Direct linkRiggi, Margot; Iwasa, Janet H. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
In collaboration with educators and researchers, we created an online resource called Phase Separation 101 to help undergraduate students understand the basics of liquid-liquid phase separation, an emerging and complex concept in cell biology for which visual resources are still scarce. This work presents the workflow and visual communication…

Pinger, Cody W.; Geiger, Morgan K.; Spence, Dana M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Wide accessibility and a broad range of applications have made 3D-printers a commonplace tool in the science community. From tier-one research institutions to community public libraries and high schools, 3D-printers are being used to enrich STEM education through a variety of learning techniques and experiences. Reports of 3D-printed models for…

John Kelly; Nicolette S. Richardson; Diane E. Gregory; Megan Murtagh; David M. Andrews – International Journal of Kinesiology in Higher Education, 2024
Human anatomy is a key subject area within undergraduate kinesiology programs. However, literature detailing the course structures, available resources, and teaching approaches used to deliver anatomy education in kinesiology programs is lacking. The present study sought to address this deficit by surveying instructors in Canadian university and…

Felicity McLure; Mihye Won; David F. Treagust – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Developing students' creativity is an important educational goal in many countries. The Australian Curriculum Authority has mandated that all teachers teach creative thinking across all subjects and grades. However, after more than 10 years working within this mandate, how do science teachers see their role in promoting creativity in the…

Christie Morrison Thomas; Charles W. Anderson – Science Education, 2025
This study focuses on how two school districts managed and changed the "instructional core"--student learning goals, instructional resources and strategies, and assessments--in their required high school biology course as they responded to new state science standards based on the "Next Generation Science Standards" (NGSS).…

Angelica Acevedo Guanzon – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study thoroughly explores the relationships between the challenges faced by students and the alternative problem-solving strategies employed. By analyzing these connections, the research aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of how students address difficulties in science learning and the adaptive strategies they apply. Through this…

Kristen L. W. Walton – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
Views of obesity as a consequence of "lack of willpower" or other behavioral choices, rather than a complex array of biological and other factors, are quite common among undergraduate students. Many undergraduates in prenursing or biology programs have little exposure to the physiology and pathophysiology of obesity, including learning…

Rita Birzina; Daiga Kalnina; Sandra Kalnina – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2025
The competence-based approach has raised important questions in education regarding the content of learning, the way teachers teach and students learn, and the assessment of learning. General education in Latvia has been reformed, and the content of competence-based education was introduced in 2023. In STEM curricula, the content is developed in…

James Booker; Charlotte Woodward; Charles Taylor; Alistair Robson; Scott Border – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Online anatomical resources are rising in popularity since the COVID-19 pandemic, but the pedagogical principles and effectiveness of their use remain unclear. This article aims to demonstrate evidence-informed ways in which fellow educators can create engaging online learning resources in clinical neuroanatomy and compare the effectiveness of…

Christie Morrison Thomas – ProQuest LLC, 2022
This qualitative study compares four public school districts in a state to investigate how "Next Generation Science Standards"-aligned, three-dimensional science classroom teaching and learning in biology classrooms could become normal, instead of exceptional. Interview data were collected through two rounds of interviews -- one year…

Paary Balakumar; Heather Fice; Samuel Richer; Tamara L. Western; Jacqueline Yao – International Journal for Students as Partners, 2024
Introductory science courses can be a struggle for instructors and students not only because of the challenging nature of the material, but also due to differences in the background knowledge of students. Provision of pre-lecture resources reviewing or introducing key concepts is recommended to support diverse students. In this paper, we describe…
