Direct linkGregg, Melissa K.; Samuel, Arthur G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Because the environment often includes multiple sounds that overlap in time, listeners must segregate a sound of interest (the auditory figure) from other co-occurring sounds (the unattended auditory ground). We conducted a series of experiments to clarify the principles governing the extraction of auditory figures. We distinguish between auditory…

Thomas, Alyssa C.; Boucher, Michelle A.; Pulliam, Curtis R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
Our Introduction to Research Methods course is a first-year majors course built around the idea of helping students learn to work like chemists, write like chemists, and think like chemists. We have developed this course as a hybrid hands-on/ lecture experience built around instrumentation use and report preparation. We take the product from one…

Download full textLogue, Alexandra W.; Watanabe-Rose, Mari – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014
This study used a randomized controlled trial to determine whether students, assessed by their community colleges as needing an elementary algebra (remedial) mathematics course, could instead succeed at least as well in a college-level, credit-bearing introductory statistics course with extra support (a weekly workshop). Researchers randomly…

Sarkar, Sayantani; Chatterjee, Subhasish; Medina, Nancy; Stark, Ruth E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2013
An eight-session interdisciplinary laboratory curriculum has been designed using a suite of analytical chemistry techniques to study biomaterials derived from an inexpensive source such as the tomato fruit. A logical
progression of research-inspired laboratory modules serves to "tour" the macroscopic characteristics of the fruit and the…

Hansen, Jochim; Trope, Yaacov – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2013
Time is experienced as passing more quickly the more changes happen in a situation. The present research tested the idea that time perception depends on the level of construal of the situation. Building on previous research showing that concrete rather than abstract mental construal causes people to perceive more variations in a given situation,…

Connor, Kenneth A. – Chronicle of Higher Education, 2012
When students complete a lab experiment at home or in a staffed lab on campus, they come to class better able to explain what they have done and why they think the approach is correct, and to provide explanations or questions about any problems they encountered. What is so cool is that the learning experience has all the key aspects of the…

Pfordresher, Peter Q.; Dalla Bella, Simone – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
It is well known that timing of rhythm production is disrupted by delayed auditory feedback (DAF), and that disruption varies with delay length. We tested the hypothesis that disruption depends on the state of the movement trajectory at the onset of DAF. Participants tapped isochronous rhythms at a rate specified by a metronome while hearing DAF…

El Shamy, Usama; Abdoun, Tarek; McMartin, Flora; Pando, Miguel A. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2013
We report the results of a pilot study aimed at developing, implementing, and assessing an educational module that integrates remote major research instrumentation into undergraduate classes. Specifically, this study employs Internet Web-based technologies to allow for real-time video monitoring and execution of cutting-edge experiments. The…

Burnham, Bryan R.; Neely, James H.; Naginsky, Yelena; Thomas, Matthew – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
After C. L. Folk, R. W. Remington, and J. C. Johnston (1992) proposed their contingent-orienting hypothesis, there has been an ongoing debate over whether purely stimulus-driven attentional capture can occur for visual events that are salient by virtue of a distinctive static property (as opposed to a dynamic property such as abrupt onset). The…

Kim, ShinWoo; Murphy, Gregory L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2011
Barsalou (1985) argued that exemplars that serve category goals become more typical category members. Although this claim has received support, we investigated (a) whether categories have a single ideal, as negatively valenced categories (e.g., cigarette) often have conflicting goals, and (b) whether ideal items are in fact typical, as they often…

Garrett, Teresa A.; Rose, Rebecca L.; Bell, Sidney M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2013
In this laboratory module, introductory biochemistry students are exposed to two-dimensional [superscript 1]H-nuclear magnetic resonance of glycerophospholipids (GPLs). Working in groups of three, students enzymatically synthesized and purified a variety of 2-acyl lyso GPLs. The structure of the 2-acyl lyso GPL was verified using [superscript…

Kelly, Martin G. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2013
The Index of Learning Styles (ILS) generates reliable data. Its ability to
characterize learning preference has been validated. However, the ILS
has had very limited application in biology education. In 2009, students in
an introductory biology laboratory completed the ILS. Overall academic
performance (2009) was negatively associated with…

Conover, Margaret – Science Scope, 2011
Chia seeds will sprout on almost any moist surface, and they respond quickly to experimental variables. Furthermore, the newly recognized nutritional value and rich cultural history of chia seeds offer the possibility of highly motivating and educational interdisciplinary extensions, especially appropriate to students in the middle grades.…

Steinberg, Richard; Cormier, Sebastien – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2013
This study reports on a content course for science immersion teacher candidates that emphasized authentic practice of science and thinking scientifically in the context of introductory astrophysics. We explore how 122 science teacher candidates spanning three cohorts did and did not reason scientifically and how this evolved in our program. Our…

As part of a 3-wk intersession workshop funded by a National Science Foundation Expeditions in Computing award, 15 undergraduate students from the City University of New York collaborated on a study aimed at characterizing the voltage dynamics and arrhythmogenic behavior of cardiac cells for a broad range of physiologically relevant conditions…
