Offering an advanced organic chemistry course at a primarily undergraduate institution poses a challenge of condensing graduate organic synthesis into one course. This course was designed so students choose and read recent total synthesis papers from the literature in lieu of relying on a textbook or other pre-existing course materials. Following…

Kayla Vieno-Corbett; Nicole Campbell; Angela Pecyna; Kem A. Rogers – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
Gross anatomy is often taught and assessed based on a "standard" view of the human body, limiting students' exposure to normal variation, creating a potential curricular gap in the training of future anatomists and health care professionals. This scoping review explores learning objectives and teaching approaches associated with…

Teaching through experiments has always been an indispensable teaching method in chemistry and other STEM disciplines. Letting more students have access to experiments at the frontier of scientific research is essential to stimulating students' interest in chemistry. With the advancement of computer technology, virtual simulation experiments…

Fieldwork is a meaningful and authentic learning experience that is rarely included in undergraduate chemistry courses. In this laboratory, we visited a hot spot of perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) contamination identified in 2012, in Binbrook, Ontario, Canada, a 1 h drive from the University of Toronto. The persistence and unique environmental…

With the purpose of bridging research and practice, faculty members teaching laboratory courses in pharmaceutical sciences at a research university in Denmark were interviewed about their perspectives on learning outcomes of laboratory work. Findings from a recent systematic review of learning outcomes associated with laboratory work at the…

The high Arctic is a remote place, where geoscientific research and teaching require expensive and logistically demanding expeditions to make use of the short field seasons. The absence of vegetation facilitates the use of modern photogrammetric techniques for the cost-effective generation of high-resolution digital outcrop models (DOMs). These…

Nicola Orsini; Robert Thiesmeier; Karin Båge – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2024
Simulation-based teaching can be a valuable method for learning statistical concepts. Its practical implementation for health-related subjects is seldomly evaluated. We propose a simulation-based approach to teach interaction effects in a postgraduate biostatistics course. We describe the steps involved in organizing and implementing a…

Jarabak, Charlotte; Mutton, Troy; Ridley, Damon D. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Properties of chemical substances drive a large portion of research in the sciences, but properties are very difficult to search in full text documents, and while searches in chemical information retrieval resources may help, the effective use of such resources may require considerable knowledge of the indexing and excerption policies in the…

Faraj, Santiago Enrique; Rossi, Rolando Carlos; Montes, Mónica Raquel – Journal of Biological Education, 2021
This report describes the implementation of a laboratory exercise for an advanced biochemistry or enzyme kinetics class at the undergraduate or graduate level, designed to improve understanding of protein conformational changes associated with the binding of a ligand. Students measure the fluorescence changes induced by the conformational…

Pfister, Hans – Physics Teacher, 2021
The Ball Bearing High Voltage generator is a fairly simple and transparent apparatus that can serve as a tool to motivate conceptual descriptions and calculations in electrostatics that are normally presented to our students in a rather dry and matter-of-fact fashion. For example, instead of posing a problem in the typical textbook form of…

Piechota, Eric J.; Meyer, Gerald J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
A central theme in introductory and advanced chemical education courses pertains directly to the transfer of electrons between atoms, ions, or molecules. This article presents theoretical treatments of electron transfer with specific attention toward applying these principles to experiment. The goal is to revitalize teaching electron transfer at…

A Microsoft Excel workbook has been developed to simplify the quantitative analysis of experimentally measured titration curves for diprotic and triprotic amino acids such as glycine, arginine, histidine, and glutamate. Students perform the titration, enter the data into the worksheet, and manually adjust the resulting pK[subscript a] values to…

Taking on an agentic perspective, this study employed a digital ethnographic approach to examine a science teacher's emotional experiences in an online graduate science education course during the COVID-19 pandemic. Veronika, the teacher, revealed her feelings of grievance and loss to the graduate course cohort at the advent of large-scale school…

Jacob S. Hirschi; Dayana Bashirova; Tim J. Zuehlsdorff – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Density functional theory (DFT) is indubitably the most popular and among the most successful approaches for approximately solving the many-electron Schro¨dinger equation. The level of understanding on the part of both researchers and students using DFT, however, is lacking, given the availability of black-box software. The present work addresses…

Michael E. Robbins; Gabriel J. DiQuattro; Eric W. Burkholder – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection in Investigating and Improving Quantum Education through Research.] One of the greatest weaknesses of physics education research is the paucity of research on graduate education. While there are a growing number of investigations of graduate student degree progress and admissions, there are very few…
