As biologists accumulate or encounter increasingly large and complex data sets, our field creates the need for students to develop skills in data exploration and visualization. Many biology courses lack the time for students to develop the skills needed to parse complex datasets and visualize them appropriately. We developed a new upper-level…

Rea, Stephen C. – Information and Learning Sciences, 2022
Purpose: This paper aims to offer practical guidance on teaching about digital extremism -- defined here as the intersection of digital disinformation campaigns with political extremism -- by highlighting four pedagogical challenges: the danger of unintentionally "redpilling" students; the slippery slope to false equivalency and…

Beck, Jori S.; Morgan, Joseph John; Brown, Nancy; Whitesides, Heather; Riddle, Derek R. – Educational Forum, 2020
The current study explored preservice and inservice teachers' perspectives on data literacy for teaching. Semi-structured interviews were employed with 12 teacher candidates in elementary and special education. The findings revealed participants' misconceptions regarding formative and summative data; their understanding of the value of formative…

Bretz, Stacey Lowery; McClary, LaKeisha – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
Most organic chemistry reactions occur by a mechanism that includes acid-base chemistry, so it is important that students develop and learn to use correct conceptions of acids and acid strength. Recent studies have described undergraduate organic chemistry students' cognitive resources related to the Brønsted-Lowry acid model and the Lewis acid…

Casleton, Emily; Beyler, Amy; Genschel, Ulrike; Wilson, Alyson – Journal of Statistics Education, 2014
Undergraduate students who have just completed an introductory statistics course often lack deep understanding of variability and enthusiasm for the field of statistics. This paper argues that by introducing the commonly underemphasized concept of measurement error, students will have a better chance of attaining both. We further present lecture…

Duis, Jennifer M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2011
An exploratory study was conducted with 23 organic chemistry educators to discover what general chemistry concepts they typically review, the concepts they believe are fundamental to introductory organic chemistry, the topics students find most difficult in the subject, and the misconceptions they observe in undergraduate organic chemistry…

Seventy-nine studies in geoscience conceptions appeared in peer-reviewed publications in English from 1982 through July 2009. Summaries of the 79 studies suggest certain recurring themes across subject areas: issues with terms, scale (temporal and spatial), role of prior experience, and incorrect application of everyday knowledge to geoscience…
