Optimizing Video Tutorials for Software Training through Cueing
Author: Ragazou, Vasiliki
Date: 2021-00-00
Type: Speeches/Meeting Papers
Subjects: Instructional Design,Video Technology,Educational Technology,Cues,Computer Software,Task Analysis,Cognitive Processes,Difficulty Level,Self Efficacy,Undergraduate Students,Computer Science Education,Foreign Countries,Instructional Effectiveness

Video tutorials substantially support demonstration-based training where the main goal is to enhance procedural knowledge by observing various understandable examples of performing a task. Although video tutorials are broadly popular nowadays, little attention is given to the design features of an instructional tutorial. The aim of this study is to investigate the use of cueing on video tutorials for software training. Task performance, mental effort, and self-efficacy were included as dependent variables to explain possible effects mechanisms. The experiment included 118 undergraduate students with ICT experience from a Computer Science department in Greece. All subjects viewed three video tutorials on video editing software followed by practice. The participants achieved significant learning gains, reaching moderate to high levels of success on task performance. No cueing effect was found. The discussion proposes several alternatives for improving the effectiveness of video tutorials. [For the full proceedings, see ED622227.]

The Future of Vocational Education and Training in Europe. Volume 1. The Changing Content and Profile of VET: Epistemological Challenges and Opportunities. Cedefop Research Paper. No. 83
Author: Cedefop - European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training
Date: 2022-00-00
Type: Reports - Research
Subjects: Foreign Countries,Vocational Education,Educational Trends,Futures (of Society),Educational Change,General Education,Workplace Learning,Curriculum Development,Job Skills

This study examines changes in the way that knowledge, skills and competence are differentiated in curricula, and how learning is organised across different learning sites: in classrooms, workshops or laboratories, and at workplaces. The study collected information through Cedefop's ReferNet network, in-depth country case studies, and an online survey among almost 1 000 European VET providers. Results show that several countries have strengthened the general education component of their VET programmes either by increasing the extent of teaching general subjects or by better integrating them into the vocational curriculum. At the same time, the increased emphasis on general skills has not taken place at the expense of workplace learning; on the contrary, an expansion of workplace learning in IVET curricula has been ubiquitous. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to assess the exact extent of workplace learning, due to increased flexibility allowed at provider and individual level in the combination of different learning environments.

Beyond Good Intentions: Steps to Craft Equity-Driven Policy
Author: Complete College America (CCA)
Date: 2022-00-00
Type: Reports - Descriptive
Subjects: State Policy,Educational Policy,Equal Education,Data,Postsecondary Education,Program Implementation

&quot;Beyond Good Intentions&quot; provides a guide for states to craft equity-driven policies that are specific, actionable, measurable and well funded. It outlines four major steps states should take when considering and creating new policy: (1) Examine the Data to Set the Goal for the Policy: Specific types of data to consider when identifying the inequity the policy will address; (2) Determine Policy Recommendations: Steps to ensure that the policy development process will include input from a range of range of stakeholders and examine potential strategies, supports, and funding streams; (3) Craft the Policy: Details to include when writing the policy, such as why this policy is being developed and who it affects, what the policy requires and how it will be funded, how it will be implemented, and how progress will be reviewed; and (4) Plan for the Rollout: Actions to ensure that people understand why the policy is important and how to implement it. &quot;Beyond Good Intentions&quot; builds on findings from &quot;Race-Conscious Implementation of a Developmental Education Reform in California Community Colleges,&quot; a companion report by the University of Southern California (USC) Race and Equity Center.

Subjects: Economic Climate,Labor Force Development,Public Policy,Accountability,Policy Formation,Evidence Based Practice,Data Use,Social Differences,Job Training,Inclusion,Access to Information,Racial Differences,Gender Differences,Educational Attainment,Employment,Language Proficiency,Income,Job Placement,Federal Legislation

Public data and accountability are key to an inclusive economic recovery. We need data on how different workers and businesses are faring in the recovery, so we can hold policymakers accountable to equitable outcomes for those most impacted. Disparities and inequities in skills training programs can only be eliminated if there is high-quality information on program outcomes available to practitioners and policymakers to assess and address equity gaps. This policy brief provides recommendations on how to measure and report on what matters to help diminish structural inequities and to shape implementation of federal recovery investments as well as new state and federal workforce investments for years to come.

Subjects: Liberal Arts,Professional Development,Activism,Racism,Social Justice,Equal Education,Diversity,Inclusion,Citizen Participation,Higher Education

In mid-2017, the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) invited its member institutions to apply to participate in a four-day professional development event focused on institutional responses to student activism concerning racial injustice. The Diversity, Civility, and the Liberal Arts Institute was premised on the belief that teaching and learning in the liberal arts--a signature element of the education offered by CIC institutions--is key to advancing equity, inclusion, and civil engagement in higher education communities. This report begins by describing the institutions that convened in Atlanta, Georgia. Next the report highlights some of the specific activities undertaken by the participating teams to implement the lessons of the Institute on their own campuses, as well as the success factors and stumbling blocks they encountered along the way.

This paper reviews current research on perceptions of faculty members toward an accreditation process at public university in Riau Province, Indonesia. This issue has been widely addressed by among academics and scholars in higher education sector since their perceptions toward an accreditation process intimately involved in the implementation of educational policies and informs the public whether the institution has met the standards established by national accrediting agency or not. Then, the aim of this paper is to develop a research agenda for the emergence of faculty members' perceptions on an accreditation process in public universities in Indonesia Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). This is done by reviewing research and relevant literature on perceptions of faculty members, policies on accreditation model, top management strategies and challenges, and its benefits for institutional and government as well. The paper shows that there are a number of key debates in the general literature on the perceptions of faculty members to an accreditation process. However, this claim is still in early stage and needs to be investigated empirically. Limitation of this study in term of the source of data for literature review is based on secondary rather than primary sources. Obviously, this paper proposes a research agenda from the empirical findings and theory building to academics, accrediting agency and government.
