An epistemologically and cognitively founded pedagogical learning/teaching model tackling these goals is developed. Possible solutions will be suggested by developing a meta-model for learning/teaching processes in a stepwise manner. It turns out that philosophy of science concepts play a crucial role in these processes. Furthermore, the role of micro-learning and technologically supported (mob...

Evaluation is an unavoidable feature in any teaching or learning scenario. The evaluation strategy of students differs widely throughout the world. Further, most of the institutes do not use any objective technique to assess the teaching performance of a teacher. The present paper defines performance metrics both for student and teacher evaluation and also discusses the methodology for calculat...

This study aims (1) to find out the students' capabilities in closed-ended teaching method; (2) open-ended method with a scenario; (3) whether there is an effect of scenario on solve automotive electrical system problems problem-based scenarios. The research subject involved whole class (consisting 25 students) selected by purposive sampling technique. data were collected through observation, t...

OBJECTIVE To identify faculty perceptions of simulation insertion in the undergraduate program, considering the advantages and challenges posed by this resource. METHODS We conducted a qualitative study with intentional sampling according to pre-defined criteria, following a semi-structured outline regarding data saturation. We have interviewed 14 healthcare instructors from a teaching instit...

Manually searching the web for medical literature and teaching materials is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Content Correlation automatically creates semantic links among documents from different collections. As a result, navigating from a patient report to online medical documents is much easier for the user. In this paper, we present a knowledge-based (e.g. UMLS) approach for content corr...

We present an integrated framework that permits implicit task learning and kinesthetic teaching during the execution of robotic tasks in cooperation with humans. The proposed system combines physical human-robot interaction, attentional supervision, multimodal interaction to support robot teaching and incremental task learning. We describe the overall system architecture discussing a task learn...

Schools of nursing are challenged to find clinical placements in public health settings. Use of simulation can address situations unique to public health, with attention to specific concerns, such as environmental health. Environmental health is an integral part of public health nursing and is a standard of professional practice. Current simulations focus on acute care situations, offering limi...
