I am happy to have found the JMBE YouTube playlist I had forgotten about! Tonight I watched the session on “CURES increase students’ scientific self-efficacy, scientific identity, and self-assessed skills.” Grace Borlee and Carolina Mehaffy were the guests, and the session was moderated by Stanley Maloy, JMBE Editor-in-chief. Mehaffy is at Colorado State University along […]
