Seliem El-Sayed; Filip Paspalj – Research Ethics, 2024
Recital 33 GDPR has often been interpreted as referring to 'broad consent'. This version of informed consent was intended to allow data subjects to provide their consent for certain areas of research, or parts of research projects, conditional to the research being in line with 'recognised ethical standards'. In this article, we argue that broad…

Ethan C. Campbell; Katy M. Christensen; Mikelle Nuwer; Amrita Ahuja; Owen Boram; Junzhe Liu; Reese Miller; Isabelle Osuna; Stephen C. Riser – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2025
Scientific programming has become increasingly essential for manipulating, visualizing, and interpreting the large volumes of data acquired in earth science research. Yet few discipline-specific instructional approaches have been documented and assessed for their effectiveness in equipping geoscience undergraduate students with coding skills. Here…

Trofimova, Ellina; Asgharzadeh Kangachar, Shahla; Weynberg, Karen D.; Willows, Robert D.; Jaschke, Paul R. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
With the global increase of infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, there is an urgent need for new methods of tackling the issue. Genomic analysis of bacterial strains can help to understand their virulence and antibiotic resistance profile. Bioinformatic skills are in great demand across the biological sciences. We designed…

Ramírez-García, Antonia; González-Molina, Antonio; Gutiérrez-Arenas, María-del-Pilar; Moyano-Pacheco, Manuel – Comunicar: Media Education Research Journal, 2022
The impact of hate speech, both on a personal and social level, has increased due to social media. This has made it the focus of interest of numerous scientific journals, which increases the visibility of this global problem. The aim of this research is to analyse the basic descriptive metrics of the scientific production on hate speech and social…

Christopher Lore; Hee-Sun Lee; Amy Pallant; Charles Connor; Jie Chao – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
As computational methods are widely used in science disciplines, integrating computational thinking (CT) into classroom materials can create authentic science learning experiences for students. In this study, we classroom-tested a CT-integrated geoscience curriculum module designed for secondary students. The module consisted of three inquiry…

Rohstock, Anne – History of Education, 2021
This article charts some of the historical paths that have helped bring forth, in late-modern societies, what I call scientised educational discourses and practices. Though the project of forming the 'scientific man' can be traced back to the nineteenth century, it is argued that the nature of the project changed once it became aligned with the…

Undergraduate research experiences can improve student success in graduate education and STEM careers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, undergraduate researchers at our institution and many others lost their work-study research positions due to interruption of in-person research activities. This imposed a financial burden on the students and…

Polar research plays a vital role in developing our understanding of Earth's climate system. It is intrinsically interdisciplinary, lending itself to integration into existing undergraduate courses. Here we explore introducing undergraduates to polar research through computational guided inquiry (CGI) modules taught in a variety of courses and…

Moral, Cristian; de Antonio, Angelica; Ferre, Xavier; Lara, Graciela – Information Research: An International Electronic Journal, 2015
Introduction: In this article we propose a qualitative analysis tool--a coding system--that can support the formalisation of the information-seeking process in a specific field: research in computer science. Method: In order to elaborate the coding system, we have conducted a set of qualitative studies, more specifically a focus group and some…

Anohah, Ebenezer; Oyelere, Solomon Sunday; Suhonen, Jarkko – International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning, 2017
The majority of the existing research regarding mobile learning in computing education has primarily focused on studying the effectiveness of, and in some cases reporting about, implemented mobile learning solutions. However, it is equally important to explore development and application perspectives on the integration of mobile learning into…

Tao, Jinsong; McClure, Stephen C.; Zhang, Xiaoxing; Waqas, Muhammad; Wen, Xishan – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
Assessments of new pedagogical practices usually rely on instructor oriented surveys and questionnaires to measure student perceptions of teaching methods; however, fixed response categories in structured questionnaires might bias results. This paper demonstrates a mixed methods approach using open and multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) for a…

Kjelvik, Melissa K.; Schultheis, Elizabeth H. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2019
Data are becoming increasingly important in science and society, and thus data literacy is a vital asset to students as they prepare for careers in and outside science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and go on to lead productive lives. In this paper, we discuss why the strongest learning experiences surrounding data literacy may arise…

Hickey, Timothy; Pontrello, Jason – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2016
Introductory undergraduate science courses are traditionally offered as distinct units without formalized student interaction between classes. To bridge science courses, the authors used three Honors Organic Chemistry projects paired with other science courses. The honors students delivered presentations to mainstream organic course students and…
