The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to investigate the effect of virtual case-based learning sessions on the learning motivation of first- and second-year medical students. Methods A total of 258 students, 128in the intervention group and 130 in the control group, were enrolled in...

Millers team obtained FDA approval for its Aldara (imiquimod) line of topical patient-applied creams in 1997, Miller then applied the same Aldara-based chemical mechanism to basal cell carcinomas and found that, here 100, It was particularly effective to restricting the growth of the skin cancer...
In these experiments conducted under the research-based learning (RBL) mode, a common thread that was observed across the experiments was that students were able to follow the process of framing research questions, reviewing the literature, collecting and analysing the data, proposing answers and exp...
For large-scale implementation of MOOCs in HEIs, several questions need to be answered: What are the main strategies of countries’ behavior in the MOOC market? What is the positioning of countries in the international MOOC market? What are possible activities in the international MOOC market fo...
The absence of LHC signals for new phenomena in the TeV range requires physicists to think differently about the open questions in fundamental physics. These include the abundance of matter over antimatter, the nature of dark matter, the quark and lepton flavour puzzle in general, and the non-...
Initially, I was reluctant to submit a press release for our nascent internet business. We had experienced a less-than-impressive foray with a more expensive service, and we were underwhelmed. I had some questions, and eReleases service before the sale impressed us. After some discussions with...
For example, it made possible to study the differences between rural and urban schools, something not initially contemplated when the Project was conceived. The following sections provide a description of the research methodology employed to respond to the main research questions posed in the ...
By focussing on these and other fundamental electron processes, the research theme of electron-astrophysics links outstanding science questions of great importance to the fields of space physics, astrophysics, and laboratory plasma physics. In this White Paper, submitted to ESA in response to the ...
video observation and another 20 minutes answering further questions). Preservice physics teachers were instructed to first describe what happened in the teaching situation. Afterwards, they should evaluate the situation, devise alternative modes of action, and formulate consequences for their own teaching...
