Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Pedagogy
  • Mathematics education
  • Educational technology

Michael Prosser spends much of his time researching Pedagogy, Mathematics education, Teaching method, Conceptual change and Teaching and learning center. His work on Blended learning as part of his general Pedagogy study is frequently connected to Online discussion, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Mathematics education research integrates issues from Philosophy of education and Chemistry.

Michael Prosser applies his multidisciplinary studies on Teaching method and Perspective in his research. The Teaching and learning center study combines topics in areas such as Educational technology and Active learning. His work deals with themes such as Cooperative learning, Open learning and Experiential learning, which intersect with Educational technology.

His most cited work include:

  • Understanding Learning and Teaching: the experience in higher education (1478 citations)
  • Relations between teachers' approaches to teaching and students' approaches to learning (1057 citations)
  • Improving the quality of student learning: the influence of learning context and student approaches to learning on learning outcomes (600 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Mathematics education, Pedagogy, Teaching method, Teaching and learning center and Medical education. The Experiential learning, Conceptual change, Active learning and Student learning research he does as part of his general Mathematics education study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Subject matter, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His studies deal with areas such as Cooperative learning, Open learning and Learning environment as well as Experiential learning.

His research in Cooperative learning intersects with topics in Educational technology and Learning sciences. His study on Phenomenography and Educational psychology is often connected to Perspective, Subject and Variation as part of broader study in Pedagogy. His studies in Teaching method integrate themes in fields like Class size, Educational research, Learning theory and Curriculum.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mathematics education (63.79%)
  • Pedagogy (50.86%)
  • Teaching method (30.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Mathematics education (63.79%)
  • Teaching method (30.17%)
  • Conceptual change (12.93%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mathematics education, Teaching method, Conceptual change, Cooperative learning and Curriculum. His work in the fields of Mathematics education, such as Learning theory and Problem-based learning, intersects with other areas such as University teaching, Variation and Structure. His Learning theory study incorporates themes from Frame and Set.

His Conceptual change study improves the overall literature in Pedagogy. His Curriculum research includes themes of Social psychology and Medical education. His study looks at the relationship between Experiential learning and topics such as Deep learning, which overlap with Syllabus and Learning environment.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Qualitative variation in approaches to university teaching and learning in large first-year classes (81 citations)
  • Qualitative variation in approaches to university teaching and learning in large first-year classes (81 citations)
  • Problem-based learning: Student learning experiences and outcomes (37 citations)

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

  • Mathematics education
  • Pedagogy
  • Curriculum

Michael Prosser focuses on Mathematics education, Teaching method, Conceptual change, Curriculum and Cooperative learning. His research in Mathematics education is mostly focused on Student learning. His Constructive alignment study in the realm of Curriculum interacts with subjects such as Variation and Function.

His Cooperative learning study is concerned with Pedagogy in general.
