Anna Bertram; Charlotte A. Clark; Kyle W. Galloway; Oscar Siles Bru¨gge; Andrew Nortcliffe – Journal of Chemical Education, 2025
We present the development and evaluation of "da Vinci's Curse", a chemistry escape room experience designed to consolidate laboratory skills in a fun and interactive setting. Inspired by the maestro, Leonardo da Vinci, the escape room challenges students to complete a series of puzzles in teams to escape "da Vinci's Curse".…

Wollman, Warren – School Science and Mathematics, 1983
The pendulum and balance beam were studied. The principal question addressed was whether students could substantially and quickly benefit from a teaching strategy explicitly designed to promote transfer. About half the subjects could acquire in brief time a procedure for transferring knowledge to novel tasks. (MP)

Magner, Denise K. – Chronicle of Higher Education, 1996
Despite rising enrollments, college biology education has until recently lagged behind other science disciplines in reforming undergraduate instruction. However, new approaches are emerging, including introductory classes that focus more on concepts, laboratory assignments that are increasingly sophisticated, and more in-depth curricula for…
