PBL (Project Based Learning) in the field of medical education has been introduced earlier. These learning methods are to be effective to improve problem-solving ability. Recently, this method has been applied in many other field of medical education. For example, other fields are the economics, the literature, the engineering, and the science in university. This learning method is highly dependent...
Many organisations and individuals already offer distance learning in science, engineering and technology (SET). Offerings range from on-line lecture notes or home-grown simulations to global multi-media programmes with high-quality student support. There is, however, still a certain reluctance in some circles to accept that successful open and distance learning is possible in SET. Searching for 'engineering'...
A course entitled effective teaching with technology (ETT) has been taught to PhD candidates and postdoctoral students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) during the Spring semester of 2004, 2005, and 2006, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The course is supported by the NSF-sponsored Center for Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning (CIRTL). The course employs...
As someone who began using computers in physics instruction starting way back in 1970, I must confess that the excitement of that odd band of physics professors who were my fellow enthusiasts was somewhat misplaced. What then appeared to be wild dreams has become mundane practice, and the cutting edge of computer use, especially for numerical computations, has moved beyond the bounds that even our...
