Teaching Introductory Life Science Courses In Colleges Of Agriculture: Faculty Experiences, Mark Balschweid, Neil A. Knobloch, Bryan J. Hains

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

Insignificant numbers of college students declaring STEM majors creates concern for the future of the U.S. economy within the global marketplace. This study highlights the educational development and teaching strategies employed by STEM faculty in teaching first-year students in contextualized life science courses, such as animal, plant, and food sciences. Teaching strategies employed by faculty were reported as largely influenced by the “way they were taught.” Faculty members shared they used ‘lecture’ and ‘laboratory’ interchangeably as both educational environment and instructional practice. This study provides evidence for engaging university teaching faculty in a systematic process of professional development in teaching …

Community Based Learning, Greg Burke

Assessment & Feedback Cases

Community based, practical task, requiring assimilation of theory (covered in lectures and published standards), applying it to a specific location and writing it up as an Audit Report with appropriate recommendations.

Concept Map, Barry Ryan

Assessment & Feedback Cases

Students produce a group concept map (4/group), detailing a food, nutraceutical or pharmaceutical concept. The group decides the choice of content during the initial meetings and storyboarding of the idea(s). The content must address, in some way, a concept related to their course and should be in some way topical. The concept map can contain any form of multimedia (video, sound, audio, animation etc.) but it must be visual, engaging and creative. Supplementary assessment takes the form of an e- portfolio (to assess the journey and process) and a suite of reflective blogs and final reflection (to assess individual contribution).

Self-Assessment Of Employability Skill Outcomes Among Undergraduates And Alignment With Academic Ratings, Denise Jackson

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

Despite acknowledgement of the benefits of self-assessment in higher education, disparity between student and academic assessments, with associated trends in overrating and underrating, plagues its meaningful use, particularly as a tool for formal assessment. This study examines self-assessment of capabilities in certain employability skills in more than 1000 Australian business undergraduates. It evaluates the extent to which student self-assessments differ from academics, in what ways and the influence of certain individual and background characteristics - such as stage of degree, gender and academic ability - on rating accuracy. Explanations for documented disparities are presented, in addition to implications and strategies …

The Effects Of Living In A Springboard House During One's First Year At The University Of Northern Iowa, Laura Trettin

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This study examines the effects and benefits of college students residing in a Springboard house community at UNI during one’s entire freshmen year. Springboard house communities are unique to the University of Northern Iowa as they provide a living environment in which first-year students can self-select to participate. However, there is no common class that complements the community. In addition, the RAs do not go through any separate training to learn how to work with the springboard house students, but they do offer programming that is geared towards first-year students. This study investigated the freshmen experience by gathering data regarding …
