In my Master of Science program, I learned that genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and inheritance. As it relates to genetic variation (GV), I learned that if there is no GV between individuals in a population the group will not evolve. More than all, I have learned that genetics determines our...See Marcella's full profile

I took two years of calculus as a high school student and another 3 semesters in college. I struggled with calculus for a while before it "clicked" and I started to understand it intuitively. I've also had a lot of practice sharing that understanding with my peers. I think Calculus is when a student truly starts to...See Corey's full profile

I have taught university-level courses with...See Kathleen's full profile

Students often expect AP Statistics to be "an easy AP" since it is not Calculus. AP Statistics is, however, a deceptively difficult course. It is not a typical math course. It is more like a science course that uses math and the concepts are often not intuitive. I can relate to both struggling and...See Wanda's full profile

My favorite teaching moment is helping students create...See Samuel's full profile

In my experience, many students feel great anxiety about the Science section. They are intimidated by technical terms, chemical names, and Greek letters. They benefit primarily from discovering that the ACT Science test doesn't actually require much knowledge of science. It's primarily a...See Ken's full profile
