“…Despite students, and young people in general, having often advanced online searching skills and easy access to information, they still lack the necessary ability to critically appraise what they have retrieved (Leckie & Fullerton, 1999;Pinto, 2010). There have been many holistic approaches to evaluating the importance and impact of IL (Johnston & Webber, 2003;Mooney, Collie, Nicholson & Sosulski, 2014), but more recent trends involve the consideration of additional factors, such as game based learning, which exploits young people's attraction to play and games (Walsh, 2015), or information problem solving classes, based on a 'hands on' approach to information seeking and appraisal (Wopereis, Frerejean & Brand-Gruwel, 2015).…”

“…The four-component instructional design (4C/ID) model is specifically tailored to complex learning processes and, therefore, is suitable for the teaching of Bayesian Reasoning. Moreover, empirical results show that the 4C/ID model is a very effective instructional method as it has been used for designing training programs within different domains, such as medicine [53] and problem solving [54], among others (e.g., [55,56]). A recent meta-analysis showed that developing educational programs with 4C/ID resulted in a positive impact on performance with a strong effect size [57].…”

How to Train Novices in Bayesian Reasoning

Bayesian Reasoning is both a fundamental idea of probability and a key model in applied sciences for evaluating situations of uncertainty. Bayesian Reasoning may be defined as the dealing with, and understanding of, Bayesian situations. This includes various aspects such as calculating a conditional probability (performance), assessing the effects of changes to the parameters of a formula on the result (covariation) and adequately interpreting and explaining the results of a formula (communication). Bayesian Reasoning is crucial in several non-mathematical disciplines such as medicine and law. However, even experts from these domains struggle to reason in a Bayesian manner. Therefore, it is desirable to develop a training course for this specific audience regarding the different aspects of Bayesian Reasoning. In this paper, we present an evidence-based development of such training courses by considering relevant prior research on successful strategies for Bayesian Reasoning (e.g., natural frequencies and adequate visualizations) and on the 4C/ID model as a promising instructional approach. The results of a formative evaluation are described, which show that students from the target audience (i.e., medicine or law) increased their Bayesian Reasoning skills and found taking part in the training courses to be relevant and fruitful for their professional expertise.

“…Competencies are defined as complex cognitive skills, consisting of integrated sets of constituent skills with their underlying knowledge structures and attitudes [30]. The 4C/ID model has a strong foundation in research and has already been applied in various settings [31], such as teacher training [32], communication training [33], medical education [34,35], technical training [36,37], computer programming training [38], and information problem solving [39]. The model states that educational programs can always be described in terms of four interrelated components (see Figure 3).…”

Virtual reality (VR) is an emerging technology with a variety of potential benefits for vocational training. Therefore, this paper presents a VR training based on the highly validated 4C/ID model to train vocational competencies in the field of vehicle painting. The following 4C/ID components were designed using the associated 10 step approach: learning tasks, supportive information, procedural information, and part-task practice. The paper describes the instructional design process including an elaborated blueprint for a VR training application for aspiring vehicle painters. We explain the model’s principles and features and their suitability for designing a VR vocational training that fosters integrated competence acquisition. Following the methodology of design-based research, several research methods (e.g., a target group analysis) and the ongoing development of prototypes enabled agile process structures. Results indicate that the 4C/ID model and the 10 step approach promote the instructional design process using VR in vocational training. Implementation and methodological issues that arose during the design process (e.g., limited time within VR) are adequately discussed in the article.
