It's the end of summer + the final post in the summer SoTL (scholarship of teaching and learning) series: Thinking about Data Collection, Analysis, and Timelines
What topic would you like to investigate through classroom-based research?

The first poster session of #smbe2023 is tonight, in person in 2 venues (Estense castle and San Paulo cloisters), and also online in gathertown. I’m presenting my work on an active learning activity I use to teach #evolution to undergraduate students. It is in Session 21- Science For Everybody: Education and Outreach in Molecular Biology and Evolution. Poster 17 in person and poster 1 within session 21 on Gather! #ActiveLearning #DBER #TeachingAndLearning

Letting our curiosity about our teaching and our students' learning guide the research process can help us turn our "wonderings" into researchable topics for classroom research projects.
What do you wonder about your teaching & your students' learning?

An interesting introduction to the "Scholarship of Teaching and Learning", or #sotl . I closed my Biology research lab after 15 years to focus my research on how to teach #Biology to undegraduate students (I have the same professor position). This text explains the different paths that one can take to become a researcher on teaching and learning: "Classroom assistance: the scientists turning the tools of their trade to education" #DBER https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-04509-3

Who is coming to #SMBE 23 in Italy? I will submit an abstract for the symposium "Science for everybody: education and outreach in molecular biology and evolution" organised by Tugce Bilgin Sonay and Debora Monego. We will see how it goes! #sotl #DBER #education #evolution https://www.smbe2023.org/

@matthras @MicrobialLife Thanks for sharing. In the U.S. at least, these #STEMeducation #EdResearch focused #faculty use the #DBER acronym. There's a couple of nice free ebooks on the topic:
Discipline-Based Education Research: Understanding and Improving Learning in Undergraduate Science and Engineering https://nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/13362/discipline-based-education-research-understanding-and-improving-learning-in-undergraduate

Hey PER people, Adrienne Traxler and I are hiring a post-doc! The position is to work on a project using Social Network Analysis and the COPUS to better understand active learning. Interested parties should reach out to me!

Piece of #teaching scholarship I cite (and use!) more than any other in my work: Tanner (2013). Structure Matters: Twenty-One Teaching Strategies to Promote Student Engagement and Cultivate Classroom Equity. Maybe you'll use it too!
