Archila, Pablo Antonio; Gravier, Gissel; Levy, Laura; Ortiz, Brigithe Tatiana; Rodríguez, Alejandra; Wilches, Luciana; Truscott de Mejía, Anne-Marie; Restrepo, Silvia – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
The rise in university bilingual science courses is explained by a certain phenomenon, the internationalization of higher education. Bilingual Argument Mapping (BAM) -- the ability to construct argument maps using two languages -- is a key aspect of bilingual scientific literacy. An argument map is a visual representation of argument structure.…

Zhdanov, Arsenii; Pyay, Anna – Physics Teacher, 2022
Mobile phones are a widely used platform for educational apps, mobile health, and a variety of chemical tests. Here, we are working on a mobile phone-based physics lab (mPhysics) that uses a mobile phone's capabilities to run simple physics experiments and demonstrations. While a mobile phone can be used to analyze magnetic and optical properties…

Reassessing Undergraduate Polymer Chemistry Laboratory Experiments for Virtual Learning Environments
Metin Karayilan; Samantha M. McDonald; Alexander J. Bahnick; Kacey M. Godwin; Yin Mei Chan; Matthew L. Becker – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Chemistry laboratory experiments are invaluable to students' acquisition of necessary synthetic, analytical, and instrumental skills during their undergraduate studies. However, the COVID-19 pandemic rendered face-to-face (f2f), in-person teaching laboratory experiences impossible from late 2019-2020 and forced educators to rapidly develop new…

Wan, Tong; Doty, Constance M.; Geraets, Ashley A.; Saitta, Erin K. H.; Chini, Jacquelyn J. – International Journal of STEM Education, 2023
Background: In college science laboratory and discussion sections, student-centered active learning strategies have been implemented to improve student learning outcomes and experiences. Research has shown that active learning activities can increase student anxiety if students fear that they could be negatively evaluated by their peers. Error…

Zeng, Liang; Zeng, Guang – Physics Teacher, 2021
Researchers have reported the funds of knowledge (FK) pedagogical approach effective in engaging minority students in learning. However, there are a lack of studies connecting FK to introductory college physics or physical science classes. By using examples from regional Mexican-American lived experiences at an Hispanic-serving institution located…

Gopinath, B.; Santhi, R. – Higher Education for the Future, 2021
In this article, Fishbone-based advanced computational thinking (FACT) pedagogy is proposed by fusing fishbone pedagogy and computational thinking pedagogy for enhancing teaching-learning process while teaching engineering and science courses, for engineering and science students respectively. The proposed FACT pedagogy has been implemented using…

Booth, Christine S.; Song, Changsoo; Howell, Michelle E.; Rasquinha, Achilles; Saska, Aleš; Helikar, Resa; Sikich, Sharmin M.; Couch, Brian A.; van Dijk, Karin; Roston, Rebecca L.; Helikar, Tomáš – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2021
Understanding metabolic function requires knowledge of the dynamics, interdependence, and regulation of metabolic networks. However, multiple professional societies have recognized that most undergraduate biochemistry students acquire only a surface-level understanding of metabolism. We hypothesized that guiding students through interactive…
