The reason is that assessments not only promote students' learning but also evaluate students' competencies, particularly in the field of health sciences, such as acupuncture. Therefore, it is crucial for higher education institutions to ensure that assessments in their programmes are valid and reliable. However, there is a distinct lack of research focusing on assessments in acupuncture programmes. This study aimed to explore students' views and experiences of an acupuncture programme at a higher education institution within the South African context. The revised Bloom's Taxonomy was utilised as the theoretical lens to understanding students' views and experiences. A qualitative single case study design was employed in this study. The authors followed a purposive sampling strategy to recruit participants from a public university in South Africa. Ten participants were selected for this study. Thematic analysis was utilised in this study. The findings of this study highlighted that participants acknowledged the importance of assessments in the acupuncture programmes. They reported that it was necessary for lecturers to utilise diverse assessment approaches in teaching. The findings of this study further suggested the significance of frequent assessment in promoting students' learning. This study concluded that there is no specific assessment superior to the other. Appropriate assessment techniques should be selected to meet the purpose of the assessment in the programme.","PeriodicalId":30787,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Education of Gifted Young Scientists","volume":"527 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77112755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After participating in international exams in Turkey, it started to make changes in the questions in the exams it held throughout the country. The most striking of these changes is the preparation of skill-based questions that measure metacognitive skills in the High School Entrance System exam. In order to solve such questions effectively, as emphasized in the mathematics curriculum, the problem solving process must be managed well and correctly. In this research, it is aimed to examine the processes of solving skill-based questions about multipliers and multiples. The difficulties experienced by the students in the process of solving skill-based questions and the points they missed were determined. In this study, case study, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The study group consists of 8 students, 4 of whom are highly successful in mathematics and 4 of whom are gifted, studying in the 8th grade. The Factors and Multiples Achievement Test consisting of 10 open-ended questions was developed in order to measure the students' skills on the subject of multipliers and multiples. While applying the Multipliers and Multiples Achievement Test, we conducted a clinical interview with each student and enabled the students to solve the questions by thinking aloud. We made the descriptive analysis of the obtained data according to the Polya’ problem solving steps. While presenting the findings, we made use of the tables and interpreted them according to each question and step. As a result of the research, we determined that the students who successfully realized the step of understanding the problem were able to perform the other steps and solve the questions correctly. We also found that students who are successful in mathematics try to apply Polya's problem solving steps more and are more successful than gifted students. According to these results, we recommend that students use Polya's problem-solving steps effectively while solving problems and that the research results should be investigated in more detail","PeriodicalId":30787,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Education of Gifted Young Scientists","volume":"51 9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89819588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They believed that game-based learning significantly motivated them in the learning process. Furthermore, game-based learning also reduced their stress in learning compared to the learning in normal classrooms. They reported that game-based learning not only improved their engagement in learning but also enhanced their knowledge and skills. This study also highlighted that game-based learning should be well-planned to avoid demotivating students. It can be concluded that game-based learning is an effective approach to improve student engagement.

In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the achievements contained in the Support Training Room for Gifted Students Turkish 2. 3. and 4. classroom activities book in the context of the cognitive domain steps of the updated Bloom Taxonomy. In the study, the achievements found at the 2. 3. and 4. grade levels were analysed using keywords compiled in the literature and it was tried to determine which step corresponds to the updated Bloom Taxonomy. In the study carried out with document analysis technique, one of the qualitative research methods, a total of 122 achievements, including 40 at 2 grade levels, 37 at 3 grade levels and 45 at 4 grade levels, were evaluated.
