Saeed Salimpour; Michael Fitzgerald; Robert Hollow – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Over the years, there have been various calls to increase and better represent astronomy in curricula. This is motivated by views within the astronomy and astronomy education communities that the awe, wonder, and interdisciplinary nature of astronomy has the potential to engage students in STEM across disciplines. Reviews of curricula have shown…

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic prevented students from attending on-site classes. Consequently, their face-to-face interactions decreased. Thus, it became crucial to design learning activities to enhance the motivation of students and inspire them to achieve the desired learning outcomes during the long disruption of on-site classes. Mobile…

Andreas Haraldsrud; Tor Ole B. Odden – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Sensemaking is an important way of learning and engaging in science. Research has shown that sensemaking activities, such as questioning, hypothesizing, and model building, are pivotal in developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills in science education. This paper investigates the role of computational simulations in facilitating…

Field M. Watts; Solaire A. Finkenstaedt-Quinn; Ginger V. Shultz – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
Research on student learning in organic chemistry indicates that students tend to focus on surface level features of molecules with less consideration of implicit properties when engaging in mechanistic reasoning. Writing-to-learn (WTL) is one approach for supporting students' mechanistic reasoning. A variation of WTL incorporates peer review and…

This study introduces a modernized approach to classical volumetric titrations for the undergraduate chemistry curriculum. Leveraging smartphones and digital top-loading balances, we performed mass-based titrations and determined end points using digital color measurements. Our aim was to make classical wet chemistry more accessible and engaging…

Jennifer Newell-Caito; Edward Bernard – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Pedagogical research over the past decade has shown that chemistry courses have high failure rates and low accessibility. The implementation of novel active-learning approaches has great potential to offset these trends. Fundamental concepts that serve as "pinch points" are ripe targets for designing innovative, gamified course materials…

Lukowich, Ed – European Journal of Physics Education, 2019
Trillion Theory (TT), a new theory, estimates the cosmic origin at one trillion years. This calculation of thousands of eons is based upon a growth factor where solar systems age-out at a max of 15 billion years, only to recycle into even larger solar systems, inside of ancient galaxies that are as old as 200 billion to 900 billion years. TT is a…

McEvoy, James P. – School Science Review, 2019
Many proteins use transition metals, exploiting their properties to achieve particular metabolic effects. Some of these functions are well known, such as the use of iron and copper in oxygen redox chemistry, molybdenum in nitrogen reduction and zinc in the nucleophilic activation of water. I review these examples alongside some lesser-known…
