Summary: This study evaluated the effect of tutor shadowing on the teaching skills of novice problem-based learning (PBL) tutors and developed a tutoring-skill scale (TS-scale). The results showed that tutor shadowing significantly improved the teaching confidence of novice PBL tutors across three key domains of tutoring competencies. The TS-scale developed in this study can be used in future research on faculty development design.

Summary: This scoping review examines the influence of group function on individual student outcomes in problem-based learning (PBL). The review suggests that group function is more predictive of experiential outcomes than academic or behavioral outcomes. More research is needed to understand the complexity of group function in PBL tutorials and inform curricular training and design.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of cognitive and social congruence on learning outcomes in online student tutorials. The results show that in an online learning environment, both students and student tutors demonstrate high levels of cognitive and social congruence, with students perceiving student tutors to be more socially congruent. Learning success increases during online tutorials and is not influenced by cognitive congruence. Therefore, cognitive and social congruence significantly contribute to the effectiveness of online student tutorials.

Summary: This study used MRI to analyze the impact of social isolation on brain and cognitive aging. The results showed that social isolation was associated with smaller hippocampal volumes, reduced cortical thickness, and poorer cognitive functions. These findings suggest that promoting social networks can help reduce the risk of dementia.
