Dwivedi, Rajeev; Kumar, Arpan; Babu, Bharathy; Grandhi, Nipun; Meka, Rishi; Ahuja, Varun – Education Sciences, 2021
Finding context, examples, and ample hands-on experimentation is fundamental for understanding complex ideas in subjects such as science and math. Recent popularity of competitive robotics has become a catalyst in the development of DIY and hobby kits. Manufacturers have made available easy to work, re-configurable, and functional, structural…

Gamage, Kusali; McFadden, Rory R.; Macdonald, R. Heather – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2021
Community colleges are a major entry point for many students to post-secondary education, particularly for minority, first-generation, low-income, and older students. A range of factors including transfer-readiness, curricular alignment, financial barriers, and transfer guidance, influence successful transfer between two-year colleges (2YCs) and…

Salgado-Jauregui, Estefanía; Martindale, Rowan C.; Ellins, Katherine; Reyes, Enrique; Weiss, Anna – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2022
Although many have suggested the use of games to motivate active learning, studies that evaluate the learning outcomes of games with high school students are scarce. Here, we present the evaluation of the board game "Taphonomy: Dead and Fossilized" as an active learning tool to teach fossilization and Earth systems thinking with rising…

Innovative models of teaching through research have broken the long-held paradigm that core chemistry competencies must be taught with predictable, scripted experiments. We describe here five fundamentally different, course-based undergraduate research experiences that integrate faculty research projects, accomplish ACS accreditation objectives,…

Esquinca, Alberto; Araujo, Blanca; de la Piedra, María Teresa – Bilingual Research Journal, 2014
The article analyzes meaning-making practices in a two-way dual-language (TWDL) program on the U.S.-Mexico border among "transfronterizo" and Mexican-origin youth. In the article, we show that emergent bilingual learners and their teacher participate in activities that mediate understanding of science content knowledge. We show how the…

Iyer, Rupa S.; Wales, Melinda E. – Advances in Engineering Education, 2012
The increasingly interdisciplinary nature of today's scientific research is leading to the transformation of undergraduate education. In addressing these needs, the University of Houston's College of Technology has developed a new interdisciplinary research-based biotechnology laboratory curriculum. Using the pesticide degrading bacterium,…
