Effects of Instruction-Supported Learning with Worked Examples in Quantitative Method Training

The Effect used multimedia with worked examples on learning and Retention in a mathematic course

Multimedia production increasing in recent decades, progress in education and training has been accepted as a style that should be designed according to scientific principles. One of the most important principles in its study, using the example of education. Examples are discussed education as a teaching method and are used in various ways to facilitate learning. In this study, pretest-posttest...

Learning Problem Solving Heuristics from Worked Examples

Much human learning of mathematics takes place from worked examples, yet this is a subject that has not received much study in Cognitive Science. A major problem is to ensure that a model can learn in a general way, and not be limited to a small subset of mathematics, such as Calculus. This paper describes a computational model of how students learn problem solving heuristics. The model is impl...

Learning from Examples: Instructional Principles from the Worked Examples Research

Worked examples are instructional devices that provide an expert's problem solution for a learner to study. Worked-examples research is a cognitive-experimental program that has relevance to classroom instruction and the broader educational research community. A framework for organizing the findings of this research is proposed, leading to instructional design principles. For instance, one inst...

Case based learning with worked examples in medicine: effects of errors and feedback

To facilitate medical students’ diagnostic knowledge a case-based worked example approach was realized in a complex computer-based learning environment. To enhance the effectiveness of the approach the measures erroneous examples and elaborated feedback were additionally implemented. 153 medical students were randomly assigned to four experimental conditions of a 2x2-factorial design (errors vs...
