Y. Justin Lim; Brandon Wong; Katie Macfee; Alexa Cueva; E. Aaron Martinez; Cameron Paxton; Robin Barnes; Eric Kleinsasser; Travis J. Williams – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Most students enter college without any exposure to polymer science, which leads to the poor understanding and slow implementation of plastic recycling programs in the United States. To address the knowledge gap in chemical recycling, we introduce a 2-part laboratory experiment that was conducted in multiple high schools and public outreach events…

Carmen Velez; Kristie Cheng; Sabrina Woodward; Noor Nazeer; Gabriela Nicole Hislop Gomez; Cody O. Crosby – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Many undergraduate chemistry and biochemistry students pursue careers in healthcare. Biomaterials, designed to harmonize with the complexity of the human body, have become increasingly significant in medicine as implants, drug delivery vehicles and tissue scaffolds. We believe it is essential that undergraduates are exposed to biomaterial…

Yongguang Gao; Na Chen; Xiaoye Jiang; Xiaochun Yang – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
The substitution of carbonyl compounds with liquid bromine as a brominating agent is the most commonly employed synthesis method for a-bromoacetophenone and its derivatives. However, liquid bromine possesses certain drawbacks, such as volatilization, high toxicity, strong corrosion, and poor reaction selectivity, which limit its application and…

Zhengang Han; Lijun Zhang; Xiaoquan Lu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Owing to factors such as poor water solubility of luminol and the instability and easy decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H[subscript 2]O[subscript 2]), the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection of H[subscript 2]O[subscript 2] through the luminol electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system are limited. Herein, we propose a water-soluble…

Jinjie Liu; Christoph Benning – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2025
Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) provide students with valuable opportunities to engage in research in a classroom setting, expanding access to research opportunities for undergraduates, fostering inclusive research and learning environments, and bridging the gap between the research and education communities. While…

Peter Lampert; Peter Pany; Niklas Gericke – Journal of Biological Education, 2025
Sustaining a broad diversity of plants is key for a sustainable future. For instance, providing a variety of flowering plants in urban and agricultural landscapes mitigates the current decline of pollinators and biodiversity in general. Therefore, educating about the diversity of flowering plants has high current relevance for biology and…

Shelby M. Cagle; Ashley A. Anderson; Nicole C. Kelp – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2025
Teaching science in an age of disinformation and misinformation requires empowering students to address inaccurate information in evidence-based ways. Science communication scholarship highlights the growing importance of inclusive and relational approaches for addressing misinformation. Thus, we developed, implemented, and evaluated an…

Michael Giamellaro; Cory Buxton; Joseph Taylor; Jean-Philippe Ayotte-Beaudet; Kassandra L'Heureux; Marie-Claude Beaudry – Science Education, 2025
The vast and rapidly growing amount of science education research makes it challenging for researchers to navigate and synthesize developments across the field, particularly concerning broad concepts evolving along divergent paths. To address this issue, a novel review methodology employing bibliometrics and network analysis was tested to identify…

Dwi Oetomo; Sri Widoretno; Murni Raml; Baskoro Adi Prayitno; Bowo Sugiarto; Chandra Adi Prabowo – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2025
Scientific writing skills were an essential competency for biology students in preparing effective research reports because they enabled students to communicate their research findings clearly and professionally. These skills were crucial for ensuring that students could present their work in a manner that adhered to scientific standards,…

Rebecca L. Hite; Gina M. Childers; Jill Hoffman – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2025
The transformation of natural history and science museums from receptacles (temples) to facilitators (forums) of knowledge fosters discourse around issues relating to science and society, known as social scientific issues (SSI). To assist guests with enhanced object-based learning, extended reality (XR) technologies are thought to leverage the…

E. Löfström; H. Pitkänen; A. Cekanauskaite; V. Lukaševiciene; S. Kyllönen; E. Gefenas – Journal of Academic Ethics, 2025
This research focuses on how research ethics committee and integrity board members discuss and decide on solutions to case scenarios that involve a dimension of research ethics or integrity in collaborative settings. The cases involved issues around authorship, conflict of interest, disregard of good scientific practice and ethics review, and…

Laura C. Giojalas; Leticia García Romano; Giuliana Lingua; Rocío B. Martín – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2025
Molecular Cell Biology (MCB) should be taught according to the scientific practices, avoiding cumulative and memory knowledge construction, but favoring scientific thinking. A way to achieve this goal is to apply activities involving scientific news, which construct knowledge through significant learning and the development of critical thinking.…

Premo, Joshua; Cavagnetto, Andy; Collins, Larry; Davis, William B.; Offerdahl, Erika – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023
Increasing student engagement with the social practices of science (i.e., communication, collaboration, and critique) is a goal throughout K-16 science education and provides an opportunity for science educators to leverage student discourse to optimize learning. Yet how instructors can encourage forms of discourse which predict increased…
