Grace I. Borlee; Traci Kinkel; Bettina Broeckling; Bradley R. Borlee; Christie Mayo; Carolina Mehaffy – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2024
Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) provide opportunities for undergraduate students to engage in authentic research and generally increase the participation rate of students in research. Students' participation in research has a positive impact on their science identity and self-efficacy, both of which can predict integration…

Barnhart, Sheila; Benner, Kalea; Latimer, Abigail; Pope, Natalie – Journal of Teaching in Social Work, 2023
Over a quarter of the members of the social work profession are working in health related settings yet preparing students to work in such multi-disciplinary environments, with hierarchical organizations and problem-focused systems, can create value conflicts, principally with the strengths-based paradigm inherent in social work practice. In order…

Joseph F. Mirabelli; Jennifer G. Cromley; Karin J. Jensen – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2024
Doctoral students experience high rates of mental health distress and dropout; however, the mental health and wellness of engineering doctoral students is understudied. Studies of student persistence, wellness, and success often aggregate fields together, such as by studying all engineering students. Thus, little work has considered the…

Kapitza, Martina; Tueffers, Leif; Schulenburg, Hinrich; Kremer, Kerstin – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2021
Professional societies and institutes have stressed the importance of a dialogue between scientists and the public over the past decades. Especially the life sciences include many highly relevant research topics pertaining not only to scientific progress but also to decision-making in society. Surprisingly, few educational researchers and…

Hall, David J.; Martin, Charles G.; Welford, Michael; Debbert, Stefan L. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2018
The development of new medicines holds particular fascination for chemistry, biochemistry, and biology students interested in a career in medicine or the life sciences. The identification and refinement of lead compounds to treat diseases requires researchers to be facile in a number of different disciplines including organic synthesis,…

Brandt, Edward N. – Journal of Research Administration, 2017
The field of biomedical research has undergone several changes in recent years. These include increased funding, the rapid development in scientific knowledge which speeds up the obsolescence of equipment, facilities and knowledge and the growing complexity of scientific problems. Research administrators can take steps to address these changes…

Guy, Batsheva R. – i.e.: inquiry in education, 2020
Participatory evaluation tools have been shown to be effective for program development in various settings, including in higher education. Taking student perspectives into consideration is key for graduate program development, particularly in interdisciplinary programs. The current study utilizes Group Level Assessment (GLA), a participatory…

Samsa, Gregory P.; LeBlanc, Thomas W.; Locke, Susan C.; Troy, Jesse D.; Pomann, Gina-Maria – Journal of Curriculum and Teaching, 2018
The ability to bridge multiple disciplines is critical to the successful practice of collaborative statistics, yet the literature on statistical education devotes relatively little attention to how this skill can be taught. Our goal here is to describe a general conceptual framework within which a curriculum on communication and leadership could…

O.; Wyatt, Letisha R.; Covarrubia, Alonso Delgado; Zell, Adrienne; Adrienne, Thomas E.; Morris, Cynthia; Crespo, Carlos J. – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2021
Research experience provides critical training for new biomedical research scientists. Students from underrepresented populations studying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are increasingly recruited into research pathways to diversify STEM fields. However, support structures outside of research settings designed to help…

Nkhoma, Nelson Masanche – FIRE: Forum for International Research in Education, 2018
Some African higher education institutions (HEIs) were founded on the notion that they would serve the specific needs of African communities. Other HEIs have borrowed the concept of community-engaged scholarship (CES) from the USA as a strategy for achieving relevance. Nonetheless, African HEIs continue to be criticized as imitators of Western…

Mountford, Nicola; Coleman, Matthew; Kessie, Threase; Cusack, Tara – Studies in Higher Education, 2020
Interdisciplinary research networks are increasing, with professionals encouraged to undertake research across disciplines to increase innovation, creativity and knowledge. More recently, this interdisciplinary focus is being mirrored by the establishment of interdisciplinary doctoral research networks. But do these networks work? And if so, how…

Taylor, Stephen – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2018
Whilst interdisciplinarity has become a central concern of research and learning in geography, few from the discipline have considered the practical facilitation of interdisciplinarity in the classroom. Module convenors, I argue, must pay greater attention to how learners engage and negotiate with peers and perspectives from other disciplines. In…
