ObjectiveThe objective of this research, which was carried out at a faculty of Dentistry situated in Turkey, was to assess the differences in awareness, knowledge, and attitudes about epilepsy among preclinical and clinical undergraduate students as well as speciality students. Moreover, this study seeks to ascertain the adequacy of the curriculum and clinical training provided to dental students in the context of managing patients with epilepsy. The aim is to ensure a full grasp of the subject matter and the development of practical skills. Material-methodAt order to facilitate the research done at the Faculty of Dentistry at Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University, Turkey, a comprehensive questionnaire including eight sections and a total of 60 questions was distributed to students at various stages of their dental education, including preclinical, clinical, and speciality students. ResultThe present study used a descriptive, cross-sectional methodology, including a total of 477 participants from various sections (preclinical, clinical, and speciality) within the Faculty of Dentistry at Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University. When examining the overall understanding of epilepsy, a statistically significant difference was discovered across the various groups. It is noteworthy that a substantial proportion (68.4 %) of students specializing in a particular field displayed a high level of knowledge, which is in stark contrast to the percentages of clinical (40.5 %) and preclinical (29.4 %) students who exhibited similar levels of understanding. ConclusionThis study conducted at a dental college in Turkey revealed a discernible gradient of knowledge, with speciality students exhibiting the greatest degree of knowledge, followed by clinical students, and subsequently preclinical students. In clinical settings, it was observed that students generally had a favorable disposition while interacting with individuals afflicted with epilepsy. Nevertheless, there was a prevailing sentiment of insufficient preparation and instruction. Hence, it is feasible to augment instructional lectures via the use of problem-based or simulation-based learning frameworks.

Attentive Simple Recurrent Unit Knowledge Tracing Based on Learning Ability

Knowledge tracing can analyze the current knowledge level of students through the data of students’ previous learning activities. However, the existing models usually consider the features of exercises, ignoring the individual differences of students. It is difficult to accurately predict students’ mastery. In this paper, we propose an attentive simple recurrent unit knowledge tracing (SRU-MAKT) based on learning ability. The experimental results show that our model is superior to the existing models, and the AUC increases by 1.6%. We also conduct visualization experiments, which show that SRU-MAKT has interpretability.

Design of a Cognitive Knowledge Representation Model to Assess the Reasoning Levels of Primary School Children

In recent days, the research on student’s intelligence level modelling is a challenging Artificial Intelligence (AI) task, which gains more attraction because it provides actionable insights to the tutor by analyzing the intelligence level of the learners. Each learner’s knowledge, comprehension, and intellectual capacities are unique. It is critical to identify these capacities and provide learners, particularly slow learners, with the necessary knowledge. Cognitive Performance Test (CPT) is an essential component for assessing the knowledge level of students. The reasoning level or coefficient deals with the analysis of the thinking capability in a logical way. It also reflects the child’s learning potential. The main aim of the proposed system is to design a Cognitive Knowledge Representation Model (CKRM), which fuses Cognitive Performance Metrics (CPM) calculation and Reasoning Coefficient Calculation (RCC) algorithms to assess the student’s intelligence level. The result of the proposed system is stratification of students to three different ranges of reasoning coefficient. The CKRM consists of the following phases: data collection, statistical Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA), model building and analysis, which involve the assessment of the knowledge level using CPT and calculation of reasoning coefficient using First Order Logic (FOL), and finally model evaluation using cognitive evaluation metrics. CPM and RCC algorithms have been proposed in this paper to calculate the student’s reasoning coefficient by using the forward chaining FOL inference engine. The dataset is a real time data which consists of the academic and cognitive performance details of school students from classes 1 to 6 for the year 2019 to 2020. The academic data are collected from the Educational Management Information System (EMIS) maintained by the school. The cognitive performance data are collected by conducting the tests for the students using the memory training application called Lumosity. The proposed system’s performance is evaluated using ten Machine Learning (ML) algorithms in which the Quadratic Discriminant Analysis achieved an accuracy of 0.97 for classes 1, 2, and 3. For classes 4, 5, and 6, nearly twelve ML algorithms are evaluated in which Random Forest (RF) Classifier achieved an accuracy of 0.98. Six math expert committee teachers concluded that the reasoning coefficient value was acceptable with an average accuracy of 0.92 for classes 1, 2, 3 and 0.9 for classes 4, 5, 6. In comparison to the pre-existing models employed in the prior research, it was determined that the created CKRM (academic and cognitive) was superior. The cognitive metrics such as taskability, Response Time (RT), knowledge capacity and utilization has also been evaluated. The average values of taskability, RT, knowledge capacity and knowledge utilisation are 0.85, 0.81, 0.55, and 0.44. The ultimate goal is to make customised teaching easier; hence, this article involves determining a student’s cognitive level by estimating their reasoning coefficient. The suggested approach analyses and categorises students’ cognitive abilities, such as memory, reasoning, problem solving, thinking, and logical reasoning, using three different reasoning coefficients. This approach assists teachers in determining the degree of intelligence of their students.

Short- and Long-Term Retentivity of Knowledge by Various Teaching Methods in Medical Education and Perception of Students Towards Them: A Comparative Study in a Medical University Hospital of Northern India.

To develop doctors with appropriate knowledge of health and diseases, reasonable medical abilities, and a positive attitude toward patients and their families, it is important to reexamine the methods used to educate and train medical school students. To establish which is best for both medical students and professors, the various teaching and learning methodologies must be compared and analyzed. This study attempts to determine the preferred medical education techniques among medical students as well as the caliber of the classes they attend. This is a before-and-after study conducted among 480 first- (240) and second-year (240) undergraduate students. Students were divided into three groups. Each group was assigned a teacher who was responsible for teaching four short topics according to the common understanding and knowledge level of both year students in four different ways: traditional blackboard method, offline PowerPoint presentation, online PowerPoint presentation, and online annotative. Application-based learning and self-learning were the other two teaching methods conducted in a monitored environment. An MCQ-based pre- and post-test were taken to assess the improvement, and a feedback form was filled out by each student to assess their perception. To assess long-term retention, a surprise follow-up test was conducted after 15 days. For all the teaching methods except for traditional blackboard and online presentation, there was a significant improvement in the post-test scores as compared to the pre-test scores (p<0.05). Retentivity was more remarkable in online application-based and self-learning methods. 77.2% of the study participants preferred offline presentation as the mode of teaching. Retention was found to be highest in self-directed and application-based learning. So, students should be encouraged and motivated for self-study after every lecture, whatever the teaching method used by teachers.

Responsible and ethical conduct of research (RECR) diagnostic survey using case scenarios from biology course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs).

Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are increasingly becoming the first, and perhaps only, research experience for many biology students. Responsible and ethical conduct of research (RECR) is crucial for the integrity of scientific research and essential for students to have an understanding of the scientific process at any academic level. However, there is a current lack of RECR education in biology CUREs. To understand the level of RECR knowledge and skills in undergraduate students, we created a diagnostic survey that uses case scenarios designed to illustrate RECR issues in the CURE classroom. Analysis of students' responses indicated that the overall percentage of students who are able to effectively use RECR terminology and identify the impact of RECR violations on science integrity and ultimately on society is low. Furthermore, some students equated RECR violations to academic dishonesty, indicating difficulties separating the research and academic aspects of CUREs. This diagnostic tool can aid instructors in identifying gaps in student RECR knowledge for the subsequent development of RECR educational interventions, particularly to ensure the integrity of the research performed in CURE settings.

Knowledge of Medical Students Towards the Re-emergence of Human Monkeypox Virus.

Comparison of Turkish Pre-Service Science Teachers and Secondary School Students within the Scope of Natural History Topics

"Natural history includes the period from the formation of the Earth to recent times and all the changes it has gone through throughout this vast period. The biggest challenge in understanding natural history is the age of the Earth. Even though natural history is quite difficult to understand, pre-service science teachers are expected to be knowledgeable about this matter to a fundamental degree. Therefore, this study aims to determine the knowledge levels of secandary school students and pre-service science teachers on some natural history topics and compare compare these two groups in this context. . To conduct such research in which a qualitativenatured case study design was used, the data obtained through 15 open-ended questions were analyzed through content analysis. As a result, percentages of correct answers regarding the time perception component were quite low both for secaondary students and pre-service science teachers. While both groups were close in the component of the transformation of the Earth, it was founden that students answered more questions correctly. As expected, pre-service teachers correctly answered more questions regarding the component of diversity of living things than the students."
