Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Pedagogy
  • Mathematics education
  • Educational technology

David Gijbels mainly focuses on Mathematics education, Pedagogy, Learning environment, Educational psychology and Cooperative learning. His work on Educational research and Educational assessment as part of general Mathematics education research is frequently linked to Sample and Program evaluation, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. He works mostly in the field of Educational research, limiting it down to topics relating to Variables and, in certain cases, Problem-based learning.

His Problem-based learning research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Developmental psychology, Inclusion, Empirical research and Moderation. In Pedagogy, he works on issues like Perception, which are connected to Recall, Social psychology and Applied psychology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Constructivism and Teaching method, Constructivist teaching methods in addition to Educational psychology.

His most cited work include:

  • Effects of problem-based learning: a meta- analysis (1122 citations)
  • Effects of Problem-Based Learning: A Meta-Analysis From the Angle of Assessment: (558 citations)
  • The impact of instructional development in higher education: the state-of-the-art of the research (203 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Mathematics education, Pedagogy, Medical education, Student learning and Problem-based learning. His Teaching method, Cooperative learning, Learning environment, Constructivist teaching methods and Teacher education study are his primary interests in Mathematics education. Many of his studies on Teaching method involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Developmental psychology.

His Cooperative learning study which covers Active learning that intersects with Blended learning. His Pedagogy study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Perception. His biological study deals with issues like Artificial intelligence, which deal with fields such as Machine learning.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mathematics education (35.76%)
  • Pedagogy (25.83%)
  • Medical education (11.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Mathematics education (35.76%)
  • Pedagogy (25.83%)
  • Active learning (7.28%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

David Gijbels mainly investigates Mathematics education, Pedagogy, Active learning, Eye tracking and Field. His work in the fields of Teaching method and Integrative learning overlaps with other areas such as Engineering education. His Teaching method research includes themes of Social support and Alternative teacher certification.

His work on Educational psychology and Professional development as part of general Pedagogy research is frequently linked to Key and Workplace learning, bridging the gap between disciplines. His research investigates the connection between Active learning and topics such as Self-efficacy that intersect with problems in Explanatory power, Control, Self-regulated learning and Knowledge level. In his study, Operationalization and Cognitive psychology is strongly linked to Educational research, which falls under the umbrella field of Student learning.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Do Students Develop Towards More Deep Approaches to Learning During Studies? A Systematic Review on the Development of Students’ Deep and Surface Approaches to Learning in Higher Education (60 citations)
  • student diversity in a cross-continental EU-simulation exploring variation in affective learning outcomes among political science students (13 citations)
  • How are learning strategies reflected in the eyes? Combining results from self-reports and eye-tracking (11 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Pedagogy
  • Educational technology
  • Social psychology

Eye tracking, Mathematics education, Eye movement, Educational psychology and Social psychology are his primary areas of study. David Gijbels integrates Mathematics education with Constructive in his study. His research in Educational psychology intersects with topics in Social cognitive theory and Explained variation.

His Social psychology study combines topics in areas such as Analysis of covariance and Cognitive psychology. The Applied psychology study combines topics in areas such as Moderation and Medical education. His Developmental psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cooperative learning, Self-efficacy and Empirical research.
