The Chemical and Biological Sciences unit at Montgomery College is exploring the use of new technologies to enhance teaching practices and learning environments as part of the MC 2025 master plan. The MC Foundation calls for educational project proposals through the Innovative Grants program. The proposals must align with one or more specified themes; student success, graduation, completion, retention, transfer, equity and inclusion, newly enrolled students and social justice. Based on work from Bacca, Geroimenko, and Radu, we hypothesize that the use of AR and IVR will increase enrollment, retention, and engagement in the PCR BIOL 150 lab at MC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
