A systematic review of the literature was conducted to identify course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) courses within the years 2000 through 2020. The goals of this review were to: (1) create a resource of STEM CUREs identified by their discipline, subdiscipline, and level; (2)…

Dulai, Kamal S.; Kranzfelder, Petra; Signorini, Adriana; Pusey, Téa S.; Valencia, Andrea Presas; Urbina, Christian; Oviedo, Néstor J. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2022
Student-centered pedagogies promote student learning in college science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) classrooms. However, transitioning to active learning from traditional lecturing may be challenging for both students and instructors. This case study presents the development, implementation, and assessment of a modified…

Genné-Bacon, Elizabeth A.; Wilks, Jessica; Bascom-Slack, Carol – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2020
Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are an effective way to expose large numbers of students to authentic research, yet most laboratory courses still use traditional "cookbook" methods. While barriers to using CUREs have been captured postimplementation, little is known about the decision mindset before implementation…

Ellingson, Charlene L.; Edwards, Katherine; Roehrig, Gillian H.; Hoelscher, M. Clark; Haroldson, Rachelle A.; Dubinsky, Janet M. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2021
Following professional development (PD), implementation of contemporary topics into high school biology requires teachers to make critical decisions regarding integration of novel content into existing course scope and sequence. Often exciting topics, such as neuroscience, do not perfectly align with standards. Despite commitment to enacting what…

Spencer, Kimberly C.; McDaniels, Melissa; Utzerath, Emily; Rogers, Jenna Griebel; Sorkness, Christine A.; Asquith, Pamela; Pfund, Christine – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2018
An evidence-based research mentor training (RMT) curricular series has been shown to improve the knowledge and skills of research mentors across disciplines and career stages. A train-the-trainer model was used in the context of several targeted approaches aimed at sustainability to support national dissemination of RMT and expand the network of…

Hewitt, Krissi M.; Bouwma-Gearhart, Jana; Kitada, Heather; Mason, Robert; Kayes, Lori J. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2019
We investigated the effects of a laboratory curriculum developed using the socio-scientific issues (SSI) framework to contextualize scientific and socially relevant issues for students. Using self-determination theory and hierarchical linear modeling, we examined the effects of the SSI curriculum relative to a control curriculum on student…

Eaton, Carrie Diaz; Highlander, Hannah Callender – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2017
Calculus is one of the primary avenues for initial quantitative training of students in all science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields, but life science students have been found to underperform in the traditional calculus setting. As a result, and because of perceived lack of its contribution to the understanding of biology, calculus…
