DiLisi, Gregory A.; Chaney, Alison; McLean, Stella; Rarick, Richard – Physics Teacher, 2020
Over the past several years, we have contributed several articles to "TPT" that focused on a forensics-style reexamination of historical events. In each article, we presented a case study as a pedagogy for teaching topics from introductory-level physics courses. Recently, we assembled our prior work into a series of…

Arain, Shoukat Ali; Kumar, Santosh; Yaqinuddin, Ahmed; Meo, Sultan Ayoub – Advances in Physiology Education, 2020
Vertical integration is believed to increase motivation by providing context for the learning. In this quasi-experimental study, cohort I took two horizontally integrated modules: structure and function of head, neck, and special senses in the second year, and pathophysiology and clinical sciences in the third year. Cohort II took a combined,…

Anderson, Cynthia M.; Smith, Tristram; Iovannone, Rose – Education and Treatment of Children, 2018
There is a large gap between research-based interventions for supporting children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and current practices implemented by educators to meet the needs of these children in typical school settings. Myriad reasons for this gap exist including the external validity of existing research, the complexity of ASD, and…
