The Importance of Sharing Current Scientific Information with Biology Teachers in Weekly Newsletters
Peer reviewed
Direct linkMerav Siani; Ohad Levkovich; Roee Ben Nissan; Awni Gabara; Moshera Alatawna; Anat Yarden – American Biology Teacher, 2025
High-school teachers and students do not usually have access to scientific research advances because original research papers contain many highly specialized words that are specific to the discipline. Scientific newsletters (SNs) summarize current scientific research advances and trends. During the 2022-2023 school year, 21 SNs teaching biology…

Pablo Antonio Archila; Brigithe Tatiana Ortiz; Anne-Marie Truscott de Mejía – Science & Education, 2025
There is a consensus within the science education community that primary scientific literature is a legitimate and desirable educational resource. Moreover, critical reading of scientific articles is widely recognized as a key aspect of scientific literacy. However, university science courses rarely provide students with explicit opportunities to…

Undergraduate physics and astronomy students are expected to engage with scientific literature as they begin their research careers, yet reading comprehension skills are rarely explicitly taught in major courses. We seek to determine the efficacy of a reading assignment designed to improve undergraduate astronomy (or related) majors' perceived…

Christine E. King; Beth A. Lopour – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2025
Challenge: In engineering classrooms, generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, can supplement traditional teaching methods and have the potential to improve learning outcomes. However, there are also significant drawbacks, including the possibility of over-reliance on the tools and the hindrance of critical thinking, which…

Oliver, Kristin A.; Werth, Alexandra; Lewandowski, H. J. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
Participation in undergraduate research experiences (UREs) has been identified as an important way of increasing undergraduate retention, interest, and identity within the sciences. Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have been shown to have similar outcomes to UREs but can reach a larger number of students at one time and are…

Robinson, Kristy A.; Perez, Tony; White-Levatich, Arianna; Linnenbrink-Garcia, Lisa – Journal of Experimental Education, 2022
The end of college is a key transition point when students prepare for the workforce or graduate school, and when competence beliefs that have been shaped throughout college play a particularly important role in decision-making processes. This study examined the roles of two competence beliefs, self-efficacy for scientific tasks and science…

In 2014, the NIH Diversity Program Consortium (DPC) launched an initiative to implement and evaluate novel interventions at a variety of academic institutions across the country to engage undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds in biomedically-related research. The local intervention examined in the current study provides Critical Race…

Our study investigates the effect of hybrid courses and reading scientific articles on scientific literacy of biomedical engineering students. Participants included about 100 undergraduate and graduate students who participated in one or two hybrid courses. Our research goal was to study the effect of reading scientific articles and participating…

This study aimed to investigate how argument-driven inquiry (ADI) activities impact pre-service teachers' views of the nature of scientific inquiry (NOSI), with a specific focus on climate change. To this end, an ADI approach was used to teach climate change, where the aspects of NOSI were explicitly taught. A sample of 24 pre-service teachers…

Open innovation makes an open, collaborative process of creating new or improved ideas, methods, or products, based on the exchange of information and knowledge between different agents. Several Web-based platforms have been developed to support this collaborative process. These platforms act as "innovation markets," virtual meeting…

Smith, Lynette M.; Yu, Fang; Schmid, Kendra K. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Replication and reproducibility are an important component of scientific research. One reason research is not replicable is the misuse of statistical techniques. Educators can teach the importance of research replication by having students perform a replication study as part of a graduate assistantship or their coursework. In this article, we…

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a valuable tool in various chemical and biological fields for investigating the presence and quantity of proteins of interest in given samples. The high importance of the assay makes it widely used in biological research and hence a crucial skill to master for up-and-coming scientists. A major…

This project engaged Ghanaian secondary pupils in authentic science and engineering activities by using model biodigesters that reduce organic waste and produce biogas and fertiliser. The pupils' activities paralleled scientists' activities, such as asking research questions and designing experiments. Our study included two cohorts of Ghanaian…

Genfu Wu; Kejie Wu – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
Course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) exposes an entire class of students to scientific research and is thought to increase students' knowledge retention in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education. Microbial engineering is an interdisciplinary subject that combines science and engineering. We transformed a…
