The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of project-based learning on the learning achievement and satisfaction of undergraduate learners in General Psychology. The study included 30 undergraduate students enrolled in a general psychology class. The research utilized a project-based learning management plan, a learning achievement…

Recent interest has highlighted the need for an increase in the representation of students, particularly traditionally underserved students, in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) majors. Instructional leadership approaches that foster an active learning environment have emerged as a means of improving performance in introductory…

Impacts of incorporating active learning pedagogies into a lecture-based course were examined among 266 students across nine research methods course sections taught by one instructor at a large public university. Pedagogies evaluated include lecture only, lecture with small group discussions, and lecture with simulations. Although…

This article will discuss how open educational resources and instructional technology are used to support student academic success and continuous faculty pedagogical development, as well as reduce barriers to access at an R1 university. This article uses case examples from two instructors from a Mathematics and Computational Sciences department…

Flipped classrooms are gaining popularity, especially in psychology statistics courses. However, not all courses lend themselves to a fully flipped design, and some instructors might not want to commit to flipping every class. We tested the effectiveness of flipping just one component (a module on junk science) of a large methods course. We…

Food science laboratory courses are traditionally taught as a series of preplanned laboratories with known endpoints. In contrast, inquiry-guided (IG) laboratories allow students to ask questions, think through problems, design experiments, then adapt and learn in response to unexpected results. This study examined the effects of converting the…
