In one of the Faraday's experiments an electric current is induced in a conducting loop when a magnet in front of it moves towards or away from the loop. While the direction of circulation of the electric current in the loop has only two options, it depends on three experimental conditions that generate eight cases. Even though the Faraday law or…

Chen, Audrey; Tarapore, Eric; To, Allisen G.; Catolico, Davis M.; Nguyen, Kelly C.; Coleman, Melissa J.; Spence, Rory D. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Widely used in research laboratories, immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a transferable skill that prepares undergraduate students for a variety of careers in the biomedical field. We have developed an inquiry-based learning IHC laboratory exercise, which introduces students to the theory, procedure, and data interpretation of antibody staining.…

Horikoshi, Ryo; Shirotani, Dai; Shioyama, Hiroshi – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Buckminsterfullerene (C[subscript 60]), along with diamond and graphite, appears in many chemistry textbooks as an example of an allotrope of carbon. This communication describes a hands-on activity to explore the characteristic structure of C[subscript 60] through the construction of a structural model using transistors and plastic tubes…

An undergraduate laboratory was developed as part of the Drugs for Neglected Diseases "initiative's" Open Synthesis Network. This activity aimed to develop new compounds efficacious against visceral leishmaniasis. Students successfully synthesized, purified, and characterized ten different benzoxazole amides that were sent for biological…

Kaps, A.; Stallmach, F. – Physics Teacher, 2022
In physics lessons at secondary school and experimental physics courses at universities, the magnetic field inside a current-carrying solenoid is considered quantitatively. The corresponding equations and theories are supported by measuring the magnetic flux density inside the solenoid with a Hall probe. It has already been shown that smartphones…

Larison, Karen D. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2022
Although students in college science courses typically learn laboratory techniques and practices, few are taught about the communicative interactions that occur within the larger scientific community. In this paper, I propose that to educate a scientifically literate public -- one that comprehends the centrality of argument in the production of…

Chudinov, Peter; Eltyshev, Vladimir; Barykin, Yuri – Physics Teacher, 2022
The study of the motion of a projectile, thrown at an angle to the horizon, is a wonderful classical problem. This issue has been the subject of great interest to investigators for centuries. Currently, the study of parabolic motion, in the absence of any drag force, is a common example in introductory physics courses. The theory of parabolic…

Oss, Stefano – Physics Education, 2022
We propose an experiment in which the sound of a drumroll is recorded and analysed according to a simple mechanical model in which the inelastic restitution coefficient of the collision between the stick and drum surface, as well as the ongoing kinematics of the drumstick, are considered. The agreement shows that this model is well suited for…

This paper describes the master course design process at the largest institution of higher education in Colorado, USA. The master course design process demonstrated principles of backwards design and employed a team-based approach to course development. The course map was the primary vehicle for communicating the design of the course during…

Chen, Yingfei; Ding, Wenyong; Xu, Yuefei; Li, Sheng; Zhang, Wenli – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Biochemistry, a complicated basic course in health sciences, plays a fundamental role in describing pathogenic mechanism of illness in molecular terms, and is required to be learned for all medical students. Due to various obstacles to biochemistry learning and teaching, there is a pressing issue of curriculum reform to arouse the student's…

Williams, Hollis – Physics Education, 2022
The notion of a boundary condition is typically considered to be somewhat advanced and not suitable to be introduced in high school level physics. In this article, we give a simple visual demonstration of the difference between Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions for a string which oscillates according to the one-dimensional wave equation.…

Kevin H. Hunter; Jon-Marc G. Rodriguez; Nicole M. Becker – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
We review the literature, from 2006 to 2020, focused on the teaching and learning of chemical bonding. The studies included in our review (48 studies set in 19 different countries overall) involved secondary and postsecondary students as well as K-12 teachers and university faculty. We synthesize these studies' findings to provide implications for…

The American Chemical Society advocates a shift from rule-based to risk-based safety education for chemistry graduates, emphasizing meaningful student engagement in the risk assessment process for laboratory work. To implement this paradigm shift, we introduced RAMP (Recognize Hazards, Assess Risk, Minimize Risk, and Prevent Emergencies)-based…
