Peer reviewedHerrmann-Abell, Cari F.; Koppal, Mary; Roseman, Jo Ellen – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2016
Modern biology has become increasingly molecular in nature, requiring students to understand basic chemical concepts. Studies show, however, that many students fail to grasp ideas about atom rearrangement and conservation during chemical reactions or the application of these ideas to biological systems. To help provide students with a better…

Bodzin, Alec M.; Fu, Qiong; Kulo, Violet; Peffer, Tamara – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2014
A potential method for teaching geospatial thinking and reasoning (GTR) is through geospatially enabled learning technologies. We developed an energy resources geospatial curriculum that included learning activities with geographic information systems and virtual globes. This study investigated how 13 urban middle school teachers implemented and…
