Biology Teaching Assistant Project (BioTAP 2.0): A Network to Build a Capacity for Collaborative Research on Biology Graduate Teaching Assistant Teaching Professional Development (GTA TPD) First Round: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 10:50 AM Second Round: Saturday, June 24, 2017 at 10:55 AM
Speakers: Gili Marbach-Ad, University of Maryland Additional Authors: Elisabeth Schussler, University of Tennessee, Knoxville; Grant E. Gardner, Middle Tennessee State University; Kristen Miller, University of Georgia; and Judith S. Ridgway, The Ohio State University
capacity for collaborative research on biology graduate teaching assistant teaching professional development (GTA TPD). By helping practitioners assess their own programs, and work with others to compare assessments across institutions, the network will build the empirical data necessary to make data-driven decisions about programmatic practices. The year-long BioTAP 2.0 Scholars program leads selected cohorts of interested stakeholders through the process of designing and engaging in a scholarly research project on some aspect of a biology GTA TPD. In the round table session, we will discuss the goals and accomplishments of BioTAP 2.0 to date, including data from a national survey on GTA TPD efforts, and information about the Research Development Sessions and Virtual Learning Communities, which are components of the BioTAP 2.0 Scholars Program. We will also share experiences from the first RDS meeting.
Speakers: Julee Farley and Susan Magliaro, Virginia Tech Additional Authors: Liesl Baum, Virginia Tech Abstract: At the Center for Research in SEAD Education (CRSE), we have established partnerships with a consortium of offices who are interested in the pre-college initiatives at Virginia Tech to provide expertise in broader impacts, with a specific focus on PK12 and STEM/SEAD-related work. To support that mission, the CRSE is creating the Partnering Research and Impact Measurement for Economic Development (PRIMED) database. This database creates a reporting structure around the broader impacts of outreach activities occurring at Virginia Tech to create a deliberate broader impacts identity at the University. The presentation will include information that speaks to the importance of establishing interconnection across university offices that traditionally operate as silos as well as describing the process of creating a large database with multiple stakeholders and utilizing existing databases. The table discussion will include time for questions and dialogue around the successes and struggles of this process.

University-Community Partnerships for Experiential Learning to Increase STEM Retention and Success First Round: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 10:50 AM Second Round: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 3:50 PM
Speakers: Sharon Locke and Jessica Krim, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Additional Authors: Abstract: Experiential learning in the community offers many benefits to undergraduate students, including opportunities to apply classroom learning in relevant contexts, develop productive work habits and skills, participate in professional networking, and serve communities in need. This roundtable is a forum to discuss best practices for community-based STEM learning that supports undergraduate retention and success. Discussants are encouraged to share examples of experiential learning programs that effectively increase self-efficacy, scientific identity, and/or professional belonging; collaboration practices that foster strong partnerships with community organizations; and surprising/unanticipated program benefits for students, universities, and the community. Communities of practice for engaging faculty in STEM course reform Only Round: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 11:40 AM Speakers: Laura Hahn, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Additional Authors: Geoffrey Herman, Jose Mestre, Matthew West, and Jonathan Tomkin, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Abstract: At large research-intensive universities, teaching STEM at scale has posed instructional challenges to faculty who are unaccustomed to addressing pedagogy in a collective, sustainable manner. We will discuss ways to implement communities of practice, which can help integrate the qualities of a strong, collaborative research culture into the context of teaching. Action Research Fellowships: Communities of Practice in support of non-tenure track faculty First Round: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 11:40 AM Second Round: Friday, June 23, 2017 at 3:50 PM
Speakers: Julie Risien, Oregon State University Additional Authors: Abstract: Established through an NSF WIDER Grant, the ESTEME@OSU Action Research Fellows program supports instructors already using evidence-based practices in lower division science, mathematics or engineering courses to take the next step in educational innovation through action research; that is, asking and answering questions about practice and collecting evidence in their own classroom to inform practice. Fellows are supported in three ways: 1) participation in an interdisciplinary community of instructors with similar goals to apply what research tells us about learning in the classroom; 2) Yüklə 1,09 Mb.
