This paper describes the ways that students’ problem-solving behaviors evolve when solving multi-faceted, context-rich problems
within a web-based learning environment. During the semester, groups of two or three students worked on five physics problems
that required drawing on more than one concept and, hence, could not be readily solved with simple “plug-and-chug” strategies.
The problems were presented to students in a data-rich, online problem-based learning environment that tracked which information
items were selected by students as they attempted to solve the problem. The students also completed a variety of tasks, like
entering an initial qualitative analysis of the problem into an online form. Students were not constrained to complete these
tasks in any specific order. As they gained more experience in solving context-rich physics problems, student groups showed
some progression towards expert-like behavior as they completed qualitative analysis earlier and were more selective in their
perusal of informational resources. However, there was room for more improvement as approximately half of the groups still
completed the qualitative analysis task towards the end of the problem-solving process rather than at the beginning of the
task when it would have been most useful to their work. 相似文献

Many introductory biochemistry students have problems understanding metabolism and acquiring the skills necessary to study
metabolic pathways. In this paper we suggest that this may be largely due to the use of a traditional teaching approach which
emphasises memorisation rather than understanding. We present an alternative approach to teaching carbohydrate metabolism
which is designed to promote understanding of pathways. The approach also enables regular monitoring of, and reflection on,
student progress and the identification of student reasoning and conceptual difficulties through the use of specially designed
problems. Preliminary results are presented giving examples of specific student difficulties and the extent to which they
were addressed by the alternative instructional approach. A qualitative evaluation of the approach is also presented.

Application of physiological methods, in particular electroencephalography (EEG), offers new and promising approaches to educational
psychology research. EEG is identified as a physiological index that can serve as an online, continuous measure of cognitive
load detecting subtle fluctuations in instantaneous load, which can help explain effects of instructional interventions when
measures of overall cognitive load fail to reflect such differences in cognitive processing. This paper presents a review
of seminal literature on the use of continuous EEG to measure cognitive load and describes two case studies on learning from
hypertext and multimedia that employed EEG methodology to collect and analyze cognitive load data. 相似文献

The use of problem-solving in science instruction implies a change in the teacher's role from dispensing content information
to encouraging critical reflective thinking in the student. For problem-solving to become an integral part of the science
curriculum, teachers must make it the focus of their instruction. This study investigated the extent to which pre-service
primary teachers used the problem-solving approach in their science instruction. It also identified the factors affecting
their efforts to teach science using this approach. The issues considered are important in whether problem-solving becomes
part of the science curriculum, as teaching behaviour influences student learning outcomes.

The main objective of this research paper is to introduce the concept of medical libraries, and to survey the present status of medical libraries in the State of Bahrain in terms of their history, collections, staff, and services. The study gives a general background about the State of Bahrain and its libraries. It also discusses the main problems facing medical libraries in Bahrain. Finally, the study gives some recommendations for developing medical libraries in Bahrain. Personal interviews and documents were used for collecting the information. 相似文献

From an instrumental view, conceptual frameworks that are carefully assembled from existing literature in Educational Technology and related disciplines can help students structure all aspects of inquiry. In this article we detail how the development of a conceptual framework that connects theory, practice and method is scaffolded and facilitated in an online doctoral program in Educational Technology. For online professional practice students, conceptual frameworks provide a lens to critically examine experiential knowledge and a solid foundation for the implementation of interdisciplinary research at a distance from their university campus and faculty mentors. 相似文献
