Exploring studio-based instructional models for computing education

A Comparative Study of Learning and Motivation in Continuing Medical Education Based on Integrated Instructional and Motivational Design Models

Introduction: There are few studies that compare electronic learning in continuing medical education using instructional material developed based on scientific principles of instructional and motivational designs. Therefore, this study was performed in Kermanshah University of Medical Science in 2011 in order to compare physicians’ learning and motivation in these two instructional approaches. ...

A New Paradigm for Design Studio Education

There is a feeling among many design educators today that the discipline has reached a crisis in its development, and that change is needed immediately in the way that design educators articulate their epistemology and their methodology. The architectural studio can be seen as the model for design education, and its culture is exemplary. Donald Schön has often argued that the professional educa...

Successful Studio-based Real-World Projects in IT Education

An important aspect of University teaching is to promote deeper learning by ensuring students have good exposure to problems they will encounter in their working life. While it is not possible to reproduce every situation that will occur in an area of employment, it is possible to provide students with experience from which they can utilise principles and approaches in order to gain the necessa...

Exploring System Performance with SAS® Simulation Studio

Discrete event simulation is used to model, study, plan, and improve systems in which random events play a dominant role. These systems are often driven by complicated mathematical and logical relationships, making it impossible to derive an analytical solution. The journal OR/MS Today cites simulation software as one of the most widely used tools in operations research, due in part to its appl...
