Extending Explanation-Based Learning by Generalizing the Structure of Explanations

Extending Explanation-Based Learning by Generalizing the Structure of Explanations presents several fully-implemented computer systems that reflect theories of how to extend an interesting subfield of machine learning called explanation-based learning. This book discusses the need for generalizing explanation structures, relevance to research areas outside machine learning, and schema-based problem solving. The result of standard explanation-based learning, BAGGER generalization algorithm, and empirical analysis of explanation-based learning are also elaborated. This text likewise covers the effect of increased problem complexity, rule access strategies, empirical study of BAGGER2, and related work in similarity-based learning. This publication is suitable for readers interested in machine learning, especially explanation-based learning.

A Team-based Learning Guide for Faculty in the Health Professions

Team-based Learning is a unique pedagogy designed to engage students in active learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Students receive immediate feedback in their learning through readiness assurance testing and application exercises. Students also learn and develop skills needed to work in teams and to teach each other as they work thorough team assignments. This guide provides details on accomplishing the four steps that must be done to design an effective team-based curriculum or topic and examples of how those steps have been used to create courses for health professional students.

Defining learning outcomes and developing application exercises; 2.
Determining what fundamental concepts need to be learned and writing learning
objectives for those concepts; 3. Designing guided learning materials that are
used during pre-class independent study to facilitate student learning; and 4.
Developing both formative and summative tools for assessing learning outcomes.
The topics covered in this book represent a wide range of subjects including

A Team-Based Learning Guide for Students in Health Professional Schools

The purpose of this book is to provide a concise guide on how health professional students can become actively engaged in team-based learning (TBL) and sharpen their clinical reasoning and critical thinking skills. TBL makes learning passionate, relevant, and fun, and it teaches students the benefits of working in teams.

Assessment of student learning has become a major criterion for obtainingand
sustaining regional accreditation ofall colleges and universities in the United
States. And, thatisa good thing.How can a studentbe sure that heor sheis
learning what the teacher wants them to learn? Course exams provide some data
, but as already mentioned the learning that leads to a passing grade on exams
may be very shallow and associated with a low retention rate. It is only when

International Handbook of Research in Professional and Practice-based Learning

The International Handbook of Research in Professional and Practice-based Learning discusses what constitutes professionalism, examines the concepts and practices of professional and practice-based learning, including associated research traditions and educational provisions. It also explores professional learning in institutions of higher and vocational education as well the practice settings where professionals work and learn, focusing on both initial and ongoing development and how that learning is assessed. The Handbook features research from expert contributors in education, studies of the professions, and accounts of research methodologies from a range of informing disciplines. It is organized in two parts. The first part sets out conceptions of professionalism at work, how professions, work and learning can be understood, and examines the kinds of institutional practices organized for developing occupational capacities. The second part focuses on procedural issues associated with learning for and through professional practice, and how assessment of professional capacities might progress. The key premise of this Handbook is that during both initial and ongoing professional development, individual learning processes are influenced and shaped through their professional environment and practices. Moreover, in turn, the practice and processes of learning through practice are shaped by their development, all of which are required to be understood through a range of research orientations, methods and findings. This Handbook will appeal to academics working in fields of professional practice, including those who are concerned about developing these capacities in their students. In addition, students and research students will also find this Handbook a key reference resource to the field.

Central to this part is understanding, illustrating and elaborating the roles that
practice-based learning activities play in the development of occupational identity
and capacities, as well as being utilised as sites for ongoing professional
learning across lengthening working lives. Included here are contributions that
adopt the educational lexicon and discourse to understand, legitimated and
illustrate the ways which practice-based activities and experiences are central to

Game-Based Learning

Challenges and Opportunities

This book is an invitation to delve into the world of Game-Based Learning, to understand the many facets that make games a truly interesting and effective tool to teach and train in the 21st century. It includes nine chapters which were initially presented at the iGBL conference, a conference held throughout Ireland, where researchers, practitioners, students and other stakeholders meet and share their interest in games and education. These chapters touch on some very important topics, including games for health; formal education; poetry and games; science teaching through mobile games; relaxation with gaming devices; and accounting for disabilities with handheld devices. Together, these chapters illustrate the advancements in the field of Game-Based Learning, the challenges faced by developers and educators, as well as the opportunities that this medium can offer. Each chapter is written with practicality in mind in an effort to provide the reader with both a solid theoretical approach and background, coupled to some practical guidelines and suggestions that can be applied easily.
