Teaching Undergraduate Physical Chemistry Lab with Kinetic Analysis of COVID-19 in the United States
Peer reviewed
Direct linkDylan K. Smith; Kristin Lauro; Dymond Kelly; Joel Fish; Emma Lintelman; David McEwen; Corrin Smith; Max Stecz; Tharushi D. Ambagaspitiya; Jixin Chen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
A physical chemistry lab for undergraduate students described in this report is about applying kinetic models to analyze the spread of COVID-19 in the United States and obtain the reproduction numbers. The susceptible-infectious-recovery (SIR) model and the SIR-vaccinated (SIRV) model are explained to the students and are used to analyze the…

Undergraduate-Level Biology Students' Application of Central Dogma to Understand COVID mRNA Vaccines
Download full textSaya Shahoy; Michelle Du; Ola Mostafa; Aliyah Parker; Dylan Martirano; Melinda T. Owens – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2024
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has underscored the importance of mRNA vaccines. The mechanism for how such vaccines work is related to the core biology topic of the central dogma, which students often misunderstand despite its importance. Therefore, we wanted to know whether students can apply their biology knowledge of central…

Herrick, Imogen R.; Sinatra, Gale M.; Lombardi, Doug – Science Teacher, 2023
There has never been a more pressing need for students to learn how to evaluate scientific information online than during the COVID-19 outbreak. Information, misinformation, and disinformation spread quickly across online news and social media platforms. This misleading or incorrect scientific information about infectious diseases could lead to…

Inés Martinez Pena; Blanca Puig; Araitz Uskola – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2024
Systems thinking (ST) is an essential skill for understanding complex issues, making predictions and informed decisions. This research explores how students applied ST in complex health contexts using the 'One Health' (OH) approach. OH highlights the interdependence relationship between animal, human and ecosystemic health (including plants).…

Bergman, Daniel J. – Clearing House: A Journal of Educational Strategies, Issues and Ideas, 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic provides an opportunity for teachers to explicitly address nature of science (NOS) themes during instruction. Aligned with key NOS categories in the "Next Generation Science Standards," this article discusses events and trends from the pandemic that teachers can use to help students understand values and methods of…

Xiang, Lin; Diamond, Scott – Science Teacher, 2022
Over the past year, educators have developed curricula teaching about the COVID-19 pandemic (Reed 2020; Royce 2020; Sadler et al. 2020). Many of these curricula feature computer simulations of epidemic dynamics (Kelter 2020; Sadler et al. 2020). Because an epidemic pattern is an emergent property of interacting human behaviors, it is crucial for…

King, David; Snyman, Magrieta; McGinitie, Elizabeth G. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on university course design, implementation, and instruction, with many courses being offered remotely rather than face-to-face to prevent the spread of COVID-19. As the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, more and more courses are transitioning back to face-to-face instruction. In this article, we…

Sergio Calavia; B. Bravo-Torija; B. Mazas – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
This paper presents an analysis of the socio-scientific dimensions which 46 11th graders, enrolled in the subject scientific culture, consider to justify their COVID-19 vaccination decision and how they managed to combine and integrate these dimensions before and after working on a sequence of activities aimed at learning about argumentation in…

Çingil Baris, Çigdem – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2020
A virus is a small, infectious particle that lives inside a host. Today, viruses have an important role in our daily life. The reason for this is that viruses, including coronavirus (COVID-19), are affecting many people in the world. The most important measure that can be taken to stop the spread of the disease will be self-taken measures along…

Tebeck, Claudette – Science Teacher, 2021
School closures in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic led to kids asking pertinent questions about why they were not in school, especially some students suffering financial hardship. Virtual classrooms became the mundane venues for students to piece together the pandemic puzzle and unpack unseen inequities. This article examines disparities that…

Simon, Uwe K. – American Biology Teacher, 2021
The current COVID-19 pandemic shows how little many people know about viruses. Yet apart from COVID-19, the world has observed epidemic spread of another SARS virus, of the Ebola virus, and of the Zika virus during the last two decades. The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is still one of the most dangerous viruses worldwide. Some types of the…

Cevik, Aynur; Saracoglu, Sibel; Kaya, Hasan – Journal of Education in Science, Environment and Health, 2022
This study was carried out to determine the views of science teachers about the inclusion of epidemic diseases in science curriculum. Phenomenology, one of the qualitative research designs, was used as the research design in the study. The study group consists of six science teachers who have at least five years of experience and have participated…

Kafai, Yasmin B.; Xin, Yue; Fields, Deborah; Tofel-Grehl, Colby – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
The pandemic outbreak of COVID-19 has highlighted an urgent need for infectious disease education for K-12 students. To gather a better understanding of what educational interventions have been conducted and to what effect, we performed a scoping review. We identified and examined 23 empirical researcher- and teacher-designed studies conducted in…

Madden, Lauren – Electronic Journal for Research in Science & Mathematics Education, 2020
In this personal narrative reflection, the author examines her experiences teaching everyday science during the COVID-19 pandemic. She provides examples of curiosity-driven explorations with her own twin sons related to growing plants and baking bread. Through social media she shares her home experiences with others, building a remote community of…

Australian and New Zealand universities commenced a new academic year in February/March 2020 largely with "business as usual." The subsequent Covid-19 pandemic imposed unexpected disruptions to anatomical educational practice. Rapid change occurred due to government-imposed physical distancing regulations from March 2020 that…
