Direct linkSingh, Chandralekha; Haileselassie, Daniel – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2010
Science teaching and learning can be made both engaging and student-centered using pedagogical, computer-based learning tools. We have developed self-paced interactive problem-solving tutorials for introductory physics. These tutorials can provide guidance and support for a variety of problem-solving techniques, as well as opportunities for…

Stover, Shawn; Mabry, Michelle – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2005
The effectiveness of an issues-based approach to nonmajors biology was investigated. The integration of online critical-thinking exercises and in-class discussions of science-related issues did not improve exam scores. However, students did indicate that the discussions enhanced their appreciation of science and stimulated them to think more…

Yuretich, Richard F. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2003
Active learning promotes higher-level reasoning, and it can be achieved in large classes without wholesale changes in class format. Applicable methods include in-class mini-investigations, robust multiple-choice exam questions, online quizzes or review, and cooperative learning, particularly during exams. Data gleaned from observing student…

Case, Eddie; Stevens, Ron; Cooper, Melanie – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2007
While problem solving is a generally accepted goal of most science courses, it has previously been difficult to determine the extent to which students' problem-solving abilities are impacted by these courses. Interactive Multi-Media Exercises (IMMEX) is a web-based software package that can deliver multiple cases of case-based problems and keep…
