Megan, Ben, and Solaire’s paper, Developing expertise in 1H NMR spectral interpretation, is now available in the Journal of Organic Chemistry. For this investigation, they used eye tracking and retrospective think-aloud interviewing to investigate undergraduate and doctoral chemistry students’ understanding and […]
Field and Ina’s paper, Investigating students’ reasoning over time for case comparisons of acyl transfer reaction mechanisms, with collaborators David Kranz and Nicole Graulich in Germany, is now available in Chemistry Education Research and Practice. In this research, they describe a case […]
Nick, Solaire, and Catherine’s paper, Reporting Biochemistry to the General Public through a Science Communication Writing Assignment, is now available in the Journal of Chemical Education Working with a biochemistry professor, they implemented a writing assignment that tasked students with attending a […]
Solaire, Field, Michael, Sabrina, and Emma’s paper, Exploring student thinking about addition reactions, is now available in the Journal of Chemical Education. Through this research, Solaire, Field, Michael, Sabrina, and Emma captured students’ thinking as they worked through two addition […]
In this paper, Field and co-authors analyzed students’ writing about an organic reaction mechanism using a framework to identify features necessary for mechanistic reasoning. Thy qualitatively described how students engaged in writing about features of the mechanisms, and quantitatively examined […]
Welcome to our newest Shutlz Group member! Amber Dood recently graduated from the University of South Florida with her PhD in chemistry. She now holds a post-doc position in the Shultz group and is working on the MWrite project. Check […]
Solaire, Audrey, Gabrielle, and Catherine’s paper titled Capturing student conceptions of thermodynamics and kinetics using writing has been accepted to the Chemistry Education Research and Practice journal. In this project, students responded and wrote peer reviews for a Writing-to-Learn assignment […]
This semester we’re welcoming grad students Danielle, Nick, and Ina to the Shultz Group!
Congratulations to Eleni for having her first manuscript accepted to JRST! We celebrated with a classic #papercake. Here paper on graduate teaching assistants’ teacher knowledge and teacher identities is linked here.
Welcome Dr. Blair Winograd to the group! Blair did computational chemistry with the Zgid group and joins us as a MIDAS Data Science Fellow working on the MWrite project.
