We operationalize embodied actions as the purposeful body positions and movements that an individual engages in during a learning activity, where these body states and actions exhibit a non-trivial relationship to the targeted learning objective.
These learning environments, which are physical and cultural contexts engineered with the express purpose of facilitating the attainment of target learning objectives by a specific audience, vary vastly in their design principles.
In this study, we use Bloom's taxonomy to categorize the cognitive processing levels targeted by learning objectives and assessments.
We evaluated TA learning (level 2) as alignment between the cognitive level targeted by learning objectives and the assessments created by TAs within each type of PD.
Research shows that combining diagnostic questions with active-teaching approaches has the potential to improve students' understanding and reasoning (Hestenes, 1998; Nehm and Reilly, 2007) and provides a validated way to measure the effectiveness of activities targeted at specific learning objectives.
At no point during my own education was I ever aware of non-negotiables, targets, levels, learning objectives or success criteria.
These items were targeted at the knowledge level (Bloom's level 1), whereas their learning objectives targeted a comprehension level (Bloom's level 2); very small SEs indicate little variation among items in the levels targeted.
Several factors determine the complexity of the simulation model chosen by nursing faculty and include such considerations as targeted courses, desired realism, and learning objectives.
The flashcards included a title (cue) and learning objectives (targets) and were displayed on one screen of the CASUS™ system [ 34, 35].
Learning objectives, instruction, and assessments largely targeted higher-order cognitive skills of analysis, synthesis, and evaluation (Bloom et al., 1956; Crowe et al., 2008; Momsen et al., 2010, 2013).
The e-Portfolio allowed students to understand their learning objectives using specific targets, rather than using the previous generic objectives [ 29].
