Students fail to transfer knowledge of chromosome structure to topics pertaining to cell division.

CBE life sciences education - 1 Jan 2012

Newman Dina L, Catavero Christina M, Wright L Kate

Abstract excerpt

Cellular processes that rely on knowledge of molecular behavior are difficult for students to comprehend. For example, thorough understanding of meiosis requires students to integrate several complex concepts related to chromosome structure and function. Using a grounded theory approach, we have unified classroom observations, assessment data, and in-depth interviews under the theory of knowledge transfer to...
