For years, hybridization in chemistry has been taught using static pictures and model kits. We decided to reimagine how students learn hybridization through the development of a mobile learning tool. The tool contains gamification features, such as achievements and progressive leveling that keep students engaged, while the mobile platform allows…

Our study evaluates students' approaches to and perceptions of the use of hands-on at-home laboratory kits (HALK) experiments, open-source computer-based simulations (OSCBS), and their combination (OSCBS-HALK) in undergraduate introductory asynchronous online physics courses. Anonymous survey data from students who had completed online physics…

Ambruso, Kelly; Riley, Kathryn R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
In this communication, we describe five at-home laboratory experiments and demonstrations that complement a semester-long analytical chemistry curriculum. The experiments were successfully carried out by remote undergraduate students enrolled in a hybrid analytical chemistry course during the COVID-19 pandemic. Students used their personal…

Attardi, Stefanie M.; Mintz, Noah M.; Rogers, Kem A. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
Online teachers are an under-researched population, but their perspectives are crucial to the successful implementation of online education. A fully online section of an established face-to-face (F2F) two-semester undergraduate anatomy course with a prosection laboratory commenced in 2012 at The University of Western Ontario, Canada. Professors'…

Abdulahad, Asem I.; Privett, Janet A.; Adams, Michael R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
For many years, Xavier University of Louisiana (Xavier) has been a leader in educating underrepresented minority students who successfully transition into postgraduate degree programs in STEM and eventually into STEM-based careers in research, healthcare, and beyond. Striving to meet the needs of women and minority students who continue to be…

Brohus, Malene; Duun Rohde, Palle; Echers, Simon Gregersen; Westphal, Klaus Ringsborg; Ern, Rasmus; Jensen, Helene Halkjaer – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2022
Digital tools and platforms offer new solutions to design and conduct university teaching. This case illustrates how such digital solutions may be utilized in problem-based learning programmes within life science educations. Specifically, the case evaluated the use of live-streamed and recorded lectures, the incorporation of digital formative…

Instructor Talk--noncontent and nonlogistical language that is focused on shaping the classroom learning environment--is a recently defined variable that may play an important role in how undergraduates experience courses. Previous research characterized Instructor Talk used by faculty teaching in biology lecture classrooms. However, graduate…

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…

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…
