Previous research suggests that people with schizophrenia have difficulty learning from positive feedback and when learning needs to occur rapidly. However, they seem to have relatively intact learning from negative feedback when learning occurs gradually. Participants are typically given a limited amount of acquisition trials to learn the reward contingencies and then tested about what they le...

Providing learners with computer generated feedback on their learning process in simulation based discovery environments cannot be based on a detailed model of the leaning process due to the “open” character of discovery learning. This paper describes a method for generating adaptive feedback for discovery learning based on an “opportunistic” learning model that takes the current hypothesis of ...

This study explores students’ attitudes to the provision of formative feedback on academic work using audio files together with the ways in which students implement such feedback within their learning. Fifteen students received audio file feedback on written work and were subsequently interviewed regarding their utilisation of that feedback within their learning. The written work provided by tw...

Introduction: Online formative assessments (OFA’s) have beenincreasingly recognised in medical education as resources thatpromote self-directed learning. Formative assessments are usedto support the self-directed learning of students. Online formativeassessments have been identified to be less time consuming withautomated feedback. This pilot study aimed to determine whetherparticipation and pe...

introduction: feedback is very important in education and can help quality in the training process and orient the trainees in clinical contexts. this study aimed to assess the residents’ points of view about feedback in clinical education at shiraz university of medical sciences. methods: the sample of this study included 170 medical residents attending medical workshops in shiraz university of...

Research in L1 writing has found numerous benefits of employing collaborative learning in the classroom. The research findings on group work provide clear evidence that engaging learners in group activities increases opportunities for students to engage in the negotiation of meaning, which further leads to better acquisition. The present study, implementing two different collaborative feedback ...

there is no doubt that augmented feedback has an important role in improvinglearning. however, it is the content of the feedback which is challenging. the aimof the present study was to examine the effect of feedback on successful versusunsuccessful trials on simple and complex tracking tasks. for this purpose, 48undergraduate right-handed male and female students of hakim sabzevari teachertrai...
