We offer ways that the inspection paradox can be usefully presented, even in the most elementary statistics courses, and provide guidance about how it can be revisited subsequently in the same course and in succeeding courses. Numerous situations in which the inspection paradox might occur are mentioned, and mathematically simple demonstrations…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to consider the contribution of privacy pedagogy to the role of the university. Design/methodology/approach: This paper takes up two arguments; first, it puts forward Arendt's characterization that the purpose of the university is to prepare a new generation for the responsibility of renewing the shared human…

Teaching regionally focused introductory undergraduate courses can be challenging when students do not have similar levels of formal geography experience. One way to offset this problem is to introduce core geographical concepts as a framework to help refocus attention on the myriad spatial dynamics at work in a region. This article explores how…

Implicit bias education in the health sciences is crucial for disrupting the individual and systemic oppressive values that contribute to inequitable access to healthcare. In short, implicit bias can kill. Through a Playbuilding approach, dramatic vignettes on implicit bias were shown to undergraduate health science students in a performance…

In this paper, we propose a novel method for deriving Russell-Saunders terms of complex atomic systems with an arbitrary number of equivalent electrons in orbitals with a higher azimuthal number. The method can be regarded as an extension of the classic works of Douglas, McDaniel, and Hyde but with several notable improvements, including the…

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…

A laboratory experiment has been designed for teaching laboratories aimed at training students in the basics of spectroscopy in junior and senior level undergraduate chemistry courses. Despite the ubiquity of light-based tools in modern science, students often find it difficult to comprehend light and light-matter interactions. A portable…

Introduction: An innovative undergraduate helping skills course where students learn, practice, and apply a problem management model with a peer volunteer on a non-clinical issue across three supervised helping meetings is presented. Statement of the Problem: Undergraduate helping skill courses are typically offered as in-class role-plays. This…

Following the frameworks for research and inquiry-based learning, this paper describes a series of activities that can be used in undergraduate management classrooms to expose students to management research. The focus of these activities on finding reputable article summaries allows instructors to introduce management research, explain how to…

Undergraduate learning assistant (ULA) programs are widely recognized for their positive impact on student engagement, academic performance, and classroom inclusion in large-enrollment STEM courses. However, far less attention has been given to the professional development of the ULAs themselves. This perspective paper accompanies the article…

Beginning in the first semester, it is important to affirm students' gender identities and also provide level-appropriate information about pronouns and gender-inclusive language, including the current cultural contexts. As students take advanced courses, incorporating topics that address gender diversity provides opportunities for them to develop…

One of the objectives of the undergraduate physics curriculum is for students to become aware of the connections between formal physical principles and personal experience. However, research has shown that awareness of connections between the abstract and the experiential tends to deteriorate, sometimes significantly, after instruction in…

Our initial impetus for this project stems from the development of UNCP's Indigenous Cultures & Communities (ICC) graduation requirement. We recognize the efforts of individual faculty representing disciplines in the arts, education, humanities, library, and nursing to redesign class activities and courses. Our purpose is to share models and…

When embarking on our journey of learning in mathematics, we may envision a linear path of modules for acquiring mathematical knowledge and understanding to reach a predetermined outcome. However, this is a partial representation since the outcome and path are developing and adapting and our learning is continuously emerging. In this paper, our…

In this senior capstone course, students participate in a semester-long project to observe an organization while applying communication theories and concepts that they have learned throughout their time in the program. After observing the organization and conducting informal interviews with some of its members, students identify a…
