Lindsay Ruhter; Thai Williams; Meagan Karvonen; Sarah Koebley; Shawnee Wakeman; David Pugalee – TEACHING Exceptional Children, 2025
Many teachers have a level of discomfort with planning inquiry-based science lessons for students with complex needs. Science instruction typically includes teaching discrete skills with a focus on vocabulary acquisition (Knight et al., 2020). Because science is universal and thus important for all learners, many states have adopted the Next…

Arun Richard Chandrasekaran – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The field of DNA nanotechnology has grown rapidly in the past decade and has expanded to multiple laboratories. While lectures in DNA nanotechnology have been introduced in some institutions, laboratory components at the undergraduate level are still lacking. Undergraduate students predominantly learn about DNA nanotechnology through their…

Mageswary Karpudewan; Noor Haslina Daman Huri – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Transforming the chemistry curriculum to an interdisciplinary perspective is essential for preparing students to meet interdisciplinary career demands and to brace themselves for the challenges of complex environmental and health issues. The study introduces four interdisciplinary electrochemistry STEM-lab activities as an alternative to the…

Mason, Helen – Primary Science, 2022
The SunSpaceArt (SSA) project, led by the author, a solar scientist at the University of Cambridge, comprises a diverse team of scientists and visual artists who run STEAM (STEM + Arts) workshops in schools, space camps and at other venues (museums, science centres and so on). The project focuses mainly on 7- to 12-year-olds, which is a key age…

Mark H. Newton – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2023
A perennial goal of science educators is to develop functional scientific literacy in their students, especially those who will not become professional scientists. This article provides an example of implementing a socioscientific issues approach in an undergraduate environmental science course that enables students to develop the knowledge,…

Emiliano Foresto; Fiorela Nievas; Walter Giordano; Pablo Bogino – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
The curriculum for undergraduate Agricultural Engineering does not usually include much laboratory practice. In order to address this, here we propose the design of a practical class on legume-rhizobia symbiosis, using an interdisciplinary approach that takes elements from botany, agriculture, and microbiology. The students perform an assay to…

Mei Zhang; Wangmin Hu; Wenjing Liu; Chang Lei; Jun Guo; Hongcai Shang; Junling Hou – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Interdisciplinary experiments within chemistry are very important for the improvements in the overall quality of the education received by students. In this work, we describe an interdisciplinary experiment that was successfully completed by undergraduate students. This training integrates multiple disciplines including natural product medicinal…

Yifei Chen; Longfei Cai; Jiaye Gong; Heyun Lai – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue was implemented as a laboratory experiment by the undergraduate students majoring in chemical education using graphene (GR)/TiO[subscript 2] as a catalyst. These chemistry preservice teachers synthesized a GR/TiO[subscript 2] composite and used it to degrade wastewater containing methylene blue under…

Den Auwer, Christophe; Bayle, Simon; Beccia, Maria Rosa; Bosio, Sandra; Creff, Gaëlle; Jeanson, Aurélie; Michel, Hervé; Pitiot, Christophe; Zurita, Cyril – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
As part of their third-year general chemistry program, students at the University of the Côte d'Azur are taught the basics of radioactivity. The view that third-year university students have of the periodic Table of the Elements is often reduced because it ignores the vast majority of isotopes. As part of this program, a practicum devoted to the…

Clevinger, Candi; Lange, Alissa A.; Schock, Elizabeth – Science and Children, 2022
Children can see the Moon with the naked eye and often are curious about the Moon and other objects in the sky, like the Sun and the stars. However, there is sometimes disagreement in early childhood about whether studying space is appropriate for young children. This activities described in this article engaged children who had different learning…

There is a gap between the importance of certain archeological material sources and their perception, both by professionals and by the general public. Textiles, for example, are essential to understanding practices that marked daily life and rituals in the past, but they have often been extremely degraded over time, particularly in temperate…

Integrating Computational Data Science in University Curriculum for the New Generation of Scientists
Renu, N.; Sunil, K. – Higher Education for the Future, 2023
Integration of computational data science (CDS) into the university curriculum offers several advantages for students, faculty and the institution. This article discusses the benefits to students of introducing CDS into the university curriculum with a focus on developing skills in cheminformatics, data analysis, structure--activity relationships,…

Wesley A. Stroud – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2025
This paper highlights the design process and implementation for an "all majors" undergraduate course that allows students a chance to reconnect with the natural world. During this course students explore a wide range of biological and physical science based topics that seek to highlight human intervention and our impacts on the planet.…

Zapata, Fe´lix; Lo´pez-Ferna´ndez, Adria´n; Ortega-Ojeda, Fernando; Quintanilla, Gloria; Garci´a-Ruiz, Carmen; Montalvo, Gemma – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a vibrational spectroscopic technique useful in chemical, pharmaceutical, and forensic sciences. It is essential to identify chemicals for reasons spanning from scientific research and academic practices to quality control in companies. However, in some university degrees, graduate students do not get the proficiency…
