Implementing Team Based Learning of Pharmacology Subject in Year 1 MBBS Programme, UiTM: A Reflection of First Experience and Ways to Move Forward

This reflection paper describes the implementation of Team-Based Learning (TBL) in the pharmacology curriculum for first-year MBBS students at the Faculty of Medicine, UiTM during the Musculoskeletal (MSK) module. TBL was primarily introduced to overcome the challenges and limitations inherent in traditional tutorial methods, including a shortage of teaching staff and the lack of an interactive, student-centred learning approach. The TBL format consists of Individual Readiness Assurance Test (iRAT), Team Readiness Assurance Test (tRAT), an appeal session to clarify iRAT and tRAT, and an application exercise using problem-based questions (PBQs). This approach fosters active learning, promote critical thinking, and encourage teamwork. This paper also reflects on the process, highlighting the importance of preparation by both educators and students, as well as thorough grouping process of the students to enhance team dynamics. Challenges faced including various technological issues, facilitator inexperience, and the suitability of clinical cases are discussed, with suggestions for improvement. These include having a more diverse case materials and structured peer feedback in the future. The experience showed that TBL encourages student engagement, collaboration, and a deeper understanding of pharmacological concepts. In conclusion, TBL fosters essential skills like critical thinking, communication, and teamwork, which are crucial for future medical professionals. Although TBL requires substantial preparation, it minimizes passive learning and enables facilitators to manage larger groups more effectively. Additionally, TBL approach allows the identification of students’ misunderstandings of fundamental pharmacological concepts that requires further explanation by the facilitators. This collaborative approach minimizes the need for multiple facilitators, allowing them to focus on providing targeted feedback and managing larger groups more effectively.

Participation rates, characteristics, and differential effects on reading literacy of extracurricular tutoring in a German large-scale assessment

Because large-scale studies repeatedly indicated low reading literacy for many students, a need for interventions fostering reading literacy, such as extracurricular tutoring, has often been emphasized. Several reading promoting programs, suitable for extracurricular tutoring, were developed and shown to be effective in recent years. Moreover, these studies and analyses of extracurricular activities and tutoring yielded findings on learning-supporting characteristics and effects on students’ achievement of such extracurricular offers. Nevertheless, little is known to date about the implementation of extracurricular tutoring in practice in Germany, particularly about its participation rates, characteristics, and effects on students` reading literacy. Thus, the present study investigated participation rates of extracurricular tutoring in reading and in German among students in general and among various subgroups between Grades 5 and 7. Furthermore, the study examined general and subject-specific characteristics and effects of extracurricular tutoring on reading literacy. The analyses used a sample of students (N = 5113) of the National Educational Panel Study in Germany. In addition to descriptive analyses of characteristics and participation rates of extracurricular tutoring, effect sizes were calculated for comparing participation rates of subgroups of students. Furthermore, multi-group structural equation models were implemented to investigate average and differential effects of extracurricular tutoring, while controlling for initial reading literacy and other covariates. The results indicate that mainly students with low reading literacy and therefore a strong need for support participated in extracurricular tutoring, but the general participation rate was low. The descriptive outcomes showed a heterogeneous picture of tutoring offers and rare implementations of reading-promoting methods. Moreover, the results revealed no significant effects of extracurricular tutoring on students’ reading literacy overall but suggested marginal differences for students with a low initial reading literacy. For future studies, more detailed assessments of characteristics and methods of extracurricular tutoring are recommended, particularly, in large-scale investigations on specific tutoring methods for students with support needs which may lead to improved guidelines regarding promising implementations of evidence-based reading promoting programs.

Comparison of Tutorial Methods in Virtual Reality Games for a Better User Experience

The commercialisation of virtual reality (VR) headsets has made them more affordable and popular in gaming and entertainment. The natural interaction between the VR environment and users can maximise immersion and is crucial to VR gaming. Despite their growing popularity, educational VR games prioritise learning over immersion and require users to learn to interact with and play games using tutorials. Herein, we developed a game named Numverse with an accompanying tutorial. After selecting the tutorial content, we programmed the user interface and proposed a delivery method for the tutorial. We evaluated the user experience based on the effects of the presence or absence of the tutorial and its mode of delivery. The tutorials were of three types: no tutorial, instruction-screen tutorial, and context-sensitive tutorial, with the latter being the most preferred. The evaluation results show that presence, ability to learn controls, intrinsic motivation, and learning effectiveness are higher for the instruction-screen and context-sensitive tutorials than for no tutorial. On average, users experienced more motion sickness in the no-tutorial case, with a significant difference in nausea items. This study asserts the importance of tutorials in VR games, and its findings could improve user experience in future VR games.

University Students’ Plagiarism Behaviours in Writing Instruction: A Systematic Review

The literature indicates that students' understanding of plagiarism and academic writing skills impact their plagiarism behaviour. However, there has yet to be a review that explores the methods, supporting tools, and content of writing instruction that can effectively reduce plagiarism behaviour at the university level. Therefore, this systematic review aims to present academic writing instruction that can prevent plagiarism behaviour. The review data was derived from four different databases, EBSCO, Wiley, Proquest, and JSTOR, published from 2010 to 2022. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) standards were used to ensure that the review was systematically carried out. Based on the 22 articles reviewed, tutorial methods and workshops were most used to provide knowledge on plagiarism, followed by writing skills content, and guided writing practice. Writing skills content comprised word choice, grammar, citation, paraphrasing, and referencing concerning plagiarism prevention. This study also found that Rubrics and Turnitin applications were widely used as supporting tools for plagiarism checking and as feedback for the students. Implementing writing instruction coupled with plagiarism education and feedback can change students' plagiarism behaviour and improve their confidence in academic writing.
