As a student who just entered college, I was overwhelmed by the heavy coursework load. The learning objectives listed on the syllabus showed a high expectation from the instructor. With so much I need to memorize, learn, and master, I felt like a man knowing a destination to go to, but having no map for guidance. I am fortunate that the professor of my introductory food science and human nutrition course shared this book during class when I was a struggling first semester freshman – for it changed my academic experience in college entirely. After reading the book and practicing many of the suggested strategies for a month, I scored a 100% on my chemistry test, while my best score prior to that was a B-!</p><p><i>Teach Yourself How to Learn</i> was written by Saundra Yancy McGuire with Stephanie McGuire. Dr. McGuire is the Director Emerita of the Louisiana State University Center for Academic Success and a retired Professor of Chemistry at LSU. As an educator, the workshops Dr. McGuire conducted were acclaimed for improving student's learning dramatically over the past three decades. Aggregating her empirical experiences from helping students, as well as her evidence-based learning knowledge, Dr. McGuire shares with her readers strategies to enhance academic performance and even how to learn deeply and effectively for a lifetime.</p><p>The book contains two major parts - practical learning strategies and psychological motivation of learning. I love how Dr. McGuire starts with a scenario that vividly depicted me after my first midterm exam: a student receiving a much lower grade than expected, who then starts to sit further back in the classroom. Dr. McGuire points out that the student is not able to use metacognition, a term coined by John H. Flavell (1976), the foundation of her learning strategies. Defined as the ability to think about one's own thinking process, metacognition empowers a passive student to become a proactive problem solver. An active learner seeks solutions to the problems they encounter, instead of relying on other people's answers. For example, a metacognitive student focuses on the process of applying concepts and solving problems on practice exams, instead of memorizing procedures required for each problem. In other words, thinking and learning are processes that a student can monitor, plan, and control.</p><p>Dr. McGuire proposes that the journey to metacognition is paved by Bloom's Taxonomy. Ascending from shallow learning to deep learning, Bloom's Taxonomy is marked by six cognitive steps – remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating.

By Ron Ritchhart. 2015. Jossey-Bass: <b>ISBN</b>: 978–1118974605, 384 pages.</p><p>We often refer to students’ “critical thinking” skills as something that is important for their success in both their degree program and their future careers. Many of us are actively engaged in strengthening those skills. And many of us wonder if we could do more to enhance our students’ critical thinking skills. This is especially important as we live through a pandemic and our interactions with students have undergone a major shift from primarily in-person to primarily online and via e-mail or text. How do we encourage our students to think more deeply about the material they are learning, rather than memorize a pile of facts and promptly forget them after an exam?</p><p><i>Creating Cultures of Thinking</i> addresses the issue of students’ habit of memorizing and dumping surface information. The author, Ron Ritchhart, notes that this habit is an unfortunate side effect of the focus on standardized testing on K-12 education, where so much rides on a handful of (often multiple choice) exams. This focus, Ritchhart states, actually encourages memorization, rather than thinking. So how do we start moving away from, perhaps unconsciously, promoting memorization to pass exams and towards activities that encourage students to really get into material, ask thoughtful questions, and make connections between what they have learned and what they experience in the real world?</p><p>This shift requires a cultural change, Ritchhart writes, with eight major forces shaping the new culture. In order of discussion in the book, they are expectations, language, time, modeling, opportunities, routines, interactions, and environment. <i>Expectations</i> are what the teacher and student expect the other to do, as well as what a given effort will produce. The vocabulary used to discuss course content and actions related to the content comprise <i>language</i>, while <i>time</i> is not necessarily the course duration or class length, but the time spent on thinking. Similarly, <i>modeling</i> is not just the instructor telling students “do what I do,” but showing students how to approach thinking about information, questions, and problems. The instructor should also create <i>opportunities</i> for thinking that encourage all students to participate, regardless of ability. <i>Routines</i>, such as think-pair-share, help provide guiding structure to thinking exercises, allowing students to more quickly reach deep thinking without getting distracted by tangential topics. The <i>interaction</i> between the instructor and students is critical to thinking: who is doing more of the thinking work or more of the discussion – the instructor or the students? Promoting student thinking means that they should be doing more of the mental heavy lifting than the instructor.

Effective online learning requires design characteristics that support learning that crosses traditional disciplinary boundaries. The example of educational delivery of food safety encompasses multiple disciplines to prepare students for real-world situations, practical problem-solving, and to be “future proof” as food safety becomes more quantitative. This study explicates how six simulation-based learning modules were evaluated, two each in microbiological growth/inactivation, food process dynamics with microbiological growth/inactivation, and risk assessment. Each group of three modules was targeted to the students in undergraduate food science and engineering programs. Altogether, the 6 modules were implemented and assessed in 17 courses at 14 universities over 5 years. The effectiveness of the module-based approach was sustained across subject matter (microbiology, process, and risk), disciplines (food science and engineering), and their implementations. Students’ and instructors’ survey responses indicated the modules’ value in real-world and practical problem-solving ability. Instructors were also motivated to implement the modules as they saw the potential for improvement in student understanding, how modules reinforced course learning outcomes, the quality of support provided with modules, and their ability to replace existing course assessment without adding work for the instructor or the students. This self-learning, module-based approach to introduce interdisciplinary content employed has proven successful. The template for making these modules is described in sufficient detail so future modules can be built for a wide variety of subject matter beyond food safety.</p>","PeriodicalId":44041,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Science Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/1541-4329.12199","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47954969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Computer simulations were able to provide varied experiences to prepare more entry-level practitioners (Turner, William, Bennett-Wood, Lehman, &amp; Peck, <span>2000</span>). Since that time, the simulation experience in education has evolved to create environments with some dramatic effects. Healthcare simulations include patients that can speak, have a pulse, and even spit blood. Simulations allow educators to create a safe environment for students to become competent without the risk to real clients (Song, Yun, Kim, Ahn, &amp; Jung, <span>2015</span>). Dietetics education, as accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND), requires documentation of educational approaches like simulation (ACEND, <span>2016</span>).

However, in various laboratories and collaborative environments, we have noticed a lack of proper technique for making solutions. Instead of measuring the moles of solute then filling up to the needed volume with solvent, we observed many individuals would measure the moles of solute then add a premeasured volume of solvent, resulting in more dilute solutions. This disturbing trend is particularly of interest for high-molarity solutions, such as sucrose solutions common in sensory science. The higher the molarity, the greater the skew from the incorrect technique. Therefore, we designed a survey investigating the prevalence of improper solution-making techniques. We had 811 participants of which 186 we determined likely to make solutions based on field of study and job description. The 186 participants were categorized by current position as faculty, postdoctoral fellow, research assistant, or graduate student. Our results indicate that almost a third of scientists may be making molar solutions incorrectly. Given the current crisis of reproducibility in science, and the importance of concentration in a variety of applications, the possibility of the concentrations being mismatched from one research group or even one lab member to another is concerning.
