Introduction: We evaluated the effects of implementing Team-Based Learning (TBL) on student engagement, accountability,satisfaction, and preference for lecture or team-based learning.Moreover, we assessed the effect of TBL on knowledge retentionand application over time through short answer questions based onclinical scenarios addressing history taking and diagnosis skills inmedical students.Me...

The RoboCup Rescue Simulation League aims to benchmark the intelligence of software agents and robots on their capabilities to make autonomously the right decisions in a disaster response scenario. The UvA Rescue and Distribot team have come together to work cooperatively to support this aim in two ways. One aspect is to advance the popularity of this League by presenting the background of the ...

For improving the efficiency of resource use in dynamic network environment, the computational model base on multiagent is adopted, and an effective learning model based on the reinforcement learning and the multi-level organization learning is proposed in this paper. A series of formal definitions, such as the dynamic network grid (DNG), the computing agent, the cooperation computing team and ...

Depending on how a learner reacts to the test instances, supervised learning divided into eager learning and lazy learning. Lazy learners endeavor to find local optimal solutions for each particular test instance. Many approaches for constructing lazy learning have been developed, one of the successful one is to incorporate lazy learning with ensemble classification. Almost all lazy learning sc...

OBJECTIVES To assess students' performance and perceptions of team-based and mixed active-learning methods in 2 ambulatory care elective courses, and to describe faculty members' perceptions of team-based learning. METHODS Using the 2 teaching methods, students' grades were compared. Students' perceptions were assessed through 2 anonymous course evaluation instruments. Faculty members who tau...

The purpose of this paper is to present the principle of our framework CoPeFoot dedicated to the study of dynamic and collaborative situations. This research work aims to instate learning by the co-construction of such situations. The article starts by recalling constraints induced by such situations. Next, it introduces interactive co-construction assumption and their implementation in CoPeFoo...

Integrating and extending literature on international management and team effectiveness, we examined how macro context in multinational organizations (MNCs) influences work team learning and how team learning influences task performance and interpersonal relations. We examined these influences in a multimethod study of 115 teams in 20 subsidiaries of five MNCs. Controlling for micro contextual ...

There has been increasing interest in team learning processes in recent years. Researchers have investigated the impact of team learning on team effectiveness and analyzed the enabling conditions for the process, but team learning in virtual teams has been largely ignored. This study examined the relationship between team learning and effectiveness in virtual teams, as well as the role of team ...
