本期与大家分享我院赵珂教授、张洁副教授与奥尔堡大学杜翔云教授合作发表于国际学术期刊Teaching in Higher Education（SSCI三区）的文章“Chinese Business Students’ Changes in Beliefs and Strategy Use in a Constructively Aligned PBL Course”（Published online: 04 April 2017）。
【Abstract】
This study adopted a longitudinal retrospective case study approach to investigate Chinese business students’ transitional learning experience in a problem-based learning (PBL) course with innovative assessment practices. It focused on students’ beliefs and strategy use in a constructively aligned PBL course for business communication. Eight students who had made notable progress were chosen for retrospective analysis. Data included 48 journals, interviews, and writing samples collected at different stages of the course. This study identified taxonomies of participants’ beliefs about learning and writing, their perceptions of assessment, and their strategy use. It also examined changes in beliefs, perceptions, and strategy use to unravel the nature of the students’ PBL learning experience. Findings suggest a recognised need to design PBL courses that align social constructivist learning principles with students’ beliefs and strategies. The results also highlight the importance of developing appropriate assessment rubrics to enhance student engagement with learning for improved outcomes.
