RESEARCH

(https://circle.wustl.edu/)

Develops new pedagogical methods, including those that utilize collaborative learning

and active learning. Collaborates with faculty in the discipline when appropriate.

Currently my research focuses on two broad areas: improving learning and inclusion in

introductory STEM courses, and promoting and enhancing faculty development.

As co-Director of the Center with M. McDaniel (psychology). The center was initially

funded by the Office of the Provost and opened July 2011. Currently, the center is funded

through institutional funds and external funding. CIRCLE is focused on research

concerning teaching and learning. The mission of CIRCLE is to improve teaching and

student learning at Washington University and in higher education more broadly by

providing a bridge between faculty teaching in the disciplines and researchers in

cognitive and learning sciences and discipline-based education research. Through

collaborative projects, the goals of CIRCLE are to 1) foster implementation of

innovations in teaching across the university, which include those that apply research

Updated 12-06-2018 5

from the cognitive and learning sciences and discipline-based education science; 2)

support research to evaluate the effectiveness of these innovations for enhancing student

learning and retention of knowledge; 3) and disseminate the results of these classroom-

based evaluations using experimental methods to the Washington University community

and to the national and international communities.

Introductory Learning in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and

Mathematics)

Peer-Led, Team Learning (PLTL) Group

(https://circle.wustl.edu/collaborations/peer-led-team-learning/ )

Main architect of the Peer-Led Team Learning program for General Chemistry at

Washington University, with expansion to the Calculus series and a modified

program in the School of Engineering and Applied Science. Developed a multi-

disciplinary general-studies course required for first-time peer leaders to learn

facilitation and group-management skills. Papers on evaluation published in J. Chem.

Edu.

Studying the discourse in collaboration with K. Sawyer (Education, now at University

of North Carolina) and M. Hogrebe (Education). Study on the discourse that occurs in

PLTL groups; results are being used to modify the training of peer leaders. Two

chapters in a book Productive Multivocality in the Analysis of Group Interactions,

edited by D. Suthers and K. Lund. A manuscript on this quantitative discourse project

was published in Chem. Edu. Res. and Prac.

Collaboration with M. Repice (Teaching Center) and G. Szteinberg (lecturer,

Chemistry) examining the discourse in General Chemistry peer-leader essays.

Examining over 10 years of essays to identify peer-leading best practices as told by

peer leaders. A manuscript is in preparation.

The Transition Program for General Chemistry

(https://circle.wustl.edu/collaborations/transition-program/ )

Leads the development of a transition program for students who are under-prepared

for General Chemistry. This program includes the development of an online pre-

matriculation tutorial and diagnostic exam to identify the less-prepared students. The

program also includes extended-length POGIL recitations focused on problem

solving, integration into PLTL groups, and specialized semi-structured peer-mentored

homework groups. The evaluation shows improved performance by students in this

program; one J. Chem. Edu. paper was published, and was selected as one of three

finalists for the 5th annual Maryellen Weimer Scholarly Work on Teaching and

Learning Award (spring 2013).

Determining Concept-building Approaches (Learning Approaches) of General

Chemistry Students (chemistry and psychology)

(https://circle.wustl.edu/collaborations/learning-approaches-in-general-chemistry/ )

Starting in fall 2009, collaborating with M. McDaniel (Professor of Psychology) to

determine the concept-building approaches of students in General Chemistry using a

function-learning task that is independent of chemistry knowledge, and compare

course performance between two learning groups (algorithmic/rote and theory-

based/rule-based). Interventions will then be introduced to help the lower performing

group succeed in General Chemistry. Two papers published, J. Chem. Edu. and J.

Applied Res. In Memory and Cognition.

Effect of Promoting a Growth Mindset in General Chemistry on Course

Performance

(https://circle.wustl.edu/collaborations/psychological-interventions-chemistry/ )

In collaboration with M. McDaniel and the instructors in General Chemistry, we

developed and implemented a course-based growth-mindset intervention in General

Chemistry in Fall 2015 and 2016. Using a random-assignment classroom experiment,

we compared the performances of students in the control and experimental groups.

Performance results revealed an achievement gap between underrepresented minority

and white students in the control group, but no sex-based gap. Critically, after

adjusting for variation in academic preparation, the mindset intervention eliminated

this racial achievement gap. Qualitative analysis of students’ written reflections from

the intervention shed light on their experiences of the mindset and control treatments,

deepening our understanding of mindset effects. We have implemented a similar

experiment this fall (2018) in General Physics. One paper published in Chem. Edu.

“Fostering inclusive classrooms and student support systems through psychosocial

and metacognitive strategies,” is project funded by HHMI 2017-2022. PI with co-PIs

J. Duchek (psychological & brain sciences, Cornerstone director), K. Miller (chair

and professor of biology), J. Smith (dean of the College of Arts & Sciences). This

project focuses on creating an inclusive learning environment where students from all

demographic groups are welcome and equally likely to be successful in STEM

disciplines. The project comprises a campus-wide plan that targets psychosocial and

metacognitive factors related to inclusion, with a focus on interacting with three key

groups who work with students in their first two years of undergraduate study (i.e.,

STEM faculty, advisors and student-affairs professionals, and undergraduate peer

leaders). This campus-wide project is being designed, implemented, and evaluated by

CIRCLE and collaborators throughout campus.
