Biology Scholars Program 08-09 Research Residency Expectations
2008 SoTL Institute:
Scholar Research:
1. An evaluation of community college student preparedness for upper-level biology coursework. 2. Inquiry-based laboratory projects in microbiology: making the grade or just raising it? Using cases and complex problem solving in a large introductory environmental studies class. Promoting student engagement in genetics: incorporating research projects into the genetics lab experience. Can popular science literature convince biology majors to consider a research career? An examination of the efficacy of Enquiry-based Learning for improving student scientific thought. Impacts of team-based learning in introductory biology students. Do interdisciplinary team-taught courses enhance student learning? Cooperative learning can be transformed to collaborative learning through designed instruction and learning experiences. The impact of letting non-majors control aspects of a general biology course: Getting back more than you give away! What is the efficacy of roleplay when introducing students to basic concepts in immunology as compared to traditional lecture? Can students really learn microbiology online? Incorporating case studies into a physiology course using in-class versus an online discussion format. Do non-majors learn genetics differently or at a different rate than majors? How do non-majors and majors think about difficult topics in genetics? The role of inquiry research in building science process skills. Using phylogenies to help introductory biology students understand the evolutionary basis of biodiversity. Exploring student misconceptions about DNA, genes, and chromosomes. Can Blackboard based supplemental instruction inprove student grades and increase retention in A&P class? What should the prerequisites for an introductory interdisciplinary course be? Investigating the relative importance of competence in informal logic and prior biology and chemistry knowledge in student achievement in an introductory biochemistry course. Enhancing student metacognition in physiology with the help of Bloom's Taxonomy.
