With international exams (PISA and TIMSS) producing results every three or four years, there is near continual talk of East Asian dominance in mathematics education. Beyond the reporting of scores, some studies have compared mathematics teaching in these countries with U.S. instruction. However, researchers are not (usually) grade school math…

Teaching High School Chemistry in the Context of Pharmacology Helps Both Teachers and Students Learn
Schwartz-Bloom, Rochelle D.; Halpin, Myra J.; Reiter, Jerome P. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2011
Few studies demonstrate the impact of teaching chemistry embedded in a context that has relevance to high school students. We build upon our prior work showing that pharmacology topics (i.e., drugs), which are inherently interesting to high school students, provide a useful context for teaching chemistry and biology. In those studies, teachers…
