In this institution, birth kangaroo care was integrated into routine delivery room care, with nurses noting no change in nursing workload. Nurses have noted observing the crawling, latching, and successful breastfeeding of most infants. Because of the results of this pilot study, birth kangaroo care has been implemented successfully with all women who wish to participate.
Pair programming is a collaboration paradigm that has been increasingly adopted in computer science education. Research has established that pair programming can hold benefits for students' learning and attitudes, but comparatively little is known about the ways in which the collaborative process benefits students' CS learning. This paper examines the collaboration process, comparing important outcomes with how students' dialogue and problem-solving approaches unfolded. The results show that the collaboration is more effective when both partners make substantive dialogue contributions, express uncertainty, and resolve it. In particular, driver dialogue expressivity is associated with improved outcomes. The findings provide insight into the ways in which pair programming dialogue benefits student learning during CS problem solving.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
