Jui-Chou Cheng – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
Interest affects learning; it also affects students' attitude towards science and career choices. It is therefore urgent to increase students' interest and improve their attitude towards science to face the complex challenges of the future. This study transformed cutting-edge induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) research into an informal science…

Williams; Zachary Conley; Hinton Antentor Jr. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
Physiology is an important field for students to gain a better understanding of biological mechanisms. Yet, many students often find it difficult to learn from lectures, resulting in poor retention. Here, we utilize a learning workshop model to teach students at different levels ranging from middle school to undergraduate. We specifically designed…

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…

Kok, Karol; Boczianowski, Franz – Physics Teacher, 2021
Science labs should promote reasoning that resembles the work that scientists do. However, this is often not the case. We present a lab in which students strive to find out which of two models best describes a physics experiment. The quantification of measurement uncertainties--another topic that is often neglected in high school…

Mondaca, Elias; Wright, Keenan; Chavarria, Nicole; Fahrenkrug, Eli – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Lab-on-a-chip devices are a critical and emerging chemical technology. New pedagogical tactics that effectively capture both analytical chemistry concepts along with the design elements unique to these devices are necessary for effective integration in the undergraduate chemistry curriculum. This article develops a design-based learning laboratory…

Look along the shelves holding your laboratory apparatus and into the demo-prep room, and you will find apparatus by "Cenco" and "The Central Scientific Company" sharing space with your new PASCO equipment. At the 1989 AAPT meeting in San Luis Obispo I was asked to talk about Cenco in honor of one of its long-term employers and…

Nyutu, Eva N.; Cobern, William W.; Pleasants, Brandy A.-S. – Research in Science Education, 2022
Science instructors assume that they have created their laboratory curriculum in such a way as to reflect an ideal science instructional laboratory, but students may not recognize this. A recent study used the Student Perceptions of the College Instructional Laboratory Survey (SPCILS) to examine students' perceptions of their science instructional…
