Rebecca S. Rivard – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2025
Escape rooms are collaborative puzzle solving activities that require the participants to utilize logical reasoning and teamwork. With a slight refocusing on previously acquired knowledge, escape rooms can also be used to test and promote learning of certain topics. This paper describes the development of a one-hour in-person STEM focused escape…

Matthew R. Simon – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Responsive teaching is an approach to instruction that foregrounds listening for, attending to and engaging with student disciplinary thinking and ideas in the classroom. This style of teaching differs from how many traditional STEM classes are taught, especially at the college level. Entry-level college science courses that are taught by graduate…

Schafer, Jennifer L.; Guenther, Courtney H.; Stovall, Daniel B.; Brown, LaShardai N.; Glasscock, Laura N.; Stern, Matthew M. – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2022
Connections between students and faculty on campus may influence students' sense of belonging, and a greater sense of belonging has a positive effect on student success. We developed a low-cost, faculty-led program of community-building events and implemented the program in the biology department at a small liberal-arts institution with the goal…

Kiser, Stacey; Kayes, Lori J.; Baumgartner, Erin; Kruchten, Anne; Stavrianeas, Stasinos – American Biology Teacher, 2022
Barriers to transfer students include lost credit caused by lack of curricular alignment across institutions of higher learning. This is particularly evident in series courses like introductory biology. We propose to streamline transfer issues using a shared set of course-level learning outcomes (CLOs) developed collaboratively by faculty across…

Cicuto, Camila Aparecida Tolentino; Torres, Bayardo Baptista – Journal of Chemical Education, 2016
The Biochemistry: Biomolecules Structure and Metabolism course's goal is to promote meaningful learning through an active learning environment. Thus, study periods (SP) and discussion groups (DG) are used as a substitute for lecture classes. The goal of this study was to evaluate how this learning environment influences students' motivation (n =…
