“…The production of artwork involves solving numerous problems; therefore, the artist must first solve these problems by thinking critically and even critiquing him-or herself before the observer sees the artwork. In this manner, producing artwork is a problem-solving process (Dudek & Cote, 1994) that includes ill-structured problems (e.g., Dorst education disciplines (Stalker, Cullen, &Kloesel, 2015), Mergendoller, Maxwell, andBellisimo (2006) claimed that few studies have examined the effectiveness of this approach. In addition, other studies have claimed that few studies have analyzed the effects of PBL (Chan, 2013), and there is no consensus regarding its effectiveness (Strobel & van Barneveld, 2009).…”

“…Learning which can improve problem solving skills includes: 1) Modeling Instruction (Hestenes, 1987;Wells, Hestenes, & Swackhamer, 1995;Halloun, 2007;Malone, 2007;Jackson, Dukerich, & Hestenes, 2008;Brewe, 2008;Wright, 2012) and 2Problem-Based Learning (Skinner, Braunack-Mayer, & Winning, 2015;Ageorges, Bacilia, Poutot, & Blandin, 2014;Temel, 2014;Klegeris, 2013;and Arends, 2012). The former refers to a learning which accommodates physical modeling; which, according to Etkina, Warren, & Gentile (2006), can be used to describe and explain physics phenomena, while the latter is a learning which makes use of authentic and meaningful problems discovered by students as a starting point to acquire new knowledge (Stalker, Cullen, & Kloesel, 2014;Batdi, 2014;Temel, 2014). Therefore, both Modeling Instruction and Problem-Based Learning are often adapted in physics learning to improve students' physics problem solving skills.…”

The design of a teaching model must qualify to be applicable or practical and effective, therefore the research aimed to analyze the practicality and effectiveness of the IBMR (Investigation-Based Multiple Representation) teaching model in improving physics problems solving skills of bachelor programs’ students. The research was conducted by applying the one-group pre-test and post-test pre-experimental design to 186 students of study program of physics education, mathematics education, and mechanical engineering. The practicality of the model is assessed using an observation sheet and the effectiveness is determined based on pre-test and post-test physics problem solving skills. The collected data were analyzed using the calculation of average scores of the feasibility of each phase of the IBMR, t-test, and n-gain. The results show that each phase of the IBMR teaching model can be implemented by a lecturer with good and reliable categories, and relevant student activities, so that the IBMR teaching model is practicality qualified. It is also effective shown by: there are increasing score of physics problem solving skills at  = 5%, average n-gain with moderate categorized and not different or consistent for each pair of groups, and good-categorized students’ responses on each component of teaching. Keywords: IBMR teaching model, model practicality, model effectiveness, physics problem solving skills, bachelor programs’ students.

“…Previous studies investigating warning response have utilized focus groups to provide feedback. Studies use focus groups to provide feedback on surveys prior to their implementation (Jauernic and Van Den Broeke 2017;Stalker et al 2015;Baumgart et al 2008).…”

Tornadoes are nature’s most violent storm and annually cause billions in damage along with the threat of fatalities and injuries. To improve tornado warnings, the National Weather Service is considering a change from a deterministic to a probabilistic paradigm. While studies have been conducted on how individual behavior may change with the new While studies have been conducted on how individual behavior may change with the new businesses. This project is a response to the Weather Research and Forecasting Innovation Act of 2017, H.R. 353, which calls for the use of social and behavioral science to study and improve storm warning systems. The goal is to discuss business response to probabilistic tornado warnings through descriptive and regression-based statistics using a survey administered to businesses in North Texas. Prior to release, the survey was vetted by a focus group comprised of businesses in Grayson County, TX who assisted in the creation of a behavior ranking scale. The scale ranked behaviors from low to high effort. Responses allowed for determining if the business reacted to the warning in a passive or active manner. Returned surveys came from large and small businesses in North Texas and represent a wide variety of industries. Regression analysis explores which variables have the greatest influence on businesses’ behavior and show that beyond increases in probability from the probabilistic warnings, trust in the warning provides the most significant change to behavior.
