Geraets, Ashley A.; Nottolini, Isadore L.; Doty, Constance M.; Wan, Tong; Chini, Jacquelyn J.; Saitta, Erin K. H. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
There is an assumption that graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) have mastery of the chemistry content they are teaching and preparation to instruct students. However, in reformed classrooms, GTAs may need more support and resources. We designed chemistry rehearsal modules for use in a mixed-reality teaching simulator to help prepare GTAs for…

Sarioglan, Ayberk Bostan – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Sciences, 2021
Researchers have studied the effects of using inquiry-based teaching in science lessons on students' learning for many years. Based on this, the purpose of this study is to develop an inquiry-based learning environment scale for middle school science classes and to conduct validity and reliability analyses. The Inquiry-Based Learning Environment…

Button, Patrick; Collins, LaPorchia A.; Denteh, Augustine; García-Pérez, Mónica; Harrell, Ben; Isaac, Elliott; Ziedan, Engy – Journal of Economic Education, 2021
Most courses are taught almost exclusively using lecture and, despite gaps in textbook coverage of empirical economics, do not incorporate academic readings. The authors of this article present a "jigsaw literature review" cooperative learning activity to address these shortfalls. The jigsaw guides students through formulating a position…

Yang, Xiaokun – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2021
In teaching an integrated circuit (IC) design course, many benefits can be gained by offering an industry-relevant project associated with a training to a bundle of electronic design automation (EDA) tools and design methodologies. However, few open-source projects were able to cover the key qualifications needed by industry. Therefore, this…
