Peer reviewedSantos, João H. P. M.; Brumano, Larissa P.; Pessoa, Adalberto, Jr.; Rangel-Yagui, Carlota O. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Protein PEGylation refers to the covalent binding of polyethylene glycol (PEG) moieties to a protein and has been increasingly applied, mainly in the biopharmaceutical industry. This technique may increase bioavailability and stability by decreasing immunogenicity and proteolytic attack. Given the industrial interest and the relevance of this…

Lyrica Lucas; Anum Khushal; Robert Mayes; Brian A. Couch; Joseph Dauer – International Journal of Science Education, 2025
Educational reform priorities such as emphasis on quantitative modelling (QM) have positioned undergraduate biology instructors as designers of QM experiences to engage students in authentic science practices that support the development of data-driven and evidence-based reasoning. Yet, little is known about how biology instructors adapt to the…

Vigeant, Margot; Golightly, Amy – Chemical Engineering Education, 2022
In 2019 and 2020, third-year chemical engineering majors completed a concept inventory at the beginning and end of the semester in their thermodynamics course. Midway through spring semester of 2020, the course switched to emergency remote instruction, replacing hands-on inquiry-based laboratory activities (IBLAs) with short videos. Analysis of…

Chaudry, Amtul Mujeeb – Physics Teacher, 2020
Arduino microcontrollers are becoming increasingly popular in the physics/astronomy community. These devices can provide more in-depth labs on mechanics, electricity and magnetism, light and optics, etc., in addition to programming. These devices can be readily utilized to reach more non-physics/astronomy majors and underrepresented STEM students.…

Teaching Undergraduate Physical Chemistry Lab with Kinetic Analysis of COVID-19 in the United States
Dylan 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…

Computer-simulated experiments have been gaining popularity over hands-on experiments in science education, given the availability of technology and the trend of distance learning. Past studies have focused primarily on comparing the learning outcomes and user experiences of the two experiment modes. In this study, we used an eye tracker to…

Marta Romero Ariza; Antonio Quesada Armenteros; Antonio Estepa Castro – European Journal of Teacher Education, 2024
A shift from teaching to learn to learning to think is necessary to promote critical thinkers. Since teachers tend to replicate the educational models they have experienced as students, new references are needed. In order to address these concerns, we present an interdisciplinary intervention in initial teacher education and analyse its impact on…

Elizabeth B. Vaughan; A. Montoya-Cowan; Jack Barbera – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
The Meaningful Learning in the Laboratory Instrument (MLLI) was designed to measure students' expectations before and after their laboratory courses and experiences. Although the MLLI has been used in various studies and laboratory environments to investigate students' cognitive and affective laboratory expectations, the authors of the instrument…

Background: Science teaching and learning, as discursive practices, occur through the utilization of various semiotic modes. Gestures play a pivotal role as an embodied mode that acts in conjunction with speech in oral communication settings, such as classrooms. Previous research on gestures in chemistry and science education has illuminated how…

The under-representation of women in undergraduate science courses is well-documented. One significant challenge is that women may both perceive and receive less recognition from their science peers about their abilities as scientists than men. Here we investigate the presence and nature of such gender biases in peer recognition in the discipline…

High-impact practices (HIPs) are educational practices that foster student success. HIPs have not been widely used in cancer education and research despite the need for students to develop key transferable skills and cultivate social responsibility. Our study addresses this need by implementing four community-based learning HIPs within the context…
