Direct linkMeagan Sundstrom; L. N. Simpfendoerfer; Annie Tan; Ashley B. Heim; N. G. Holmes – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Previous work has identified that recognition from others is an important predictor of students' participation, persistence, and career intentions in physics. However, research has also found a gender bias in peer recognition in which student nominations of strong peers in their physics course disproportionately favor men over women. In this…

Anderson, Laurel J.; Dosch, Jerald J.; Lindquist, Erin S.; McCay, Timothy S.; Machado, Jose-Luis; Kuers, Karen; Gartner, Tracy B.; Shea, Kathleen L.; Mankiewicz, Carol; Rodgers, Vikki L.; Saunders, Patricia A.; Urban, Rebecca A.; Kilgore, Jason S.; Powell, Amanda S.; Ramage, Benjamin S.; Steinweg, J. Megan; Straub, Jacob N.; Bunnell, Sarah L.; Witkovsky-Eldred, Marissa – Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, 2020
Multisite, course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) in the Ecological Research as Education Network (EREN) were assessed for impacts on student learning of collaborative science skills using a survey that could serve as a starting point for a validated assessment instrument for multisite CUREs. Pretests/posttests were administered…

Konkankit, Chilaluck C.; Marker, Sierra C.; Bigham, Nicholas P.; Dale, Darren S.; Zax, David B.; Lorey, Daniel R., II; Wilson, Justin J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
There currently exists a significant deficiency in the nuclear chemistry workforce within the United States, despite its importance in areas of medicine, national security, and energy. Poor coverage of this topic across many chemistry departments at the undergraduate level likely contributes to this shortage. Increasing interest and hands-on…

Tao, Dan – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Recent reforms in science education call for efforts to engage students in authentic and sustained science practices. In order to engage students in authentic science practices, students need to enact epistemic agency over the processes of inquiry in line with how knowledge is constructed and practiced in the real world. A critical research…

Alcantara-Garcia, Jocelyn; Ploeger, Rebecca – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
Polymers are present in most organic materials in the field of cultural heritage science and art conservation. This makes the study of polymer chemistry necessary in art conservation graduate training programs. Given each program approaches this important topic in different ways, the present paper describes areas of common ground and problems we,…

Rufo, David – Art Education, 2016
For many schools, the science fair is a long-held tradition in which students are required to participate. For these children, and their families, this means 3 months of added stress to already rigorous academic demands. This article explores the methods in which students can take part in the science fair without having to sacrifice their creative…

Jung, Hun Bok; Zamora, Felix; Duzgoren-Aydin, Nurdan S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2017
Water quality is an important interdisciplinary environmental topic for project-based learning. An undergraduate summer research internship program at a public minority serving institution engaged environmental science majors in community-based research experiences. The research focused on the field monitoring of water quality for surface water…

McHugh, Luisa; Kelly, Angela M.; Burghardt, M. David – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2018
Contemporary research has suggested that for students to compete globally, pedagogy must shift to emphasize the infusion of mathematics into science instruction to strengthen understanding. Innovative professional development programs are necessary to achieve this goal, particularly with respect to teaching graphing skills in the context of…

Sath, Hajra – Primary Science, 2018
Although science is a core subject, educators at Uphall Primary School have found in recent times pupils do not display the same enthusiasm for science as they do for other subjects. In order to raise the pupils' science capital and generate an eagerness among the pupils to experiment, learn and develop their curiosity about the world around them,…

Marrero, Meghan E.; Riccio, Jessica F.; Ben-Jacob, Marion; Canger, Anthony; Maliti, Charles – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2017
Broadening participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers requires that underrepresented students, including women and minorities, persist in their studies and complete undergraduate and graduate degrees. Studies have shown that engaging students in undergraduate research and improving students' science…

Ballen, Cissy J.; Wieman, Carl; Salehi, Shima; Searle, Jeremy B.; Zamudio, Kelly R. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2017
Efforts to retain underrepresented minority (URM) students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) have shown only limited success in higher education, due in part to a persistent achievement gap between students from historically underrepresented and well-represented backgrounds. To test the hypothesis that active learning…
