paper day! 🥳

we tried @astrobites lesson plans with a bunch of students to see how it affected them (hint: it was good!)

students felt better about reading research literature afterwards, plus lots of other positive effects as described in our paper: https://t.co/Do9hpsHIzz

@SJDJ Zahra Hazari (FIU) and Chandralekha Singh (Pitt) both have done research in those areas.

Do you teach/TA undergraduate astronomy courses?

You may be eligible to participate in a research study investigating the efficacy of Astrobites-based lesson plans! Check out this page for more info: https://t.co/PomAem3iHR

Talking with other instructors is a natural way to learn about innovative teaching strategies. Today's post by @dianac_sci provides insight in what instructors talk about with other instructors and how departments can foster those connections. #DBER https://t.co/r7lz7kVVjK

Providing students with more time on their exams should improve their grades, right? Today's study suggests that might not be the case. https://t.co/OaKvODRNY2

Interested in using videos to help students learn key concepts? Today's study suggests that embedded questions and graphic overlays can do that but only if used in combination. https://t.co/7KAHzq040L
