The questions about parental educationattainment first asked respondents “Whom do you refer to as Parent 1?” with exclusive choices of:mother, father, stepmother, stepfather, grandmother, grandfather, legal guardian, and other with a fill-in-the-blank response. Respondents were then asked “How much education did your Parent 1 complete”with choices of: did not finish high school, graduated from high school, attended college but did notcomplete degree, completed an Associate degree (AA, AS, etc.), completed a Bachelor degree (BA, BS,etc.), completed a Master degree (MA, MS, MBA, etc.), completed a

Essentially, students that master the problem solving frameworks presentedin the biotransport course will not only successfully transfer the skill to alternate content areas,but also will do so with enhanced conviction.Theoretical Foundations: The ideology behind the GIM, and challenge-based instruction morebroadly, is the How People Learn model. Developed by Bransford et al., this work establishesthe fundamental centers of learning (i.e. learner center, assessment center, community center), aswell as thoughts on designing learning environments for maximizing learning [8]. A secondfoundation is that of learning for understanding, articulated succinctly by Wiggins and McTighe[25]. The focus of greatest importance

, in turn, base on Pulakos et al., [34], Charbonnier-Voirin and Roussel [36], Fisherand Peterson [20], and van der Heijden [33]), their reason for doing so is that Fisher andPeterson’s focus on the conceptual framework necessary for adaptive expertise comes at theexpense of domain-specific skills that are necessary to understanding expertise. However, asBohle Carbonell et al., require that the domain skill-related questions address an epistemologicalperspective, which embraces change in disciplinary knowledge, they do acknowledge theimportance of attitude as foundational to adaptive expertise. Moreover, learning scientists areincreasingly identifying attitude and disposition as a key variable in understanding studentsuccess in mastering both

As mentioned previously, the CBA quizzes had tobe taken on either of two consecutive days at the beginning of the week followed by a remedialquiz given on Fridays of the same week wherein students were given extra credit for the correctanswers on the remediation activity. Several concerns about this format arose. One was: To whatbenefit was it to a student who personally mastered the quiz when he/she was paired with astudent who did not master the quiz? Although there was no formal study of this issue, weobserved that many students who performed well were eager to teach their mastery to those whodid not. The fact that the remediation was extra

While some technologies have been found to supportcollaboration, they can also add a layer of complexity to the virtual team interaction.
