among the three groups were not significant at the beginning of the course. Based on the analysis of the post-test, the results indicate that students who received the intervention of online CRL had significantly better computing skills for using Excel by semester-end than those without. However, the intervention of online TBL did not contribute to better learning effects in this study. Based on the findings in this study, the author points out implications for teachers, schools, and educators, particularly for those responsible for courses focusing on solving ill-structured problems and those students who have typically received traditional didactic pedagogy for many years. 相似文献

This study investigated the effects of students' reflections, combined with suggestive feedback, on the development of self-regulated learning and learning outcomes. Suggestive feedback alerts students that further reflection is advisable, without being very directive. Forty-nine students participated in a regular web-based distance education course on work psychology. In two experimental conditions students were prompted to reflect on their learning process, and received feedback on their reflections, either from peer students or a tutor. These conditions were compared to a control condition in which students studied the regular course without reflection and feedback. In line with the hypothesis, results showed that reflection combined with feedback positively affected students' self-regulated learning. In addition, students in the condition with tutor feedback outperformed students in both other conditions on learning outcomes. 相似文献

Learning protocols are a self-guided way of writing that allows for elaboration and reflection on learning content. In an experimental study (N = 103), we supported protocol writing with prompts to elicit important strategies as postulated by a cyclical model of self-regulated learning. Students received either (a) no prompts, (b) cognitive prompts, (c) metacognitive prompts, (d) mixed prompts without, or (e) including prompts for planning of remedial strategies. Prompting all essential sub-processes of self-regulated learning (group e) fostered students' comprehension best. Thus, with appropriate support, writing can serve as a beneficial medium helping students to self-regulate their understanding of subject matter. 相似文献

Recent research on metacognition points out the crucial role of on-line methods when endeavouring to conduct valid assessments
of metacognitive skills. Presently, different on-line methods are used, however, it is still a question of research whether
and how they affect students’ learning behaviour and learning outcome. Thus, the aim of this study is to quasi-experimentally
analyse the effects of two on-line verbalisation methods on learning performance. By means of the thinking-aloud method, students
in one experimental group (n = 24) were instructed to read and think aloud during learning. With the reflection when prompted method, students of another
experimental group (n = 24) were prompted at each navigational step to reflect on the reasons why they chose specific information. Students in
the control group (n = 22) learned without being instructed to verbalise. All three groups were treated identically except for the different use
of verbalisation assessment methods. The students’ task was to learn the concepts and principles of operant conditioning presented
in a hypermedium within 30 min. The students’ learning sessions were videotaped and learning performance was obtained immediately
afterwards. Based on Ericsson and Simon’s (Protocol analysis: Verbal reports as data, MIT, Cambridge, 1993) model, no performance differences between the thinking aloud and the control group were hypothesised.
However, prompting students for metacognitive reflection should affect learning performance positively, which is confirmed
by the results only in tendency for transfer performance. Implications for on-line assessment methods of metacognitive skill
will be discussed. 相似文献
