“…Make students feel that teachers can treat every student equally, but also let students feel that they are an indispensable part of the collective, so that every student has a sense of belonging. (is will naturally make the relationship between teachers and students closer, harmonious, and tacit understanding [24,25].…”

With the rapid development of information technology and network technology and the new requirements of education and teaching in the new era, 3D video technology has been more and more widely used in the field of education and teaching. Educational psychology plays a positive role in the field of education. Applying its relevant theories to classroom teaching is not only conducive to the establishment of a good teacher-student relationship but also helps teachers to understand the psychological characteristics and learning process of students, so as to greatly improve the quality of teaching. Therefore, this article is based on 3D video analysis technology, through the observation of the teaching video and coding, the verbal interaction between teachers and students’ lines of code and data analysis, mainly to its frequency, specific length and single length data used for analysis, explores the lesson for the current situation of the teaching video case teacher’s teaching behavior, commonness, and difference. From the perspective of learner psychology, the model of teacher’s teaching behavior in MOOCs teaching video is constructed. On the other hand, from the perspective of coding system and learner psychology, this paper proposes the improvement strategies of teachers’ teaching behavior in MOOCs teaching videos in China. The results show that the application of 3D video analysis method and educational psychology in student education can improve student work efficiency.

“…However, when mathematics is taught with student-centered pedagogies such as cooperative learning, personalization of instruction and problem-based learning, students would view mathematics as a meaningful subject full of applications to the real life which may result to unified formations. In essence, there is a stable configuration of relationships between using deep approaches and attaining good academic performance whereas surface approaches have been connected with worse academic performance (Bonsaksen, Brown, Lim, & Fong, 2017;Bonsaksen, 2018;Alt & Boniel-Nissim, 2018).…”

An exploration of factor analytic structure of the conceptions of mathematics scale among pre-service mathematics teachers in South-West Nigeria was conducted as evidence suggests paucity of research on psychometric properties of the conceptions of mathematics scale in Nigeria.This article through instrumentation research methodology reports the reliability and validity of the Conceptions of Mathematics Scale based on the responses of 228 pre-service mathematics teachers from five public universities in South-West Nigeria. The reliability assessed as internal consistency produced a Cronbach alpha of .88. A principal components exploration with varimax gyration established the validity of the scale as two-component archetypal accounting for 48.9% of the total variance. The dimensions were taken as Patchy Formations and Unified Formations of mathematics, as explicated in the original and other replicating studies. The factor solution could be compared to that recounted in the previous studies; hence the outcome showed the need to adopt the scale in the Nigerian context, as the pedagogy implemented during the teaching and learning of mathematics can influence students’ conceptions of mathematics. Thus, teaching mathematics with rules-based and algorithm-dependent teacher-centered pedagogies might result into rote memorization thereby leading to patchy formations while teaching mathematics as a meaningful subject full of applications to the real life could engender conceptual understanding leading to unified formations. The implication of this study is that students with patchy formation are connected with surface approaches to learning while those with unified formation of mathematics are connected with deep approaches to learning and engaging mathematics.

“…However, the 'Conceptions of learning' and 'Preferences for teaching' measures, representing Parts I and III of the ASSIST, have been far less investigated (Bonsaksen & Thørrisen, 2017;Entwistle, personal communication, September 29, 2016). These parts of the ASSIST have only rarely been employed with occupational therapy students (Bonsaksen, 2018a(Bonsaksen, , 2018bBrown & Murdolo, 2016;Carstensen et al, 2018), and to our knowledge, never in the context of American occupational therapy education. Thus, the validity and reliability of the instrument in this context is not known.…”

When planning to use measurement scales in new samples and contexts, examining the scales' psychometric properties is an important initial step. This study examined the factor structure and internal consistency of two measures that are part of the Approaches and Study Skills Inventory for Students (ASSIST)-the Conceptions of learning and Preferences for teaching and courses-in a sample of American occupational therapy students. The students (n = 115) completed the measures and provided basic sociodemographic information. Scale structure was examined with Principal Components Analysis (PCA), while consistency between scale items was assessed with mean inter-item correlations. For the Conceptions of learning measure, one item was removed due to cross-loading between factors. The subsequent analysis revealed two factors, representing deep and surface conceptions of learning, on which the items-with one exception-loaded in line with theory. For the Preferences for teaching and courses measure, two factors were found, representing preferences denoted in theory as supporting understanding and transmitting information, respectively. The items showed good fit with the two theoretically proposed factors. The scales' mean inter-item correlations were satisfactory, ranging 0.27-0.36. One item on the Conceptions of learning measure appears to be problematic due to crossloading, and another may be interpreted in a different way than originally proposed. After removing the problematic item, all scales showed satisfactory psychometric properties for assessing conceptions of learning and preferences for teaching.
