The content of the 115 academic studies published in the journals indexed in the Educational Research Information Center (ERIC), Academic Search Complete, Professional Development Collection, and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection were examined in this study. The result revealed that there are various approaches and practices in the use of case-method in teacher education. This paper presents a list of the academic disciplines using case teaching method, the benefits and the challenges in the use of this method and the research methods used in the investigation of case teaching method in preservice teacher education

However, this non-linear structure may cause problems such as inefficient navigation, being lost or cognitive overhead for some learners. The aim of this study is to determine how individual differences; cognitive styles, prior knowledge and gender influence the navigation pattern in a courseware. The research has the posttest-only, equivalent-groups true experimental design. The sampling is comprised of 84 first year undergraduate students at Gazi University, enrolled in an introduction to computer course. The cognitive styles (field dependent / field intermediate / field independent) of the students were measured with the “Group Embedded Figure Test”. To determine the navigation pattern of the students, their stratum, compactness and revisit percentage values were computed based on their use of the cour...

The purpose of this study is to examine students' views about the OSLM in an e-learning system.Design/methodology/approachThis case study was conducted with 40 undergraduate students enrolled in advanced programming and database management system courses. A Likert-type questionnaire and open-ended questions were used to obtain the students' views. System usage data were also analyzed to ensure the richness and diversity of the overall data set.FindingsThe quantitative data of the students' views were analyzed with descriptive statistics; the results are presented as graphics. The qualitative data of the students' views were examined by content analysis to derive themes. These themes are organized into four subtopics: the students' positive views, their negative views, their improvement ...

Fifty-six studies conducted between 2002 and 2012 were examined, to identify prominent themes and approaches. According to the content analysis, the new technological trends and approaches were grouped into seven categories: standardization, semantic web, modular frameworks, data mining, machine learning techniques, social web, and device adaptation. Furthermore, four challenges are suggested as explanation why adaptive systems are still not used on a large scale: inter-operability, open corpus knowledge, usage across a variety of delivery devices, and the design of meta-adaptive systems.

OSM is known for its ability to increase student engagement, motivation, and knowledge reflection. A recent extension of OSM known as Open Social Student Modeling (OSSM) attempts to enhance cognitive aspects of OSM with social aspects by allowing students to explore models of peer students or the whole class. In this paper, we introduce MasteryGrids, a scalable OSSM interface and report the results of a large-scale classroom study that explored the value of adding social dimension to OSM. The results of the study reveal a remarkable engaging potential of OSSM as well as its impact on learning effectiveness and user attitude.

For this purpose; a) the test and instructions were translated into Turkish, b) the Turkish test was administered to a group of 398 students as a pilot, c) retest was administered to a group of 97 students, and finally, d) a group of 382 students was subject to a norm study. The Confirmatory Factor Analysis model created by the data of the pilot administration was well adapted, and one-factor model was verified for construct validity. As the construct of the test was altered, a Confirmatory Factor Analysis was performed on the data obtained from the norm study. A construct similar to that acquired from the data of the first test administration and the results obtained have even relatively better fit indices. Although...

This study aims to describe the concept of student modeling, heart of the adaptive learning systems, and analyze the information collection, construction and updating phases of a student modeling process. In the study, the classification of student models in numerous ways is explained, and the different methods employed in the representation of information in the student model are addressed. Moreover, the problem of uncertainty, which is one of the most important challenges in the student modeling process, is mentioned, and the trends in student modeling are discussed.

This study, analyzing the concept of adaptive learning environments as a whole, focuses on the description of and the reasons to need such learning hyper environments. Moreover, the components comprising adaptive learning environments are explained and the methods and technologies used to create such environments are scrutinized. Finally, adaptive learning environments’ evaluation processes and impacts on instructional processes are discussed based on the existing literature.

It also explores the relationship between self-assessment and normalized gain. The study was performed with graduate students of University of Pittsburgh taking Database Course for the first semester 2014/2015 and ran for 11 weeks. The results demonstrated that both OSM and OSSM positively affect students’ regular self-assessment ability. However, only OSSM was able to positively impact students’ relative self-assessment ability (i.e., compare their SQL knowledge to others). The results also indicated that, students’ self-assessments are positively and highly correlated to their normalized gain.

Thirty two students, taking the Introduction to the Computer course in their second year, in the department of Turkish Language Teaching in Gazi University were participated in this study and they used an adaptive learning environment developed by the researcher. This adaptive learning system dynamically modifies links with visual hints to guide users current state of links in content map, shows or hides additional information on the topic and determines type of content presentation (video or text and visual) based on a user model. The qualitative data on the adaptive learning environment is collected through online student questionnaires at the end of three week treatment. The findings show that students have a relatively high...

One of the metacognitive activities which could be integrated into web-based learning environments in order to lead students to think about issues such as what, why and how to learn and in what issues they have learning deficiencies is reflective prompts. Reflective prompts support students in effective learning by enabling them to think about their own learning process and to become aware of how they accomplish a task. This article presents a web-based learning environment, which was designed to support students’ metacognitive process by reflective prompts. In the study, the development stages of a goal-based learning environment which contains “web designing by using HTML language” is explained. Then, the general characteristics of the system along with...

We grounded the design of Mastery Grids in self-regulated learning and learning motivation theories, as well as in our past work in social comparison, OLM, and adaptive navigation support. The force behind the interface is the combination of adaptive navigation functionality with the mastery-oriented aspects of OLM and the performance-oriented aspects of social comparison. We examined different configurations of Mastery Grids in two classroom studies and report the results of analysis of log data and survey responses. The results show how Mastery Grids interacts with different factors, like gender and achievement-goal orientation, and ultimately, its impact on student engagement, performance, and motivation.
