Purpose: From an anthropological perspective of hominin communication, the human auditory system likely evolved to enable special sensitivity to sounds produced by the vocal tracts of human conspecifics whether attended or passively heard. While numerous electrophysiological studies have used stereotypical human-produced verbal (speech voice and…

Erickson, MaryGrace; Wattiaux, Michel A.; Karcher, Elizabeth L. – Natural Sciences Education, 2020
Educators often compare quantitative scores on motivational traits across time (e.g., pre- and post-semester), yet few studies have examined the longitudinal measurement equivalence of such traits or described typical trajectories. Our research explored the longitudinal measurement of individual interest in two cohorts of an introductory animal…

Trask, Sydney; Reis, David S.; Ferrara, Nicole C.; Helmstetter, Fred J. – Learning & Memory, 2020
Relative to males, female rats can show enhanced contextual fear generalization (demonstrating a fear response in a safe or neutral context) dependent on estrogen receptor activation. The current experiment aimed to extend this finding to cued fear conditioning. Females in low-estrogen phases of the estrous cycle showed good discrimination,…

Fontaine, Christine J.; Gräfe, Erin L.; Pinar, Cristina; Río, Itziar Bonilla-Del; Grandes, Pedro; Christie, Brian R. – Learning & Memory, 2020
Cannabinoid receptors are widely expressed throughout the hippocampal formation, but are particularly dense in the dentate gyrus (DG) subregion. We, and others, have shown in mice that cannabinoid type 1 receptors (CB1Rs) are involved in a long-term depression (LTD) that can be induced by prolonged 10 Hz stimulation of the medial perforant path…

Dunn, Lily – FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, 2020
The wonderful plants and animals of the Daintree Rainforest in Queensland, Australia, are at risk of extinction. They and the rainforests of the world must be protected by taking action on climate change.

Aaron J. McKim; Tyson J. Sorensen; Catlin M. Goodwin; Sarah Ware Wilkinson – Journal of Agricultural Education, 2025
School-based agricultural education offers a rich context to illuminate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Understanding and enhancing STEM learning within agricultural education requires a deep understanding of how agricultural educators currently illuminate STEM concepts within their curriculum. Building upon the work of…

Regular evaluation of environmental education is important for quality assurance and the self-assessment of educational institutions such as zoos. However, capacity is often lacking. Therefore, this study presents instruments that can be used to track the impact of educational programs on connection to nature, interest in species conservation,…

Denise McWilliams; Ash Mady; Cindi Smatt – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2025
Efficient and profitable business operations today rely on the use of advanced technologies. This is particularly evident in managing family farms in the competitive broiler chicken industry. Farmers raising broiler chickens from chick to optimum weight in five weeks require investments in and use of smart farming technologies employing the…

William Norris; Kalynn Baldock – Journal of Agricultural Education, 2025
Many early-career educators report a lack of confidence in teaching animal science and suggest that comprehensive professional development would improve their abilities to engage diverse audiences in animal science instruction. This lack of confidence in providing quality instruction in key agricultural education areas could leave some educators…

Bae, Sarah E.; Richardson, Rick – Learning & Memory, 2018
Recent studies have shown that exposure to a novel environment may stabilize the persistence of weak memories, a phenomenon often attributed to a process referred to as "behavioral tagging." While this phenomenon has been repeatedly demonstrated in adult animals, no studies to date have examined whether it occurs in infant animals, which…

Xiang, Wenxi; Li, Tingting; Gao, Tianhang; Wang, Bin – Learning & Memory, 2019
The laterodorsal thalamic nucleus (LD) is believed to play roles in learning and memory, especially spatial tasks. However, the molecular mechanism that underlies the cognitive process in the LD remains unclear and needs to be investigated. So far, there is plenty of evidence indicating that plasticity has been in some of the cortical or…

Fitzgerald, Miranda S.; Bismack, Amber S.; Gotwals, Amelia Wenk; Wright, Tanya S.; Washburn, Erin K. – Science and Children, 2022
An important part of promoting scientific literacy is developing disciplinary literacy practices, such as obtaining information from text and sharing investigation results through talk and writing. To support students to develop disciplinary literacy practices in science, educators must provide opportunities for them to work with multiple…

Collins, Courtney; O'Riordan, Ruth – Environmental Education Research, 2022
Although zoos have an increasingly important role to play in educating the public about conservation and inspiring pro-conservation behaviour, they are not firmly established as leaders of conservation education. A multitude of logistical challenges and methodological limitations in zoological education research are contributory factors to this.…

Humenberger, Hans – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2022
Two examples of mathematical modelling are explored. Firstly, optimising the distance travelled when jumping from a swing is discussed. The second concerns optimising the distance travelled by monkeys when swinging from branch to branch.

One of the learning outcomes of learning Animal Embryology and Reproduction is that students can explain concepts about reproduction or embryology theory. Since concept map-based learning can improve students' critical thinking skills and analysis, and support their interest in learning, this study analysed the ability of students enrolled in the…
