For decades there have been two young driver concepts: the 'young driver problem' where the driver cohort represents a key problem for road safety; and the 'problem young driver' where a sub-sample of drivers represents the greatest road safety problem. Given difficulties associated with identifying and then modifying the behaviour of the latter group, broad countermeasures such as graduated dr...

The prevailing pattern of classroom interaction is a tripartite exchange structure known as IRF (teacher initiation, student response, teacher follow-up/feedback; Sinclair & Coulthard, 1975). Although it has its own contributions to classroom discourse, it has been criticized on several grounds, particularly for affording minimum learner participation opportunities (Kasper, 2001). An alternativ...

ion transactions Abstraction instructional transactions enable the learner to acquire class, subclass, and instance relationships between knowledge objects. Abstraction transactions promote the ability to transfer or use a skill acquired for one set of instances or subclasses with a new8 set of instances or subclasses. Abstraction transactions enable the learner to generalize knowledge by acqui...

BACKGROUND Online medical education curricula offer new tools to teach and evaluate learners. The effect on educational outcomes of using learner feedback to guide curricular revision for online learning is unknown. METHODS In this study, qualitative analysis of learner feedback gathered from an online curriculum was used to identify themes of learner feedback, and changes to the online curri...

this study builds on laufer and hulstijn’s (2001) motivational-cognitive construct of task-induced involvement in learning vocabulary and addresses itself to its strong claim that the depth of processing is the overriding factor in learning words. the paper first re-examines the effect of processing load and then of task type on the initial learning and retention of words. to do so, 60 efl lear...

LEARNING WHILE USING AN INSTRUCTIONAL SIMULATION Tayyaba Batool Old Dominion University, 2017 Director: Dr. Ginger S. Watson Learner control is thought to be valuable by some scholars who believe that it allows learners to adapt instructions to their needs while reducing cognitive load (Mayer & Moreno, 2003). Although learner control offers some advantages to the learner, the importance of an i...

ABSTRACT Mobile learning, which can be performed through numerous applications that run on smartphones, personal digital assistants, and other devices, has played a major role in education, especially during under the restrictive conditions due to COVID-19 pandemic. This paper is review of literature mobile learning efficiency education. Some application m-learning education have shown extensiv...

Page 5 1. Abstract Every system, which wants to provide personalized learning services, needs learner models in order to be able to do so. These models are the product of learner assessment and modelling by different sources, and are subject to constant changes and extensions. This Bachelor Thesis presents the conceptualization and implementation of a browsing system for open active learner mod...

An Open Learner Model makes a machines' representation of the learner available as an important means of support for learning. This means that a suitable interface is created for use by learners, and in some cases for others who aid their learning, including peers, parents and teachers. The chapter describes the range of purposes that Open Learner Models can serve, illustrating these with diver...
