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.…

Ognenka Avramovska; Megan E. Rokop – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2024
Undergraduate research experiences are key to preparing STEM students for a range of careers and graduate programs, and to impacting retention in STEM. Providing undergraduate research experiences can be challenging for institutions due to the high cost associated with equipment and reagents, lab space, and research mentors. In this study, we…

Jillian C. Ford; Jason Dossett; Misty D. Lambert; R. G. Easterly III – Journal of Agricultural Education, 2025
One of the tools middle school SBAE teachers can use to deliver the total program is research-based SAEs, for which students can receive recognition through the FFA Agriscience Fair. This study examined why middle school SBAE teachers implemented the FFA Agriscience Fair into their programs. This study built on previous literature in this area,…

Maysoon Lehmeidi – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The number of students interested in pursuing STEM in post-secondary institutions is on the decline. This is due to several factors, one being a lack of effective and innovative science enrichment (summer or after-school) programs for high school students (Baran et al., 2019; Kong et al., 2014). While traditional lecture-based science courses…

Yu Xia; Stephanie Cutler; Ibukun Osunbunmi; Sarah E. Zappe; Esther W. Gomez; Stephanie Velegol; Minkyung Lee – Advances in Engineering Education, 2024
Integrating humanities and arts into STEM has been suggested to better prepare students for the workforce. Studies have shown that improvisation (abbreviated as improv), an educational program from humanities and arts, can potentially improve engineering pedagogy and learning. However, little is known about improv's impact on developing…

Mary Ellen Dello Stritto; Naomi R. Aguiar; Greta R. Underhill; Cat Turk; Gretchen Lohry-Smith; Raquel Lamantain – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2025
In higher education, online students are often precluded from research assistantships that are more accessible for campus-based students. At a highly ranked institution for online learning, we developed the Undergraduate Research Program (URP) to address this gap in opportunities for online students. The URP is designed to engage fully distanced…
