Deng-Guang Yu; Qiang Li; Wenliang Song; Lin Xu; Kaihui Zhang; Tao Zhou – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The essence of higher education is to cultivate innovative talents for the society. Hence, higher education institutions (HEIs), on the one hand, need to respond to social needs and government policies. On the other hand, they need to keep pace with the times and improve the details of teaching to improve the effectiveness of education. In this…

Idit Adler; Christopher Karam – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Students often perceive school science as purely theoretical, overloaded with facts, and mostly disconnected from their school, home, and community life. One way to bridge the disconnection between school science and lived experiences, and support students in realizing the relevance of science to their everyday life, is by enabling them to…

Anna Cartwright; Edward Cartwright – Journal of Economic Education, 2024
In this article, the authors analyze data accumulated over 10+ years of teaching market interaction using a simple classroom experiment. The experiment is designed to teach first-year undergraduate students the basics of supply and demand and market efficiency. In total, they analyze data from 85 teaching sessions and 243 individual markets. They…

Manninen, Marianna; Vesterinen, Veli-Matti; Salminen, Juha-Pekka – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
The autumnal leaf color change is a familiar phenomenon to most students living in temperate climate zones. The extraction and analysis of the pigments of the autumn leaves provide an engaging way to study the phenomenon utilizing both simple as well as more sophisticated analytical methods. In this laboratory experiment, students extract the red…

Christianson, Anna M.; Waters, Carolyn A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
We describe a guided-inquiry laboratory experiment for instrumental analysis in which our students test an improved protocol for the recycling of silver chloride to produce nontoxic waste. Students are provided with samples of silver chloride that they created as waste products in a previous lab experiment and tasked with performing a stepwise…

Phayphung, Wissarut; Rakkapao, Suttida; Prasitpong, Singha – Physics Education, 2022
The article introduces a low-cost Arduino sensor into the Young's modulus determination laboratory for physics university students. A stainless steel ruler is used as a cantilever beam. Its free end attached a mass is slightly bent and released to make it oscillate as a simple harmonic motion. The Arduino sensor detects the moving mass's frequency…
