Katie Cunningham; Mackenzie Enmeier; Grayson Huldin; Giorgio Bacchin; Kara Grossman; Grace Recker; Bruce Mattson – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Cyclopropane can be hydrogenated to produce propane under moderately high temperatures ([tilde]175 [degrees]C). Using a nanoparticle palladium catalyst, undergraduate students can explore the reaction and draw conclusions regarding the conditions for reaction. When deuterium is used, conclusions pertaining to the reaction mechanism are possible.…

F. Venturi – European Journal of Education, 2025
Final year individual projects have always been the culmination of a student's curriculum at university, requiring knowledge and skills gained over the whole course. However, with time, their scope and aim have moved from a more traditional research-oriented one to a more modular structure, where specific skills are demonstrated and assessed. This…

Andrew James Couzens; Amy Johnson; Jan Cattoni – Studies in Graduate and Postdoctoral Education, 2025
Purpose: Securing ethical approval can be a frustrating and opaque experience for some creative practice research students who may find the processes required of them not well suited to their specific inquiry. This can lead to an erosion of trust between students and their institutions. This paper aims to synthesize perspectives representing both…

Ruifeng Zhou – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
This study aims to give chemistry students a deeper understanding of electron shielding and quantum transitions by interpreting the characteristic X-ray lines. There is a popular misunderstanding among learners and even teachers in which an outer-shell electron fills a vacancy in the inner shell, releasing some of its energy as an X-ray photon.…

Inouye, Kelsey – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2023
The early phase of doctoral education is a critical yet under-researched period in PhD programs, when doctoral researchers must solidify their thesis projects prior to embarking on data collection. What makes this time particularly challenging is that new doctoral researchers synthesize their research thinking while they are still learning the…

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…

Bertram, Anna; Tomas, Carmen – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2023
Engaging students actively in assessment, using a range of formative activities, consistently over sustained periods is a common recommendation in the assessment for learning literature. Despite this, practice still lags behind. Our case study aims to bridge the widening gap between theory and practice by illustrating the application of recent…

Gregory, Diana; Fisher, Jonathan; Leavitt, Hayley – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2021
Research in visual arts, according to Winters (2015), is an unusual situation in that artists must offer details about how their artistic process represents a methodology, what its research methods are, and why this is an appropriate, reliable, and valid procedure. In this reflective article the authors chronicle working together from fall 2017…

Parrott, Jill; Napier, Trenia – Journal of College Reading and Learning, 2023
This research asks whether a competency-based curriculum designed to integrate information literacy, critical reading, and writing improves students' ability to critically read sources and then use source content for their own purposes. We hypothesized that critical reading-infused library instruction, course instruction, and curriculum support…
