As a result, my work examines not only interpersonal learning interactions, but also the characteristics individuals bring to these interactions (such as their specialized background and motives for learning) and the emergent structures (including collective norms and shared practices) in which the interactions are embedded.
The 2011 study did not reveal greater learning gains for the participants in the narrative condition, i.e. the group given the text-based background and stated goal for learning about wet cell batteries did not outperform the control group.
When the new class arrives in the fall, I am sure you will find their talents, diversity of interests and backgrounds, and their enthusiasm for learning to be outstanding.
Moreover, VPs can be used for learning the background and the medical conditions of patients from different countries and cultures [ 6].
Our contrasting backgrounds provide plenty of material for learning on a daily basis, from the simple--sharing recipes from our home cuisines--to the complex, such as navigating different approaches to communicating.
Must have some background in farming and an enthusiasm for learning more about small farms in NY.
We determined we could rescale one of the home background control variables (the "home resources for learning scale", hereafter HRL) while assuming different degrees of cross-national measurement invariance.
Thus, this study supports the view that although there might be no difference in the behavioral measures of verbal learning there are however, neurophysiological indices indicating the increased effort for learning while simultaneous background music stimulation was present.
The first task is object-in-place scene learning, which has been described as a monkey model of episodic memory (Gaffan, 1994) because monkeys learn new object-in-place problems extremely rapidly as a consequence of their being embedded in unique background scenes that provide a context for learning.
Where possible we used the multivariate approach to test the within-subjects effects, since this test is robust against violations of heteroscedasticity [ 80]. Figure 4 demonstrates the mean ERDs and ERSs as topoplots broken down for the 10 time segments and for learning with (background+) and without (background-) musical background.
