Active learning increases student performance in science, engineering, and mathematics
Scott Freeman,Sarah L. Eddy,Miles J. McDonough,Michelle K. Smith,Nnadozie Okoroafor,Hannah Jordt,Mary Pat Wenderoth +6 more
TL;DR: The analysis supports theory claiming that calls to increase the number of students receiving STEM degrees could be answered, at least in part, by abandoning traditional lecturing in favor of active learning and supports active learning as the preferred, empirically validated teaching practice in regular classrooms.

Network dynamics and field evolution : The growth of interorganizational collaboration in the life sciences
TL;DR: In this article, a recursive analysis of network and institutional evolution is offered to account for the decentralized structure of the commercial field of the life sciences, and four alternative logics of attachment are tested to explain the structure and dynamics of interorganizational collaboration in biotechnology using multiple novel methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
The journal coverage of Web of Science and Scopus: a comparative analysis
Philippe Mongeon,Adèle Paul-Hus +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the coverage of active scholarly journals in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus (20,346 journals) with Ulrich's extensive periodical directory (63,013 journals) to assess whether some field, publishing country and language are over or underrepresented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A question of belonging: race, social fit, and achievement.
