Jakub A. Konkol; George Tsilomelekis – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Preprocessing is a critical step in the analysis pipeline of spectroscopic data. However, students are rarely introduced to preprocessing when learning spectral techniques in laboratory courses which in turn may affect and delay their progress in the field. Despite its undoubtable importance, students will be mainly performing spectroscopic…

Vincent A. Sichula – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
A multistep synthesis of a metal-free organic dye-sensitizer for solar cells was developed as a multifaceted research project for upper-division undergraduate students with a goal of introducing students to the application of organic synthesis in material science, and renewable energy research. The characterization of the dye is done by thin-layer…

Jixiang Cao; Hao Chen; Qing Song; Hong Sun; Hua Yang; Yun Bai – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2024
Experimental teaching is an important part of postgraduate training in basic and clinical medicine. While primary cell isolation and identification are among the most important research techniques for medical graduate students, most graduate students do not understand and master these techniques before starting their research experience. In…

Sydney Demers; Joshua Fung-A-Fat; Jeremy Andreatta; Margaret E. Kerr; Weichu Xu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Undergraduate organic chemistry laboratory courses act as a baseline for introductory scientific experimentation. These courses provide students with the knowledge and skills for their future careers. The traditional lab is conducted by providing a structured protocol of the experiment for the students to follow and reproduce the assigned task…

Darling, Randi A. – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2020
I teach an animal behavior course where students conduct independent research projects; however, using live animals for research is challenging at a small university. Often, students choose to conduct a laboratory project over a field project believing that it will be easier to observe animals and control variables, but it can be difficult and…

Merlis P. Alvarez-Berrios; Gabriele Haynes – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2023
Although Hispanic population is growing rapidly, Latino students earn fewer STEM degrees than their peers. Therefore, it is mandatory to implement strategies that improve STEM retention and graduation rates for Hispanic students. There is little research about the ways in which multicampus collaborative CUREs combined with additional academic…

Martin, Erika C. – American Biology Teacher, 2021
This project involves students in a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) as part of the traditional introductory biology laboratory course. Recently, research has shown that student engagement in authentic research has significant positive impacts on students, such as development of science literacy and reasoning skills. Being…

Debije, Michael G. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
This work presents an outline for a full-quartile design-based learning laboratory-based course suitable for final year Bachelor's students. The course has been run for 5 years in the department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry. The course attempts to provide a complete laboratory experience for its students, including an authentic research…

Maher, Carolyn; Schazmann, Benjamin; Gornushkin, Igor B.; Rurack, Knut; Gojani, Ardian B. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and principal component analysis (PCA) are frequently used for analytical purposes in research and industry, but they seldom are part of the chemistry curriculum or laboratory exercises. This case study paper describes the combined application of LIBS and PCA during a research internship for an…

Ding, Yue-Min; Shen, Wei-Da; Yang, Jing; He, Yan; Wang, Lin-Lin; Zhang, Xiong – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
A physiology laboratory course plays an important role in improving the scientific abilities of medical students. This study involved a teaching reform based on problem-based self-designed experiments in a physiology laboratory course. The study subjects were divided into two groups, i.e., students enrolled in 2019 were assigned to the traditional…

Alneyadi, Aysha; Shah, Iltaf; Ashraf, Syed Salman – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2019
Active-learning strategies such as undergraduate research courses and course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), which engage students in the practical experiments, have been reported as efficient ways for effective teaching and training of graduating students. Recently, many practical examples have been published in various fields…

de Silva, Chamaree; Pullen, Jeffrey; Northcutt, Katharine; Jenkins, Jarred – Physics Teacher, 2019
Many university and high school introductory physics courses include a laboratory portion where students follow a manual to conduct "cookbook" experiments. Here, we present an authentic research project for introductory physics students that focuses on kinematics that can be done outside a formal laboratory space. This experiment can be…

Iqbal, Sarfraz – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2016
Information security (InfoSec) education becomes increasingly important. Building hands-on capabilities to tackle challenges is a precondition to mitigate and eliminate cyber threats. Existing studies, however, show that the field lacks pedagogically founded information security laboratories that can be used flexibly to educate both on-campus and…

Farnham, Kate R.; Dube, Danielle H. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2015
Here we present the development of a 13 week project-oriented biochemistry laboratory designed to introduce students to foundational biochemical techniques and then enable students to perform original research projects once they have mastered these techniques. In particular, we describe a semester-long laboratory that focuses on a biomedically…
