PURPOSE Previous studies on team-based learning (TBL) in medical education demonstrated improved learner engagement, learner satisfaction, and academic performance; however, a paucity of information exists on modifications of the incentive structure of "traditional" TBL practices. The current study investigates the impact of modification to conventional Group Application exercises by examining ...

Existing educational resources for control systems have been refined and new resources have been developed. A new LabVIEW based Control Systems Analysis Toolkit (CSAT) has been developed to assist lecturers in teaching control engineering and students to understand theoretical concepts; specific manual and activity exercises for the CSAT have been developed. An existing LabVIEW based Process Co...

In this study, the bandwidth of the filter-based fatigue index was determined by the comparison of optimized cut-off frequencies in different inter-electrode distances. Sixty-one subjects participated in isometric knee extension, isotonic ankle dorsiflexion, and isotonic elbow extension exercises. Electromyography (EMG) signals were obtained from right rectus femoris, triceps brachii, and tibia...

My research explores methods for automatic generation of high-quality feedback for computer programming exercises. This work is motivated by problems with current automated assessment systems, which usually provide binary (“Correct”/“Incorrect”) feedback on programming exercises. Binary feedback is not conducive to student learning, and has also been linked to undesirable consequences, such as ...

[Purpose] This study compared the activation of anterior gluteus medius fibers during general exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises. [Subjects and Methods] The study enrolled 15 healthy adults. The participants performed general hip abductor strengthening exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises; during both types of exercise, electromyograph...
