| Summary: | This research focuses on the use of examples by university teachers. For this purpose, we used a questionnaire to ask 66 university teachers about the reasons and risks of using an example and the types of example they preferred. We also tested two hypotheses. The first was that the more experienced a teacher is, the more they will use examples when teaching. The second was that the perceived use of examples is different if the speaker is a man or a woman. The analysis of the results shows that all teachers acknowledge the positive impact of examples and, specifically, the cognitive, motivational and illustrative impact. We also show that only one teacher out of two considers examples to have negative effects at a cognitive, motivational and illustrative level. In addition, we also identify certain personal or didactic criteria as factors that influence the types of examples used by teachers. Finally, we also note that the teacher's seniority positively correlates with the number of examples used and that men and women use different types of example. |
