Each working group was asked to prepare a poster summarising a different topic about the physiology of the oocyte. On the activity day, rotating discussion sessions moderated by tutors took place, with groups answering different questions to deepen their knowledge. Students appreciated the dynamic and supportive environment that reduced anxiety while fostering knowledge-sharing. They also mentioned they prefer this method to traditional lectures and credited modern facilities for increasing their motivation to learn. We recommend the World Café method for improving collaborative work skills and learning in biomedical education. This study also highlights the need for institutions to provide up-to-date infrastructures, as this appears to have a direct impact on students’ engagement.KEYWORDS: World Cafépedagogical strategiesactiveteaching-learningstudents’ engagementlearning spacesbiomedical sciences AcknowledgmentsThe authors thank the University of Aveiro for the attribution of a prize for this pedagogical project within the scope of the contest “Incentive to pedagogical innovation projects – 2022 Edition”.

Undergraduate students (N = 175) were surveyed on student stressors, personality, support and control against mood, course satisfaction and motivation. Defensive pessimism, context control and agreeableness lowered anxiety. Neuroticism, extraversion and hassle ratings towards tutor support, increased it. Control and neuroticism mediated between stress ratings given to support from family and friends and anxiety. Optimism and defensive pessimism lowered depression scores. Those high in Defensive pessimism, compared to those high in optimism, scored lower on anxiety, higher on learning motivation and course satisfaction and this is despite the optimism group being higher in self-efficacy, control and conscientiousness. Both groups scored higher than the cohort average on GPA. The results suggest that context control, defensive pessimism and optimism all offer effective coping, with individual differences an important caveat – for those capable and high in anxiety, defensive pessimism was effective.","PeriodicalId":47628,"journal":{"name":"Innovations in Education and Teaching International","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136060145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have extended the research by examining co-supervisory experience from the supervisor’s perspective, and by exploring the influences of co-supervision for supervisory competencies and the occupational wellbeing with a large-scale quantitative survey. 561 supervisors participated in the study. The data were analysed with statistical methods. The results showed that having a supervisory team has become the dominant from of supervision across the disciplines. Furthermore, the frequency of engaging in co-supervision was related to supervisor’s occupational wellbeing, but the association was not straightforward. Having experience in co-supervision seemed to contribute to feeling more confident with one’s supervisory competencies. The findings imply that the development of well-functioning co-supervision practices can enhance supervisors’ competencies and occupational wellbeing alongside promoting PhD candidates’ studying.","PeriodicalId":47628,"journal":{"name":"Innovations in Education and Teaching International","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135149723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we evaluated its performance in providing responses to genetics questions across five different tasks including solid genetic basics, identifying inheritance pattern based on described pedigrees, interpreting genetic mutation notations, solving genetic population problems, and taking a medical genetics Ph.D. entrance exam. Our results showed that ChatGPT was able to generate correct answers to approximately 70% of questions (n = 145). Its performance on descriptive and memorisation tasks showed more accuracy compared to analytical and critical thinking ones. Failure to capture human writing nuances in questions, and applying genetic basics to solve problems, alongside providing false information were the most notable drawbacks. However, overall results were promising suggesting that ChatGPT could be a well-prepared assistant for genetic educators and healthcare providers.KEYWORDS: ChatGPTgenerative pre-trained transformergeneticsartificial intelligencelarge language model AcknowledgmentsThis study was supported by the Golestan University of Medical Sciences (Grant Number: 13350).Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementNo additional data were created or used in this study beyond what is presented in the manuscript.EthicsThis study was ethically approved by Ethics Committee of Golestan University of Medical Sciences (Ethics Code: IR.GOUMS.REC.1401.522)Supplementary materialSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/14703297.2023.2258842Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Golestan University of Medical Sciences and Health Services [113350].Notes on contributorsTeymoor KhosraviTeymoor Khosravi is a postgraduate student at Golestan university of medical sciences studying human genetics.Zainab M.

By integrating social-cognitive theory with ecological systems theory, we theorise a moderated mediation model that links interaction to OLE by exploring the effects of self-regulated learning and family function. Data were collected from 606 undergraduates in China. Our results revealed that interaction positively affected students’ OLE. Especially, learner – learner interaction explained a larger proportion of variance than learner – instructor interaction. In addition, the interaction contributed to OLE through the beneficial effects of self-regulated learning. Furthermore, the mediating effect of self-regulated learning on the association between learner – learner interaction and emotional engagement was moderated by family function. The implications for theory, practice, and future research have been discussed.KEYWORDS: Interactiononline learning engagementself-regulated learningfamily function Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe datasets generated during and/or analysed during the current study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.Ethical ApprovalEthical approval was granted by the Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing, China.

Insight into scaling partnership activity across the institution is integral to the success of such programmes. This qualitative study investigates how a new programme at a UK university sought to establish the conditions for successful partnership working. A series of semi-structured interviews offer insights into the early experiences of the programme. By adopting a reflexive thematic analysis we find that partnerships are vulnerable to variable approaches to facilitation and that a greater emphasis on staff preparedness is warranted. The research uncovered tensions between the partnership scheme and other forms of student engagement e.g. student representation. As a result, clarity around the identity of partnership schemes, what partnership working involves and how it interacts with other student opportunities across the institution is critical.","PeriodicalId":47628,"journal":{"name":"Innovations in Education and Teaching International","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135254842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
