Connecting Scientists With Students Using Social Media in an Undergraduate Science Course
(SAGE Publications, 2023-05-10)Social media tools like Twitter allow scientists and other technical subject area experts to interact with the public in previously-unimaginable ways. Here we present a lesson plan in which undergraduates in a non-majors ... -
Teaching the Inevitable: Embracing a Pedagogy of Failure
(International Society for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2023-05-12)Failure is often taken as a given in higher education, as an inevitable part of learning new things. Yet, it remains a part of learning that students tend to fear, and faculty tend to neglect. As faculty, we do not always ... -
Consequences of climate-induced range expansions on multiple ecosystem functions
(Nature Portfolio, 2023-04-10)Climate-driven species range shifts and expansions are changing community composition, yet the functional consequences in natural systems are mostly unknown. By combining a 30- year survey of subalpine pond larval caddisfly ... -
Partial Tidal Disruptions of Main-sequence Stars by Intermediate-mass Black Holes
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2023-05-10)We study close encounters of a 1 M (circle dot) middle-age main-sequence star (modeled using MESA) with massive black holes through hydrodynamic simulations, and explore in particular the dependence of the outcomes on the ... -
Empirically evaluating flaky test detection techniques combining test case rerunning and machine learning models
(Springer, 2023-04-28)A flaky test is a test case whose outcome changes without modification to the code of the test case or the program under test. These tests disrupt continuous integration, cause a loss of developer productivity, and limit ...
