New Strategies for Teaching Introductory Oceanography: A Collaborative and Interactive Approach

我要求从启动研究基金中获得资金，首先在所有三个机构（FAMU， FSU和TCC）完成这些课程的实施。其次，我想评估和比较这种教学方式在每种情况下的有效性。课程评估策略将包括自我评估。在选择评估时（由导师和同事），以及学生评估。在为学生和同行评估选择适当的评估工具时，我将严重依赖我在科学教育领域的同事以及在这一领域具有专业知识的其他PFSMETE研究员的建议。

DGE-0001789I am requesting the funds from this starter research grant to first complete the implementation of these course at all three institutions (FAMU, FSU, and TCC). Second, I want to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of this teaching style at each of these settings. Course assessment strategies will include self-evaluations. When selecting the evaluation (by mentors and colleagues), and student evaluations. When selecting the appropriate assessment tools for the student and peer evaluations I will rely heavily upon the advice of my colleagues in science education as well as my other PFSMETE Fellows that have expertise in this area.
