Johann, Leonie; Groß, Jorge; Messig, Denis; Rusk, Fredrik – Education Sciences, 2020
By means of their pivotal role in the outbreak of a variety of diseases, such as, recently, COVID-19, the molecular aspects of cell membrane function have gained considerable attention from researchers in recent decades. The resulting information explosion and the growing interdisciplinary character of cell biology seems, however, to not be…

Anwer, Sumayya; Ades, A. E.; Dias, Sofia – Research Synthesis Methods, 2020
Background: When there are structural relationships between outcomes reported in different trials, separate analyses of each outcome do not provide a single coherent analysis, which is required for decision-making. For example, trials of intrapartum anti-bacterial prophylaxis (IAP) to prevent early onset group B streptococcal (EOGBS) disease can…

Fung, Wing Tung; Wu, Joseph T.; Chan, Wai Man Mandy; Chan, Henry H.; Pang, Herbert – Research Synthesis Methods, 2020
Pathway-based differential expression analysis allows the incorporation of biological domain knowledge into transcriptomics analysis to enhance our understanding of disease mechanisms. To integrate information among multiple studies at the pathway level, pathway-based meta-analysis can be performed. Paired or partially paired samples are common in…

Ivan Mijakovic; Shadi Rahimi – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2024
To evaluate the impact of active learning approaches in a basic molecular and cell biology course for undergraduate students, we assessed the effect of learning by teaching and peer review on the learning outcomes. A literature seminar activity with peer review and feedback was organized as a compulsory activity for all students, covering about…

Sarah Meilani Fadillah; Minsu Ha – Asia-Pacific Science Education, 2024
This study investigated the potential of rubrics to enhance science learning outcomes and the accuracy of peer and self-assessments. We randomly divided 230 upper-secondary students from nine classrooms in public schools into two groups: rubric and non-rubric groups. The research concentrated on five open-ended items pertaining to cell biology and…

Bátor, Judit; Szeberényi, József – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Problem solving, multiple-choice question-based educational tools have been used for decades in molecular cell biology courses at the University of Pécs Medical School, Pécs, Hungary. A set of these tests was published in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education between 2002 and 2015. Such tests using an experimental approach help students to…

Juanengsih, Nengsih; Rahmat, Adi; Wulan, Ana Ratna; Rahman, Taufik – Cypriot Journal of Educational Sciences, 2021
This study aims to analyse students' extraneous cognitive load (ECL) in cell biology lectures. Participants in the study were 31 students of the Biology Education Department who attended the Cell Biology course from a university in Jakarta, Indonesia. The Cell Biology lectures include fours topics. The data of ECL were measured using…

Brandon, Christopher I., Jr.; George, Bagie M. – Proceedings of the Interdisciplinary STEM Teaching and Learning Conference, 2017
It has been widely established that, in addition to its role in reproduction, progesterone (P4) also has potent anti-inflammatory effects. While the precise mechanisms have never been clearly elucidated in RAW 246.7 cells, it seems logical to assume that this response is -- at least in part -- a consequence of activation of and signaling through…

Kim, Youngshin; Lee, Yun-hye; Lee, Hyonyong; Lim, Soo-min – Journal of Biological Education, 2023
This study examined a network of concepts used in the curriculum, textbooks, instruction, and assessment in relation to somatic cell division and investigated the alignment of science concepts used in them. Textbooks and teachers' instruction and evaluation questions were collected to analyse the alignment between the concepts and the conceptual…

A set of core concepts ("big ideas") integral to the discipline of physiology are important for students to understand and demonstrate their capacity to apply. We found poor alignment of learning outcomes in programs with physiology majors (or equivalent) from 17 Australian universities and the 15 core concepts developed by a team in the…

Hernandez Cardenas, Lizette Susana; Castano, Leticia; Cruz Guzman, Cristina; Nigenda Alvarez, Juan Pablo – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
This study's innovative objective was to develop a personalised learning model to equate students' entry level knowledge as they entered the School of Medicine and Health Sciences at Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico in 2019. This was necessitated by a difference in the depth and approach to preparatory content. The methodology focused on…

Salinas, Dino G.; Gallardo, Mauricio O. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Biological systems exhibit strong dynamic variations; for example, a system may have a tendency towards either a steady state, periodic behaviour or chaotic oscillations. These findings, explained by dynamic systems theory, have allowed researchers to formally relate a wide variety of systems, such as the theory of rumour propagation, glucose…

Michael, Joel; Modell, Harold – Advances in Physiology Education, 2019
We have created and validated a conceptual framework for the core physiology concept of "cell membrane." The conceptual framework is composed of 27 items arranged in a hierarchy that is, in some instances, four levels deep. We have validated it with input from faculty who teach at a wide variety of institutional types. All items making…

Nagel, Thomas; Mentzer, Casey; Kivistik, P. Mike – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
This experiment provides students with a thorough understanding of electrolysis and the parameters that most greatly impact optimization of this process. In this laboratory exercise, students will focus on the anodization of bismuth metal to develop thin oxide films. When designing an electrolytic cell devoted to anodization, there are several…

Julio G. Soto; Rachael French; Sulekha Anand – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2024
We developed an advanced, year-long course sequence in eukaryotic cell and molecular biology in order to increase conceptual understanding. Three years of historical data from a one semester, traditional-lecture, senior cell and molecular biology course (n = 237) were compared with 3 years of data collected from the year-long course sequence (n =…
