Farrior, Donna; Hamill, William; Keiser, Leslie; Kessler, Michael; LoPresti, Peter; McCoy, Jerry; Pomeranz, Shirley Barbara; Potter, William; Tapp, Bryan – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2007
We report on a two-year NSF-funded project to strengthen connections among science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. One component of this project was to produce some initial data on the effectiveness of Interdisciplinary Lively Applications Projects (ILAPs) in teaching science and engineering undergraduates. ILAPs are…

Jackson, Marilyn T. – New Directions for Higher Education, 2007
The Atlanta University Center (AUC) comprises five historically black colleges and a centralized library. All are separate institutions, each having its own board of directors, president, infrastructure, students, faculty, staff, and traditions. To encourage coordination of effort and resources, the AUC was formed and the first formal cooperative…

Thompson, Mary Kathryn; Consi, Thomas R. – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2007
Freshmen Pre-Orientation Programs (FPOPs) can be powerful outreach tools for incoming college students and provide an exciting introduction to the field of engineering. The benefits reach not only the first year students, but also the upperclassmen who help to run the programs and the departments that sponsor them. A family of three engineering…

Palmer, Ray Alonzo – 1966
Studied were selected aspects of the learning process related to biological concepts and the processes leading to their acquisition. Data were obtained using a series of structured interviews based on jury-graded check lists. The population consisted of 36 randomly-selected students from three randomly-selected classes using Green Version BSCS…

Berger, Carl F. – 1974
This study was an attempt to use a model or a theoretical construct and to find if that model related to an underlying construct teachers might have as they view science teaching decisions. Nine scenes from the Science Curriculum Improvement Study (SCIS) film, "Don't Tell Me, I'll Find Out," were selected. Statements reflecting three…

Australian Science Education Project, Toorak, Victoria. – 1972
Most of the activities suggested in this trial version of the Genetics unit produced by the Australian Science Education Project rely on second-hand data, although one of the introductory activities suggested is based on results of a mouse breeding experiment. The unit is, therefore, expected to be suitable only for students who are capable of…
