Networking frameworks: a method for analyzing the complexities of classroom cultures focusing on justifying

In this paper, we network five frameworks (cognitive demand, lesson cohesion, cognitive engagement, collective argumentation, and student contribution) for an analytic approach that allows us to present a more holistic picture of classrooms which engage students in justifying. We network these frameworks around the edges of the instructional triangle as a means to coordinate them to illustrate the observable relationships among teacher, students(s), and content. We illustrate the potential of integrating these frameworks via analysis of two lessons that, while sharing surface level similarities, are profoundly different when considering the complexities of a classroom focused on justifying. We found that this integrated comparison across all dimensions (rather than focusing on just one or two) was a useful way to compare lessons with respect to a classroom culture that is characterized by students engaging in justifying.

Medical Students Contribution as a Refining Tool for the Conventional Educational System

One of the most important things that accentuate an institutions greater advancement is its pursuit of change. Student contribution has been advocated for by many well-standing universities and has proven a better approach and a more refined way of an exuberant advancement both academically and personally. This article highlights how such contribution can be administered using novel approaches while preserving the main guidelines for graduating not only health care providers but also researchers and life-long learners. The new prospect of students as beneficial assets provides an educational institution with valuable creative ideas, eye sights that can detect points of possible reform in the educational system, and another significant voice to the making of future decisions. The faculty has successfully been able to apply certain characteristics- self-independence, new rational scope, practical and tutoring skills- to undergraduates through peer-to-peer learning technique, medical poster presentation skills, and case-based learning manner.

Data were collected through observation and recording. The collected data were analysed by Walsh using discourse analysis. Findings show there are 30 patterns in 18 exchanges of teacher-student interaction in the classroom. The type of designs are: IR, IRE, IRRE, IRRF, IRREIRE, IRRRE, IRF, IRFRRRERE, IRR, IRRRRRRE, IRRFRE, IRI, IRRRRRE, IIIII, IIRE, IRFRE, IIRE, IIIR, IIR, IEIRRI, IRFR, IRRRRRRRRRRRRE, IRRRRRRRER, IEI, IRRRRF, IIIIRRF, IIIIRR, IRRII, IRFII, IREI. The impacts of the type interaction pattern to the student contribution are: student can repeat the teacher initiation, a student could express their idea, a student could ask the question on the teacher explanation, student response appropriate for teacher talk.
