The PBL model was more effective in scaffolding learning so that students recognize and practice postformal thinking dynamics and in facilitating self-reported student perceptions of increased course engagement and content relevance.

The research model is a prediction study. The data in this study was collected using the Revised Two-Factor Study Process Questionnaire (R-SPQ-2F) and a personal information form. The findings were as follow: there was a positive relationship between students’ GPAs and the deep approach. There was a negative relationship between GPAs and the surface approach. There was no significant relationship between GPAs and approaches to the total score of learning. While there were no significant relationships between students’ ages and deep motivation and surface motivation strategies, an association was found between age and approaches to total scores of learning total .

Instruction in an online classroom presents many challenges, including learner individualization. Individual differences in learning styles and preferences are often not considered in the development and delivery of online course content. Online instructors also struggle with engaging students within the generalized environment of an online classroom, which is a consequence of the lack of learner individualization. One way to individualize the learning experience in an online classroom is to appeal to students’ learning characteristics and preferences, which include learning styles, navigation behaviors, and social and environmental factors. Utilizing these characteristics and preferences, the online instructor and student can work together on a process of online learner adaption. The process includes three main components that incorporate the identified characteristics and preferences: identifying the lens, creating the map, and delivering the tool. To facilitate the process of online learner adaption, the instructor serves as a thinking advisor, assisting the students in identifying their own learning styles and preferences and how they can be adapted to optimize learning in the online classroom.","PeriodicalId":89968,"journal":{"name":"Journal of college teaching and learning","volume":"48 1","pages":"171-176"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81711579","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}

Active learning has been consistently shown to increase student engagement and hence learning. Hands-on activities are one of the many active learning approaches. These activities vary from structured laboratory experiments on one end of the spectrum to virtual gaming environments and to for example building a solar car on the other end. Active learning has also been credited for developing critical thinking skills that promote metacognition. We have used virtual and real environments to promote student engagement and provide opportunities for developing a deeper understanding of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) concepts. Several learning modules have been developed utilizing Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) with autonomous flight capabilities and a flight simulation environment . In this paper we explain three modules. Based on a survey, students reported positve impact of these modules and of the opportunity to assemble the UAS.","PeriodicalId":89968,"journal":{"name":"Journal of college teaching and learning","volume":"101 1","pages":"177-188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80799297","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}
