Biology education researchers seek to improve biology education, particularly at the introductory level, yet there is little documentation about what is actually happening in introductory biology. To characterize the landscape of learning expectations for introductory biology, we analyzed course-level learning objectives (n = 1108) and course…

Barron J. Montgomery; Argenta M. Price; Carl E. Wieman – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
A major goal of physics education is to develop strong problem-solving skills for students. To become expert problem solvers, students must have opportunities to deliberately practice those skills. In this work, we adopt a previously described definition of problem solving that consists of a set of 29 decisions made by expert scientists. We…

Ekaterina Yurasovskaya – PRIMUS, 2024
We describe a lecture-free problem-solving Mathematical Communication and Reasoning (MCR) course that helps students succeed in the Introduction to Advanced Mathematics course. The MCR course integrates elements from Uri Treisman's Emerging Scholars workshop model and Math Circles. In it students solve challenging problems and form a supportive…

Online learning has developed rapidly and billions of learners have participated in various courses. However, the high dropout rate is universal and learning performance is not satisfactory. Fortunately, learners have posted a large number of reviews which express their feedback opinions. The fine-grained aspects and opinions existing in reviews…

Larisa Castillo – British Journal of Educational Studies, 2025
This essay argues that embodied pedagogies of emergence are fundamental to facilitating student wellbeing in the classroom. It shows that such classroom approaches require an incorporation of contemplative pedagogies to be truly attuned to presence; likewise contemplative pedagogies require an emergent approach -- particularly the recasting of…

As community colleges and systems move away from developmental education and encourage students to enroll in introductory, college-level coursework to complete their math and English requirements, it is critical to provide students with additional academic supports to help them succeed. One such model is the corequisite course, a model that offers…

Interdisciplinary environmental and sustainability (IES) programs are different from other fields because they focus on a complex integration of humanities, social, and natural sciences concepts centered on the interactions of coupled human and natural systems. The interdisciplinary nature of IES programs does not lend itself to traditional…

Graham F. Hunter – Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, 2024
Utilizing interviews with 44 full-time HESA faculty members, this study explores how they describe planning for individual courses. Findings suggest a model of course planning in which faculty members enter the process with particular beliefs and then make decisions as they consider existing syllabi, course objectives, course content, and student…

Basu, Urmimala – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
A curriculum description of a general introductory biology course titled "Introduction to Research Methods" is presented here. The course aims to provide a glimpse of biomedical research to students who have had no or limited exposure to research to encourage them to do research as freshmen. Thus, this course aims to better equip and…

As universities seek to innovate to meet the needs of students, compressed courses are becoming more prevalent. This study compares a compressed-format course to a traditional format course in economics that were each taught in the summer. Results indicate that student performance in a compressed course differs in meaningful ways. Effort-based…
