Abiotic Microhabitat Parameters of the Spruce—Fir Moss Spider,Microhexura montivagaCrosby and Bishop (Araneae: Dipluridae)

Autor: Travis Seaborn, Kefyn M. Catley

Publikováno v: Southeastern Naturalist. 15:61-75

The Spruce—fir Moss Spider (Microhexura montivaga) is a federally endangered species found only in the high-elevation southern Appalachian spruce—fir forests. Little is known about the basic ecology of the spider. The goal of this project was to

Deconstructing evolution education: The relationship between micro- and macroevolution

Autor: Emily G. Schreiber, Laura R. Novick, Kefyn M. Catley

Publikováno v: Journal of Research in Science Teaching. 51:759-788

With applications of Tree of Life data becoming ever more prevalent in everyday contexts, tree thinking has emerged as a vital component of scientific literacy. This article reports a study testing the hypothesis that instruction in natural selection

When Relationships Depicted Diagrammatically Conflict With Prior Knowledge: An Investigation of Students’ Interpretations of Evolutionary Trees

Autor: Kefyn M. Catley, Laura R. Novick

Publikováno v: Science Education. 98:269-304

Science is an important domain for investigating students’ responses to information that contradicts their prior knowledge. In previous studies of this topic, this information was communicated verbally. The present research used diagrams, specifica

Snakes and Eels and Dogs! Oh, My! Evaluating High School Students’ Tree-Thinking Skills: An Entry Point to Understanding Evolution

Autor: Brenda Caldwell Phillips, Laura R. Novick, Kefyn M. Catley

Publikováno v: Research in Science Education. 43:2327-2348

The biological community is currently undertaking one its greatest scientific endeavours, that of constructing the Tree of Life, a phylogeny intended to be an evidenced-based, predictive road map of evolutionary relationships among Earth’s biota. U

Reasoning About Evolution’s Grand Patterns

Autor: Laura R. Novick, Kefyn M. Catley

Publikováno v: American Educational Research Journal. 50:138-177

Tree thinking involves using cladograms, hierarchical diagrams depicting the evolutionary history of a set of taxa, to reason about evolutionary relationships and support inferences. Tree thinking is indispensable in modern science. College students�

Assessing Students' Understanding of Macroevolution: Concerns regarding the validity of the MUM

Autor: Kefyn M. Catley, Laura R. Novick

Publikováno v: International Journal of Science Education. 34:2679-2703

In a recent article, Nadelson and Southerland (2010. Development and preliminary evaluation of the Measure of Understanding of Macroevolution: Introducing the MUM. The Journal of Experimental Education, 78, 151–190) reported on their development of

Reading Phylogenetic Trees: The Effects of Tree Orientation and Text Processing on Comprehension

Autor: Kefyn M. Catley, Andrew T. Stull, Laura R. Novick

Publikováno v: BioScience. 62:757-764

Although differently formatted cladograms (hierarchical diagrams depicting evolutionary relationships among taxa) depict the same information, they may not be equally easy to comprehend. Undergraduate biology students attempted to translate cladogram

Reasoning about evolutionary history: Post-secondary students' knowledge of most recent common ancestry and homoplasy

Autor: Nancy P. Morabito, Laura R. Novick, Kefyn M. Catley

Publikováno v: Journal of Biological Education. 44:166-174

Evolution curricula are replete with information about Darwin's theory of evolution as well as microevolutionary mechanisms underlying this process of change. However, other fundamental facets of e...

Interpreting evolutionary diagrams: When topology and process conflict

Autor: Kefyn M. Catley, Laura R. Novick, Courtney K. Shade

Publikováno v: Journal of Research in Science Teaching. 47:861-882

The authors argue that some diagrams in biology textbooks and the popular press presented as depicting evolutionary relationships suggest an inappropriate (anagenic) conception of evolutionary history. The goal of this research was to provide baselin
