Mayara Fontanelli dos Santos; Ana Luiza de Camargo Doimo; Numbia Aparecida Lima; Josenilton de Jesus dos Santos; Marcos V. Palmeira-Mello; Caterina G. C. Marques Netto – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
The course-based undergraduate research experiences (CURE) approach is increasingly being used in undergraduate experimental courses. Here, we describe the implementation of CURE in an upper-level inorganic chemistry course, in which students were assigned different current themes to study. This paper focuses on the theme of quantum dots,…

Sharday N. Ewell; Alayna Harvey; Amanda Clark; Megan E. Maloney; Laurie S. Stevison; Cissy J. Ballen – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2025
An inequitable distribution of resources and opportunities for marginalized students (i.e., opportunity gaps) leads to challenges in identifying effective study behaviors, metacognition, and academic help-seeking in higher education. While students benefit when these skills are taught explicitly through co-curricular workshops and courses, these…

Andrea L. Schuman; Alaa Abdalla; Jennifer Case; David B. Knight – Chemical Engineering Education, 2025
Study abroad attempts to prepare students to effectively work in a multi-national environment. This study compares students' experiences in a unit operations laboratory course offered in multiple modalities: at students' home university, and four- and eight-week study abroad. The results examine the impact of support on students' learning and…
