Collaborative Research Using Video Media

项目摘要

The project is a collaborative effort involving Manhattan College, University of Kentucky, and Bucknell University that uses the skills possessed by a media savvy generation of students to enhance conceptual learning of thermodynamics. The project is having students develop an instructional video that teaches a concept in thermodynamics using common metaphors, and then watch a similarly constructed instructional video developed by peers at a different institution. The former employs autodidactic learning, while the latter takes advantage of peer-to-peer learning. To measure the effects of these treatments on conceptual learning, the investigators are conducting a baseline assessment using a thermodynamics concept inventory and a post-treatment assessment using a similar instrument. Additionally, student affective domain responses are being measured with a questionnaire. The collection of videos is being made available through prominent springboards, such as the resources section of the AIChE Education Division Website and the NSDL library, and they are being aggressively promoted using a press kit sent out to those who teach thermodynamics and similar courses at other institutions as well as through further distribution of the kit at national conferences (e.g., ASEE and AIChE). Traditional dissemination efforts include faculty workshops at national meetings, conference presentations, and journal publications. Broader impacts include the strong dissemination effort with video postings on YouTube and the aggressive promotion of the approach through various mechanisms.

该项目是曼哈顿学院、肯塔基大学和巴克内尔大学共同努力的成果，它利用一代精通媒体的学生所拥有的技能来加强对热力学的概念性学习。该项目让学生制作一段教学视频，使用常见的隐喻教授热力学的一个概念，然后观看由不同机构的同行开发的类似结构的教学视频。前者使用自学学习，而后者利用点对点学习。为了衡量这些治疗对概念学习的影响，研究人员正在使用热力学概念清单进行基线评估，并使用类似的工具进行治疗后评估。此外，学生的情感领域反应是通过问卷来测量的。通过AIChE教育司网站的资源部分和NSDL图书馆等重要跳板提供了这些视频，并通过向在其他机构教授热力学和类似课程的人发送新闻资料包以及通过在各国会议(例如ASEE和AIChE)上进一步分发该资料包来积极宣传这些资料。传统的传播努力包括在全国会议、会议演讲和期刊出版物上举办教师研讨会。更广泛的影响包括通过在YouTube上发布视频进行强有力的传播努力，以及通过各种机制积极宣传这一方法。
