Enzymes are organic molecules known for their catalytic nature because they accelerate metabolic reactions in organisms. The study of enzyme functions and modes of action is essential to understand Biochemistry. This study aimed to analyse the acetylcholinesterase enzymatic activity, as well as the enzymatic inhibition mechanism in practical…

Hole, Torstein Nielsen; Velle, Gaute; Helleve, Ingrid; Ulvik, Marit; Saetre, Jon Helge; Brøske, Brit Ågot; Raaheim, Arild – Education Inquiry, 2022
Recent development in policy and learning theory encourages higher education institutions to send their students out of campus and into work placements. In this paper, we report on students' engagement with various aspects of knowing through practice in work placements. We employed focus group discussions to gather students' accounts of their…

Pick, Shellie – Childhood Education, 2021
In a webinar series called the Wild Side of STEAM, educators at the Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute introduce young viewers to these lesser-known or unusual careers. The free webinar series, launched in October 2020, informs viewers about the variety of careers available in science, technology, engineering, arts, and…

Farenga, Stephen J.; Niess, Daniel; Hutchinson, Michael – American Biology Teacher, 2015
Learning about stem cells within the context of treating pet illness or injury is an additional way for teachers to discuss the integration of science, technology, and veterinary medicine. We explain how practitioners in veterinary medicine harvest animal stem cells from adipose (fat) tissue in treating pet illness or injury. Further, we narrate…

Milanick, Mark; Graham, Kerri; Wessel, Melissa – American Biology Teacher, 2013
Students are provided with a mystery concerning dogs that are paralyzed. This motivates a laboratory exercise to measure parameters from the dog's "blood" to determine whether the paralysis is due to pesticide poisoning or an autoimmune attack on nerve myelin. Most of the materials are available from the grocery store. The real-world nature of the…

The shortfall of young people, particularly women, in the field of Science, Mathematics and Engineering (SME) has been shown in many national studies. Schreiner and Sjoberg (2007) indicated that boys outnumber girls in physics and engineering studies, while the gender balance is shifted towards the girls in studies including medicine, veterinary…
