Direct linkFeser, Jason; Vasaly, Helen; Herrera, Jose – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2013
In this paper, the authors describe how two institutions are helping their undergraduate biology students build quantitative competencies. Incorporation of quantitative skills and reasoning in biology are framed through a discussion of two cases that both concern introductory biology courses, but differ in the complexity of the mathematics and the…

Van Wylen, David G. L.; Abdella, Beth R. J.; Dickinson, Shelly D.; Engbrecht, Jason J.; Vandiver, Rebecca – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2013
Twenty-first-century biology is inherently interdisciplinary. Every aspect of biology, from molecules to organisms to ecosystems, is richly informed by the physical, mathematical, and computational sciences. It is both an exciting and daunting time for biology educators--exciting because of the vast opportunity for important new discoveries that…

Kim, Minkee; Aktan, Tugba – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2014
Studies have not yet consented whether integrating mathematics into science would enhance students' learning or confuse their understanding of abstract mathematical concepts. In spite of the social need for solving social-scientific problems with multiple facets, there has not been a holistic integration model of the disciplines. Hence, this study…
